I have decided to make my own pinatas for all the birds....something special for them to play with that mommy made. Have you priced a pinata for a kid or a bird? WOW! I have priced them at $15.00 and up. Now i needed one for the cockatiels in the aviary, the green cheek conure, the other two conures and phoenix. Of course, all in different sizes to accomidate each bird size. So, for the cost of the balloons, flour, and cray paper i will have made five pinatas for maybe the cost of 1 pinata if that. I have spare foot toys and will pick up some special treats for inside. The picture above is only my first layer. This could take a few days but in the end my babies will have something fun to play with that their momma made them.
As i was blowing up the balloons and waiting for them to pop in my face (lol) i noticed every single bird in the house watching me. So as i worked i talked to them all and told them what they were and that they were for them. Misha, my pomeranian, quietly and intently sat in the chair next to the table watching me and listening. I told him i would next make each of them a special one of their own to rip apart and that there would be some special treats and toys inside.
So, i'll let them dry for today and put another layer on them tomorrow and then get into the store and get my cray paper and maybe some shredded stuff for the inside also. I'm really enjoying this!
