At the very beginning of this video, you see a lot of bright colors situated behind a green umbrella...THAT'S US! I'm sitting down in bright pink (or was that my sunburn glowing?) and you can sort of see Amy's awesome awning!

We survived the heat!

The Gypsy's Monkey — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 12:10:15 GMT

Oh my goodness it was HOT, HOT, HOT at the Faerie Festival! Even Amy broke a sweat so you know that it was hot!

Thanks to everyone who braved the heat and stopped by to see us! Hope to see everyone at Raqs America...in the air conditioning :-)

Need fans!

Freya — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 02:52:52 GMT

Hey there - we met at MD Faerie Festival, Jenn from A Wicked Pack, we were the booth across from you. I bought a set of fans from you and was wondering if you had a set in blue? If there's any way I can order them and get them before June 26th, that would be wonderful!!!
Did you stay long after we left on Sunday? We just couldn't take the heat anymore, especially with a 2+ hour drive to contend with!

Hi Monkey Friends!

We are trying to put our vending calendar together and we want your input...
What would you like us to carry? Where would you like us to vend? Is there any interest in troupe orders? Would you like a Gypsy's Monkey home show? - think Pampered Chef with Kuchi coins ;-)

Let us know what's on your mind.

We Won the Golden Pumpkin!

The Gypsy's Monkey — Sun, 28 Oct 2007 11:32:53 GMT

...to be sung to the tune of "I've got a golden ticket" from the original Willie Wonka movie :-)

YES! we won the Golden Pumpkin at Anne Marie Garden's "Tales for a Haunted Trail" yesterday. Our tent - while soaked - was decorated to the hilt and we even had a monkey!

There were lots of scary, cute and funny characters that stopped by our booth to get a trinket and a chocolate coin. Quite a few future belly dancers also stopped by.

Thanks go out to the staff and volunteers at Anne Marie Gardens! They awesome - helping us move our stuff, offering help to get set up and the guy who loaded and moved ALL of our stuff while we went to get our cars was the BEST!

Upcoming events...announcements...blah, blah, blah....

The Gypsy's Monkey — Sat, 18 Aug 2007 18:32:07 GMT

Hi everyone... What a month it's been!!!!!

We've been so excited to hear from everyone through emails and would love to see pictures of you in your costumes, jewelry or dancing with swords that you've purchased from The Gypsy's Monkey! Feel free to post them here on tribe!

We are slowly getting our website up and will announce when that is complete. We've been getting online orders lately through tribe and we LOVE it, but you need to know that one of us is on vacation for the week of August 18-25 and the other one goes back to her "real" job on the 22nd! We will certainly do what we can to help you out if there is a costume emergency during this time. ;-)

Our next vending event will be at Latifa's September 8th workshop http://www.bintbeled.com/shows.htm (Latifa's drum solos are sooooooo much fun! Don't miss this workshop!)
We will also be at BIRDS Fest on September 29th http://www.drumtogether.net/ ....hmmm will there be any cute drummers there???

Hope to see everyone soon. Love and bananas to all!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to see us at Kallisti Tribal's "Inappropriate Hafla" and at Yucy's workshop featuring Yasmin and Artemis! Be sure to tell your friends about all of your new goodies!
The monkey needs rest now...rest and bananas...mmmmm...bananas....
