During my first visit to her new home, I found something that caught my eye while snooping...er...checking...everything out. ;) She had the cutest little birdcage in her closet!
I got her permission to not only borrow it for the wedding, but to also spray paint it to match our colors. And that's just what I did!
Although spray painting is pretty easy, it can be a little tricky to get all in between the wires on something like this. But I stayed patient!
And soon I had this!
I used leftover bouquet ribbon to add a little "something" to the birdcage. I may or may not add a tag or sign that says "cards". I might just be lazy and put a card in it beforehand to show what it's for to our guests.
And as an added bonus, here's a sneak peak into some other projects that included some spray painting!
Lanterns for some of the table centerpieces:
And last but not least, a frame from our "faux"tobooth:
And as an extra extra bonus: our wallpaper for the "faux"tobooth!

Hope I didn't tease you too much. I can't show much more on the "faux"tobooth until after the wedding because it won't be assembled until a few days before! Hang in there! :D
I'm doing the exact same thing. I've gone to thrift stores and found some great bargains on all sorts of wire type things (bird cage, baskets, etc.). I just haven't done the actual spray painting yet.....but that's next!
ReplyDeleteYour card box came out great!
P.S. And it looks as if your "faux"to booth looks like a secret project I've been working on too! shhhh......
