Garage Sale Birdcage At Its Finest

We found this lovely wood birdcage at a yard sale in Washington for only $1.00.

We left our daughter and brought home a birdcage. Why is that funny?

Sorry, there isn't a before photo but it was a dirty orange color.

Honestly, Steve had a hard time seeing potential, but I knew it was a keeper.

While I went to work doing my magic, Steve sanded an old Pottery Barn shelf 

and oooolala can't wait to show you! 

We are working on our new craft room, formerly known as Tessy's bedroom.

This is after a few coats of spray paint

Two sunflowers from the dollar store

Burlap from fabric stash, cut round to fit base

Jute from craft stash tied around jar

A jelly jar and coffee beans from kitchen cupboard for anchor and weight

 One empty toilet paper roll cut in  1/2  to anchor the flowers

(coffee beans cover the TP roll)

And Who thought the birdcage didn't have potential???
Ha Ha mister, proved you wrong again!!!

Total cost.....about $6.00

It's just adorable and perfect on our Fall front porch.
