Hey, hey...

So, having been a Monkees fan for a couple of decades, I was saddened when Davy Jones passed away last week. It wasn't until a few days ago that I could bring myself to watch an episode or listen to their music again...but when I did, it made me smile so much it inspired me to make something cheerful and small and bright.

So I did a few pendants referencing their famous shirts with the double row of buttons, in the three most frequent colors they wore :-)

They're scrabble tile pendants. The tiny white buttons were left over from my plush DeLorean project.





I really like how they turned out!

Oh LD, these are wonderful. You’ve really warmed my heart.

Davy was my first love. In my mind, I can still see the picture of him I had tacked to my bedroom door. He was wearing the red shirt.

Thank you!

My teenage diary has an entry from when I re-discovered the Monkees during their '80s comeback. (I'd seen them as a kid but hadn't paid much attention.) That entry contains the line "Davy is soooooooo cute!!!!" In all caps, I think :-)
