| How it All Started Hi there, my name is Julie and I make clothes for monkeys. 2001 started it all when a friend of mine asked me to make clothes for her little capuchin. After I got done laughing, I got down to work. After much trial and error, I designed and created my own special patterns for monkey diaper covers and clothing perfectly suited for these active and wonderful creatures. I consider every item I make a work of art and as individual and special as the monkey. I originally started in South Carolina where I had an alteration/custom sewing business since 1999, called Sew Simply Yours by Julie and which still exists today. I will be celebrating 10 years of service on the first of April, 2009 Sew Simply Monkey came to actually be in July of 2003 when I attended my first monkey picnic and Sew Simply Monkey.com was born. Since then, I have moved the business to Gotha, Florida where I continue to work exclusively on my monkey fashions. Monkeys are not for everyone. They are a lifetime commitment and will change your life and your lifestyle. They are a very high maintenance pet and require special attention and needs, especially when finding a vet who will treat a primate or if it is even legal to owning a primate in your city,county or state. My website is not intended to encourage purchasing a monkey BUT for those who already own one. My monkey designs are fashioned for comfort of the monkey. I believe the durability and quality speaks for itself. I make clothes for their physical protection against the weather, for sanitation purposes. Looking good is always a plus. Since 2003, I have made many new customers and lifetime friends for whom I will always grateful for their assistance, patronage and most important of all, friendship and guidance. Thank you for visiting and hope you enjoy what I have to offer. Julie Staup Sew Simply Monkey |
| Chance, a 5 year old male marmoset, came to us in November of 2003 He was a rescue case. He stayed with friend of mine who took good care of him until his original owner said Chance could not take him back because of family circumstances. Chance and I bonded very quickly and very close. He became my protector and I was became his. We shared a very special relationship and one that could never be repeated with any other animal that I have ever had in my life. He had just turned 10 years old when he passed away. |
