Update from Ellie

Sock Bunny Ellie was recently adopted by a great family. They were kind enough to send us a photo of her enjoying a day out at Venford Reservoir. Ellie was excited to catch up with a couple of other buddies her new family had previously adopted and see how they were doing. She's looking forward to settling in at her new home and is sure she's gonna be very happy!

Puck's Travel Adventures

Puck was very excited to be the first among his Sock Buddy friends to go on vacation - Las Vegas whoo-hoo! He took along his camera to take some pics for our blog. As you can see, he's quite the poser.

He enjoyed going on the open-top sightseeing bus, feeling the wind in his hair, he thought it was quite an adventure!

Snack time was always Puck's favourite part of the day! Although initially overwhelmed by the choice of coffee beverages, Puck soon became a coffee aficionado.

He developed quite a sweet tooth and enjoyed choosing out his afternoon pastry!

After sampling many of the coffee drinks on offer (a caramel machiato was his least favourite), Puck decided Iced Coffee was his coffee beverage of choice!

It didn't take too long before he got bitten by the gambling bug. He had to learn to budget his spondoolies and not get carried away. Althougth he only won a few dollars, to Puck he hit the jackpot!

Puck was very amused by the modern art and never missed an opportunity to get his photo taken!Now that Puck is home, he's very excited to show his Sock Buddy friends all his holiday snaps and tell them all about his adventures. He's even considering starting up his own blog!

Newly made buds

Just thought we'd introduce you to a few of our new buddies made this week. They can all be found in our online stores.....check them out!

"Harry is a laid back, easy going free spirit! He likes Starbucks coffee, watching sports on TV and coming up with ingenious solutions to complicated problems! Harry has excellent map reading skills and his favourite word is 'muppet'."

"Zack is a highly competitive, sarcastic and quirky little bear. He likes online poker, cheeseburgers and is a fan of classic rock music and heavy metal! Zack believes he can rap, but his abilities are questionable! Zack is afraid of ghosts and his favourite word is 'awesome'."

"Joshua has an obsessive personality and is a little shy. He is extremely perceptive, loves vegetables and has an impressive collection of socks. Joshua likes superhero movies and has an imaginary friend called Ernie."

oooooh new socks!

We finally managed to squeeze in a quick shopping trip to buy some much needed new socks. We just looooove picking out the funky ones - there are sooooo many different colours and patterns, it's easy to get carried away! Hopefully this new haul should keep us busy for the next few weeks....time to get stitching.

Zachary is looking forward to meeting some of his new friends. He can't quite believe this simple pile of socks (and a lot of hard work) will soon be little buddies themselves!

Of course, the little troublemaker that he is, he got a bit too excited and decided to build a sock fort which was a little structually unsound!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! This is only the buddies second Easter so they were very excited and super impressed with their Easter Egg haul this year!

Dexter was very pleased with his egg and won't let it out of his sight. He's never been big on sharing! He rather likes the shiny wrapping foil and hopes to use it to make a superhero cape!

The buddies decided to throw an impromptu Easter party and have over some of their friends. As usual, Wade was very popular with the chicks!

Whilst Zachary had to be told repeatedly to STOP licking the chicken!

Local Craft Shops

We're very excited that our little sock buddies have been accepted into a number of local Devon craft shops. It was a bit of a mad rush to get them all together, have their photos taken and their little bio's created in time for the Easter Weekend but pheeeeew, we managed it....just!

So now our little guys are out there and looking for some nice people to come and take them home. We will be posting a list of stockists shortly so that any of you locals can check them out!

another successful adoption

Last week Jasper went off to his new home in Germany. We’re glad to hear he’s been warmly welcomed and has fitted in well with his new family.

“Yesterday jasper arrived in his new home. I am very happy and I think jasper is too! He likes to play with the children and to sit on the sofa. Today, when the children go to sleep, we will watch a zombie-movie together!”
