Sock monkey giveaway!



To help ring in Spring after this long, snowy winter, fresh art is giving away this delightful sock monkey to one lucky reader! That's right... you could win this adorable guy. Hand-sewn by fresh art volunteer Randy, this monkey is sporting a colorful hand-knit scarf and hat combo, which he hopefully won't be needing much longer now that spring is almost here!

For a chance to adopt this monkey, just leave us a comment below. Please include your email address* in your comment. We promise we won't use your contact info for any purpose other than this contest!

The contest closes at midnight on Sunday, March 21 (the first day of spring!) The winner will be chosen using random.org. Look for a post announcing the lucky sock monkey recipient on Monday, March 22.

Thanks and good luck!

Love,
Your friends at fresh art

I LOVE FreshArt and would be so happy to give this adorable monkey a good home - to share with his other monkey friends previously purchased through FreshArt. All are a work of heart.

What a wonderful idea -- and I can never have too many sock monkeys! (Ok, maybe I can).

Apparently I'm the only guy among these comments, but I'll still take me a free stylish Sock Monkey :D

(I was just telling a friend last night about them who had never heard of the toy.)
