Fabulous Fall & Winter Marbled Feathers~Intergalactic Colors!

I started marbling the largest cockatoo feathers and it always takes me a while of throwing down color until I come up with a combination that I love. I love this color combo, I dubbed it Intergalactic Food for Thought.

October New Feathers~ get your engines running!~Holiday Craft Feathers




Here is a preview of the new feathers I have marbled for the winter season and the holidays. They consist of African Grey feathers and cockatoo feathers. These lovely feathers carry good karma all around. They are beautiful and they honor the joyful spirit of the bird (of course they are naturally molted.) When the bird molts them, I collect them and set them on their way to yet another  purpose and another way to enjoy and appreciate these incredible gifts of nature.

Employee Update at QuillnAros

Well, since the summer is ending and a new season is beginning~time to update pictures of my own feathered fiends and sometime contributors (since they lose one feather at a time, they don't contribute much!) They are my inspiration (among other things.)!
My Blue and Gold Quill~age unknown, best guess at least 35

Silvie, the African Grey~ she's a daddy's girl so I am really surprised she didn't take my nose off!
Silvie is at least 45 years old~I adopted her from a rescue

and this is Romeo~he's the youngest, noisiest and mischeivious. Most of the day he's stepping on my
keyboard or playing between my hard drive and keyboard!

Spiry's Fab Eye Jewelry~ with marbled feathers!


I continue to show what artist's are creating with the marbled feathers. This time it is "eye jewelry" and it is fabulous! All I can say is that if I was still living in Manhattan or younger than I am, or going to the opera, or just walking through Washington Square Park, OMG, I would be so proud to wear these. What a fabulous idea from one of our own Etsians. Please visit this shop and see all her eye jewelry~ look closely because you have to see all the intricate detail that is involved.

Oh, and of course please note the marbled feathers.  Visit her shop at http://www.Spirys.etsy.com/
