Felt monkeys

It is already the end of October and we can already say that we are entering the home stretch of the end of 2015 and the arrival of the long-awaited 2016 monkey. The fluffy and airy sheep, the symbol of 2015, which it was, is being replaced by a cheerful and funny monkey. The year promises us many good changes, which will be easy and fun, like the life of a funny monkey. No matter how difficult it is to end the year, you still need to gather your courage and meet the next year with all honors. The New Year is always a new branch into which you need to step with ease with new thoughts, dreams and desires. St. Nicholas Day, New Year, Christmas and Kutia are the most magical holidays of the year, so you need to prepare for the magic accordingly. What's a holiday without a New Year's tree? Its presence in the house is simply necessary, it is especially desirable that it be real with its own forest and natural smell. Throughout the house we hang beautiful garlands, shiny rain, New Year's figures, and we hang beautiful balls on the Christmas tree. And, of course, it is customary from year to year to hang a ball or figurine on the Christmas tree, on which next year’s animal will be.So the 2016 Christmas tree must have a monkey hanging on it. You can buy something with this funny animal in the store, or you can be a little unique and sew funny felt monkeys yourself and decorate both your Christmas tree and congratulate your family and friends with such an interesting gift.
