Bird Cage!

I would like to say that my hubby bought me and early Christmas gift, but to be perfectly truthful, I bought me a early Christmas gift! I did do him the courtesy of letting him know I was on my way home with it.  My fabulous find...a vintage bird cage! Please take note...I do not like birds in the house, so there will be no birds that can shake their feathers, put in this cage! I will be making some cute little wool felt birds to reside in this vintage abode.  So fun!!
