I have a rather large birdcage I need to decorate for my daughter's wedding in June. We will use it to store wedding cards in. I was looking for ideas. Besides hanging a sign on it that says CARDS & having 2 decorative birds on the perch both sporting wedding clothes. I wasn't sure what to do. You gave me an idea about the sheet music for the bottom. But I am not sure what to do with the top? Love your site! Thanks, Diane ANSWER: Diane, Thanks for writing! Here are a few ideas that you could use for the top of the bird cage. - Wide silk ribbon, made into a bow, with the two tails flowing down the cage. - Silk flowers to match the wedding decorations - A birds nest with eggs...and perhaps a fake set of wedding bands - Crystal broaches or other costume jewelry - Ivy that drapes down the sides of the cage - Strands of pearls - Pretty white feathers Be sure that the sheet music in the bottom of the cage reflects the wedding. You could have actual music from their wedding, or something else romantic ;) You could also tuck some moss around the edges for a beautiful effect! I hope these ideas help!

- Silk flowers to match the wedding decorations

- A birds nest with eggs…and perhaps a fake set of wedding bands

- Crystal broaches or other costume jewelry

- Ivy that drapes down the sides of the cage

I love the picture of the cage with the mini fountain and mini statue, plus the plants. Where can I find them to purchase? Are the plants silk or real? Thank you.

They blasted it first to clean it, and it is shiny and gorgeous. Cheap too! I had mine sprayed at a car collision place with siver car paint.
