Uses for Whiskers?

[Corinna]

ok I found my book I got started in this with the article in Piecework magazine March/April 1996
The article tells about a book "The art of Hair Work Hair braiding and Jewlery of sentiment" by Mark Campbell Edited by Jules & Kaethe Kliot 1875
If you can't find it I can make copies from mine. It is about 200 pages. It tells a history , how to and shows the different findings you need for each piece.
It's a very intresting book and craft. Just pm me any one who wants copies.

Last week when I thought Brodie was going to die on me, I found one if his whiskers and I cried and cried and cried. I put it in a ziplock baggie & kept it. My hubby thought I was nuts I'm sure. I used to have a bunch of Josie's teeth but I'm not sure where they are anymore. Now that I read this thread, I feel bad becuase I actually just found a whisker laying on the computer desk and threw it in the trash . . . maybe I can fish it out . . .

YAY . . . it was laying right on top! I think I'll put it with the other one in the ziplock baggie!

I've found a few, but never kept them; NOW I will save the one I snagged the other day! And, I have a special little "cat box" to put it in.

You never know...............

My ex and I got into a *serious discussion* (stopped before an actual argument) one day over whiskers. I found one under the sheets when changing the water-bed and blamed it on my punky-butt, Wilbur.
"See what your boy's done now?" Wilbur was always his when he did wrong
"That's Petey's."
"Can't be - my Petey is perfect and would never crawl under the sheets! She knows that mattress protector is there for a reason! Not my perfect girl!"
Well - it was a white whisker - Busted! Wilbur's are all black! Of course I said Wilbur stashed it there to get my perfect Petey in trouble!

We can laugh about it now; but sadly don't live together any more. I had a terrible time dealing with his human kids, and he couldn't stand my devotion to my four-legged children.
"You love those cats more than me!"
"And your kids talk only to you!"

Never thought about saving them, though ceramics with life-like features sounds really cool!
