I love wire birdcages, and was so excited to find this cute one while out treasure hunting last week! Of course, she didn't look like this when I discovered her! The cage was black, and of course you know me! I just had to break out the spray paint!
Since I was feeling a little bit Frenchy, I added one of my "Frenchy tags" to the birdcage.
Oooh, la, la!
The top lifts off, love it!
I guess you could say that this tag is now one of my "signature looks", as I've added them to many pieces that I've created. I made it from a tea died tag, added a snipped of a page from a vintage French book, and my favorite stamped images, including this sweet little birdie. The piece de la resistance is a silk hydrangea blossom that I've glittered (because you can never have too much glitter!), a tiny rhinestone for added bling, and my wonderfully crinkly taupe seam binding.
Aren't the little hearts sweet?
As much as I adore her, I've added her to my Etsy shop!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend! Now go out and find something to paint!!
Love your white birdcage Donna!

She is a very sweet piece, Donna! I love that you are adding tags to things-it just really makes it even more personal! And glitter? Seriously? You? xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI never pass up a birdcage! I think I am going to have to start painting my black ones white again. I go from white to black to white to black...
