Sock Monkey Tribute to Michael Jackson on Etsy!

Those of us who belong to the Etsy West Michigan Team know that Dulce of the Monkey Shop makes some of the cutest sock monkeys around.

She has outdone herself this time! Meet Monkey Jackson.....

Here is his description:

"I have designed this new sock monkey as a tribute of the king of pop.
I really loved his music from the 80s to early 90s.
The sock monkey is a beige color. It measures 12" long 4" wide.
It is machine washable, It will come with the black hat with curly hair attached to it, red jacket, black pants, and the glove."
