My mom and I go to the thrift store regularily and that is where I find most of my miniature treasures.
Taking the time to go through the kid's toy bags can reap rewards. This is what I found and I was so excited to come home and modify it to make a stand for this bird. I think it is a beauty and the beast toy set.
.
Cutting down a butter container for the bird pan.
Using gorilla super glue is good with plastic.
Painting with a metallic paint to make it all come together.
The bar is a simple dowel and 2 beads
Wood glue works well.
Painting it the same metallic paint.
Here it is all put together. It does work well and I am pleased with the result.
Although Fawkes does look a little big on his stand, I'm happy with this project.
