Spring Flowers

It's daffodil season in this part of Oregon.

The flowering cherries have nearly all come and gone.

Ranunculus 

and of course roses.

 Need some flowers that will stick around longer?

How about some flower crowns or wreaths?

 For your wedding, Coachella festival look ...

 or just for dress up fun. Drop me a note if you are interested in one of these

I have more, check Instagram! 

Victorian Bracket Edison Light

Here's another Bad Monkey House Light. This one has a beautiful scrolled Victorian bracket attached to a vintage piece of wood that had a previous life as part of wall trim. It hangs from a leather thong.
The fixture is also vintage, the old looking, but new cord, has an on off switch on it. The cord runs through an antique metal pulley.
The Edison light is included with this unique, one of a kind wall light.

Pendleton Wool Denim Jackets

This has become my go-to baby gift. 

I hand embroidered the name of Little Miss Isabelle, who will be making her appearance sometime the first week of November (or earlier?) on this tiny jean jacket. On the card are hair bows made of Pendleton Wool. Miss Isabella will fit right in with the Portland hipsters. 

The Pendleton wool on the back of this jacket was washed before stitching, so the jacket will be washable. Important for kids clothes!

These gifts have been so warmly received (pun intended) that I made up more.

This child's size 4 is for sale at Boys' Fort in downtown Portland, Oregon.

Here are four more denim jackets in children's sizes that will also be heading to Boys Fort. 

If there is any interest in adult sizes, I'll also be adding those to the line up.

So, if you have a baby shower, birthday or hey, even need a Christmas present (sorry to scare you with the thought that it's just around the corner) and don't live in the Portland Oregon area, just drop me a note at Bad Monkey House and I can tell you what sizes I have available.

Bad Monkey House Toy Drum Light

Do you march to a different Drummer?

Here is a sweet little vintage toy drum that has a new life as a light.
The skin on this one (that's what you call the part you drum ) has a red shade to it, so the light has a nice rose glow. It would be a great night light, it can either hang on the wall or sit on a table.

Because most every light is created from vintage items, they are all one of a kind.

This one is currently for sale at Boys' Fort in downtown Portland, Oregon.

Bad Monkey House

Why Bad Monkey House?
Where did this name come from?

A few years back the BMH Team moved to the city into a big old house in the historic district.
There on the front of the house was a sign.

Of course, I told everyone that I was living in a box at the Monkey House.


The Bad part came about, after looking for a business name that wasn't taken.

There you go.
Now you know the beginning of this story.
Plus there is also Jeff the Monkey ... more on him later.
