The Only Pet We Own . . .


I purchased this little decorative cage a few months ago and decided to finally pull it out of the closet to give it some life. 


I'm not even sure what color this is.  I just knew I was going to paint it.  So I enlisted the help of my 3 and 5 year old girls and they gladly obliged.  When we finished, it looked like this . . .


It looks white, but it's actually Martha Stuart's Aegean Blue . . .  a very pale blue.



 I sanded it a little to let some of that rust-colored paint it originally had shine through.  



I also purchased this plate to go along with it . . .



What birdcage would be complete without a bird?  Check out this beauty I found at the third store that completed the look . . .



  What a perfect match wouldn't you say?
