Bongo is a Beanie Baby that I\u2019ve had for a very long time — probably since my 20s, I would say. I used to keep him at the office and he\u2019d guard my desk or stare out the window in Downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin a few years ago. 
This was, essentially, my very first costuming project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The challenge was to make outfits for a beanie monkey using items only found in the office. This included a few things I kept at work, like my origami papers but I never brought anything into the office intentionally to make a project.
