Craft, Arts and Poetry




An accountant i was, in a manufacturing plant nearby, i did not only do costing, taxation, credit control and other accounting concern but i also get used with production process, quality control, process control, 5s, Kaizen and ISO. Production process always interest me irregardless of technicalities. mind you i never had a hard time understanding the production process. The same principle i adopted in making my bird toys.

I consider my works (craft, arts, poetry) as labour of love. I consider each one a piece of me. A piece of me that is shared to the world. Just like every poems i wrote before, the heart lies waiting for appreciation. It was all but accident, with a hobby, an interest turned burning passion, my craft, my arts, my writings, my life.

From the accountant's mind comes the creative work behind Ibonlandia

Ibonlandia's Bird Haven is a new bird store located at Dasmarinas, Cavite. We offer our own breed of birds, with that we guaranteed them to be healthy, playful and energetic. Each bird are well taken cared of by serving them with not just seeds but fruits, vegetables and eggfood regularly. They have also been provided with toys with the hope that it would make them happier and tamer. All of them love to bathe especially in the morning and are all trained to drink in plastic drinking bottles.Other bird supplies and accesories can also be found in the store like bird cages, feeders, food containers, mineral blocks, cuttle bones and bird's antibiotic. And we never ran out of eggfood for we consider it a MUST for our birds.Our concentration is in the making of handcrafted bird toys. Our materials are mostly natural like abaca fibers, vines, wooden beads, plastic ponies, buli, banahaw and even coco fiber. These toys are guaranteed to be bird safe and bird friendly and has been proven and tested with our flocks. Needless to say, these are genuine, exotic, very unique that you can not find anywhere else but with ibonlandia.

DIY Bird Toys - One Creation Led To Another And Another...


A few months back, out of boredom i bought two pairs of parakeets and two pairs of african lovebirds. Upon watching these birds, i noticed that they are very playful and just like kids they also love toys and so i roamed around every petshop just to look for nice bird toys they can play with. I was able to buy a few but it get easily broken by my birds in a day or two, some even just last for hours , although thats the way it must be --- it only mean that i got healthy playful energetic pets.

I saw beautiful bird toys in the internet but they are pretty expensive being imported. With that i have decided to make toys instead. With my bare hands and the supplies and materials which i bought in bulk, one creation led to another creation and so forth. I fancied doing the bird stuff which made my birds happier and geezz they multiplied tenfold. My birds pen becomes a sight in the community i live with and many children would come and see my birds. And others have insisted ordering and buying my pets and accessories, and so that made ibonlandia came into the market.
