Giveaway Quilt


For those of you who have followed MnM for a while now - you may remember a Quilt Giveaway we had way back when. . .

Well here is a pic for you because the quilt is finally in the hands of the very deserving owner Kylie - who encouraged followers and offered great suggestions!




We need to get less than 30 more followers on Monkey and Me's Facebook Page and we will host another exciting giveaway!! So if you haven't already liked us - head over. And if you have please suggest us to your friends. You don't want to miss out on this one!

As Seen in . . .



It is with a racing heart beat and a smile from ear to ear that I share with you the exciting news. . .

Monkey and Me is in PRINT - wow is that a little surreal or what?

Dumbo Feather is a fabulous mook (half mag half book), that comes out four times a year. Each issue contains the stories of five remarkable, creative people.

I myself only discovered it a short time ago but I find it truly inspirational and always interesting! So when there was an opportunity for new businesses to advertise at a discounted rate I jumped at it!!

With the help of a wonderful friend Michaela, and her beautiful daughter Julia, my own handsome Monkey, and the amazing Amanda Fuller - who has done lots of great design things for me now - the ad was completed and submitted all in about 4 days.

I strongly suggest heading to the website and checking out Dumbo Feather - but for those of you who dont here is the ad. What do you think?

Holidays. . .

With Uni, Buy Hand, Monkey and Me, bread and butter jobs and various other projects - not to mention a teething, fevery, cranky, clingy baby I am feeling a little burnt out.

SO I am on hoildays!! Working holiday still but hoildays non the less! So hopefully by the end of the week I will have some fun pics to share with you and a few exciting bits of news

Do you juggle too many balls? I plan and deballing my life a little when I get home.

Poor Monkey!


Oh my poor blog - I do love you!! And readers I love you too!! I have just been SO crazy busy these last few weeks the days just slip away one after the other and no blogging gets done. Well tonight I am here - and I have so much to tell you all.

The reason I have been a little absent is I am busy with my new little venture that like Monkey and Me I thought would take a while to grow and change into a full fledged plan - but no - it has boomed into my life like freight train and it is full steam ahead!!

I am kicking off a store for Clever Crafty Types to sell their products at very low cost. There will be some sort of membership fee and maybe a small commission on sales but all of this will be put back into building and growing the business so we are all winners. I don't want to make money out of your products but build a place we can all make more money from our wares!

The store will be called Buy Hand and I hope to have the website live and full of products by Octobers end. This will soon be followed by a retail outlet in Townsville, QLD.

If you like the idea check out my other blog Buy Hand - or our Facebook page! I was lucky enough to do a guest post on the beautiful Hello Owl Blog so while you jumping around the net stop by over there too.

This new venture may take some of my attention away from MnM but I am hoping not much at all as I love this business and Buy Hand was born out of a need to find an avenue to sell my products that worked for me.

The exciting thing about our facebook page is that it is interactive and I strongly encourage feedback! I am hoping Buy Hand can suit you too so tell me what you want in a stockist!

Oh and in case you dont follow Monkey and Me on Facebook here are some pics of what I have been up to lately. . .

Tuesday Treasures Double - Stripes


I know I missed last week and I am sorry! Just with a few rush orders and very stressful uni exams lurking I could not justify the time it takes to browse the wonderful wares at MadeIt!!

So this week I am giving you ten stripy treasures to make up for it! Although I still have another exams this week I have been a bit better organised and the last two went well so I am much less in nervous breakdown territory and feeling more confident.

With out any further here is STRIPES by MadeIt
