Substitute Jewelry
By Laura Doering
Join in on Laura's fun and experiences of bird ownership, and share in her adventures as the editor of BIRD TALK, the world’s most widely read pet bird magazine, in Wayward Feathers.
I just fashioned my own bird bracelet, going off of the bird bracelet featured on the homepage carousel. I didn’t have time to run to the craft store, but I needed something to deflect my cockatiel’s obsession with my necklace. So I fashioned an edible necklace and bracelet ensemble by stringing up some Cheerios. (Glad I chose Cheerios over Kix when grocery shopping this month!)
This came more out of necessity than just something to do. Gracie broke my necklace clasp … again. That makes the current breakage count seven. I know that because I still have the other six, which are laid to rest in my jewelry box drawer.
Gracie does a certain chirp when she finally cracks the delicate little retractable bar that completes the clasp’s circle. One precise pinch, leads to a “Well, would ’ya look at that?!” wonderment, embodied in that one little chirp.
