Decorating for the Birds

There's just something intriguing about bird cages.

They are all the rage in decorating these days.

There's one on our enclosed side porch adorned with apricot colored roses.

If spring ever comes, I'll be able to get out there to see it again.

In the Red Lion Inn Gift Shop, in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, several bird cages, seen in this post, hang from the ceiling.

There are strings of white lights around them and they look so picturesque.

Couldn't help but snap photos of them.

DO YOU DECORATE AT ALL WITH BIRD CAGES?

Anonymous said...: I can see big bird in there like

parrots but small birds hardly unless you have like 15 or so flying inside. I seen them in Mexico while I was there with parrots in and out sitting on the
perches.

I like the decoration of them though.

I guess people use them for other purposes. Do you know what they are used for?

I hadn't thought of that and years.
