great post full of lovely ideas; i love birdcages, for that very reason that they always make a statement in a room, no matter what you put in them;
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing some lovely pictures...
Wow! Those are quite a lot of lovely birdcages...
ReplyDeleteI love birdcages, they're whimsical and charming.
We have some hanging on a tree in our backyard garden, although I haven't tried putting birdcages inside the house.
Have a wonderful week.

I love bird cages. Unfortunately I only have a new version for our budgies, but I'd love a few vintage ones to display together - beautiful.

ReplyDeleteHi Sharon. Thanks for stopping by my baby blog andd leading me here to your lovely blog full of French Fancy, which I adore! So thrilled to find a fellow South African blogger and I see that many of the blogs on your bloglist also include some of my favourites as well. I have loads to learn yet but am having a great time and am loving the interaction with like minded people! Great to meet you! Love the name of your blog. Those birdcages are quite stunning. the five on the wall looks grand and I am also swooning over the wall paper!

ReplyDeleteSharon this post is just beautiful. I can't wait to put books in my bird cages. I totally fell in love with the bookends, so I ordered them.....just now.
