WELCOME TO THE ARTFUL ANTLER
Looking for that something special and unique for the bird owner or anyone who is conservation conscious who has everything? You've found the right place. At the Artful Antler, I have made jewelry using bird bands. What are bird bands? They are aluminum bands that are placed onto bird legs to identify them as being bred domestically and not taken from the wild. It also allows people to locate the bird breeder if more information is required and can even help prove ownership.
Although the idea is not an original one as it was earlier thought, all earrings are custom made and can have feathers attached (except for only the hooped earrings). If you wish to make the jewelry more personal, you may opt to send your own personalized bands and/or feathers. I can send a photo of the finished work before sending it out.
If you're also a bird lover, check out the 2nd part of my site under @ Antler Aviary. I own a few birds and belong to a couple of bird clubs (Budgerigar and Foreign Bird Society and Avicultural Advancement Council of Canada).
This site is brand new. Some items such as the guestbook are still to be added as well as some pages are still under construction such as the Photos, Webrings, and Awards pages. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me.
NEW: I'm in the process of posting photos of my work as well as pricing them. It's not done yet but if you are interested, you may click here to start at my bookmarks and then you can navigate from category to category.
If something does grab your fancy and are interested in buying something, I accept cheques and money orders made out to Denise Antler, you can wire money through Western Union and, if you are in Canada, you may send me an Interac Email Money Transfer.
When paying by cheque or money order, please note that shipping would be delayed by a couple of weeks until they clear the bank.
Shipping costs: shipping costs will vary depending on the amount of items being sent. Minimum shipping cost = $4.00.
All prices are in Canadian and US funds as the two dollars are pretty close and it would cost more to ship over the border. Therefore, if you live in Canada, the price you see is the price the item is going for in Canadian funds. For all others across this wonderful world, the price you see is in American funds.
Please note that prices may be changed without any prior knowledge.
Email me if you have any questions.
Keep checking every so often as I'll be adding more, every so often. --Denise
