Off the Page....



I am on holidays at the moment, so i decided to dive in to my ever flowing stash and drag out some off the page items that were getting dusty. I decided to decorate the Kaiser bird cage first. I am really happy with the way that it turned out, now i need to buy a hook so that i can put it on my wall.
I bought this Kaiser shelf system ages ago, i just had to have it and I have never done anything with it. My sister asked me to make something for Eve for Christmas,so i decided to make and decorate the storage system so that she could put all her hair ties in. As Brooke has decorated Eve's room in red and she also loves owls i have incorprated these 2 elements in.. I hope she likes it..
I have a cupboard full of other OTP items, so its my goal to complete alot of these. My next project is to decorate a 7 Gypsies printerd tray that I have had in my stash for over 2 years.

I have put the bird cage on my wall and it looks great.



My sister was rapt when i gave her this storage system, she is going to use it to put all Eve's hair clips/ ties etc..

  2. bird cages are made in a host of different materials. They can be bought in stainless steel, brass, aluminium and wood. Stainless steel are a common choice because they are strong and tend to last longer. Cages are also made in a variety of different shapes, the most popular and slightly more expensive being round bird cages as they add a more decorative feel to your room.
