Today i went to a craft store and got some wooden childrens beads and some little bells and got to work making a variety of toys. *cough* what do you mean it's not balanced *cough* (same as one higher up but with cotton string instead of sisal) And here's my helper...although i wouldn't go as far as saying he was super helpful. He spent the time i worked pulling my earrings and hissing at all the toys i made. Link to comment

I bet they'll all love it!! Though I have a little concern. Those children's beads colouring, do you know how they painted it and also is it polished? I am wondering if it's toxic to bird or not...

I really wanted to get a bag of plastic pony bead (just plain plastic beads) but NOWHERE has them. Does anyone know where i can find some? Link to comment
Guest eterri Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Also, make sure the sticks are colored with food dye. I usually buy the plain ones and color them myself or you can order ones from bird toy parts sites that use food dye instead of harmful paints. Link to comment
