this sweet birdy cage was my 1st find at the markets yesterday.
bird cages are popping up everywhere in this house.

she wasn't quite as pretty as this when i found her.
for some reason the previous owner had umm wasted alot
of time painting her a ghastly shade of purple.

not being able to leave her behind just because of the yucky colour,
i decided it couldn't be too hard to paint her up right?
wrong!
it was a worse job than 1st thought!!
took me ages shoving the brush into every nook and corner.

LOL! I just painted a mirror (frame) that was that same horrid hue on the weekend...must have been some gross purple phase that we missed, huh? Your birdcage looks very cool. Have a good time at Ikea :)

Hi Kate
ReplyDeleteI have exactly the same birdcage. The original colour was a cream/white with crackle finish. I also love your soft pink finish. As for the purple ...ummmm?
You're very brave to tackle IKEA on a weekend. I only ever go during the week when it's a little quieter.
Cheers Kylie
I luv your pink birdcage. I have a similar one and can never decide if I want to paint it or not! Yours is gorgeous.
