~ a birdcage.

i started with a white storebought cage, {although you could make one with wire & spraypaint it which would be especially lovely!}


i added faux roses to the inside,


& collected faux velvet flowers for around the cage. then, using the wire stems on the flowers, i wound the flowers straight onto the cage spokes using careful placement for maximum beauty


i added a sparkly bird


& a wreath from a few tutorials ago...


& voila, somewhere for little birdies to sing!!!

loveliest thoughts
