Nesting!

 I just love nests! I found this little birdcage at the thrift store for $1 the other day. I spray painted it, added a little nest and some circle stickers. It looks great with my nesting mantle.

I am linking this up to Beth @ The Stories of A to Z’s wonderful 
Vignette party!
I’m a little late — just like in real life! 
Go over to see the amazing decorating vignettes over at her party!
And, I have seen so many nesting projects and crafts this week. I just had to share them with you!

    I recently came across your blog and love your projects!

    I’m wondering if you’ve ever heard of Rub ‘n Buff? This is a product my company markets. It’s made of carnuba wax and comes in a variety of colors, although the most popular are metallic silver and gold. It’s used on jewelry, crafts, home décor, furniture, chandeliers. I’ve seen a lot of great transformations. If you’d be interested in trying and commenting about it I’d be happy to forward some samples to you.

    thanks

    Great ideas, as always! I'm realizing the only "nesting" I do is when I'm pregnant! Maybe it's time to broaden my horizons a little! 😉 lol!

    CUTE! I recently found a bird cage for $1 too! It was the same sort of barn red. I thought I liked it red and left it but now that I see your black, I may just have to paint mine too. I love all your nesting items. So fun.

    Love your bird cage find. I have got to get me one of those! I have the perfect corner for one too.

    Thank you for visiting my little blog. I could not beleive that it was really you! I even had the bitty one pinch me really hard. It was really hard too. I just feel so honored. Thanks for making my day!

    What a fun surprise to see me on here! I think I would have taken a better picture if I thought it would be on here.
    I bought a birdcage very similar to that at K-mart this morning…on sale! I think we're on the same track of thinking!

  32. Sarah says

    March 31, 2010 at 11:08 PM

    So pretty!! Perfect for spring. And now I'm going to be on the hunt for a bird cage. That looks really great!

    I Love your birdcage, especially painted black. Sweet vignette too! Thanks for showing my Nest Centerpiece and Candlestick Nests. You're so sweet. Are you as tired of being covered in snow as I am? Thanks for the heads up about the Downeast Layton store sale. I'm in Syracuse so unless there's a blizzard tomorrow I'll make it over there.

    I love it! I tried the natural egg dyes and totally failed 🙁 I don't know if it's our chickens' eggs or what, but there was definitely a malfunction 😉 I want a mantle!!!!

  37. Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions says

    March 31, 2010 at 10:42 PM

    What a cute birdcage, Jen! Love it black, too! Your whole display is really pretty. Love the little nests and eggs you've tucked in here!

    i just KNOW this post was meant for me. 🙂

    I'm in full on nesting mode at home, and am in LOVE with all things bird/nests/etc. How ironic!

    🙂 love what you have done!

    I love bird cages! I passed one up at Tai Pan a few weeks ago and I've not been able to get it out of my mind.

    March 31, 2010 at 10:34 PM

    Yay! So glad you joined the party and with nothing short of something fantastic of course. $1??? You seriously scored on that birdcage. Your redo and vignette looks beautiful. I also love looking at everyone's nests in one collective place :).
