Birdcage Lamp
I made this hanging lamp out of a birdcage my dad found in the trash somewhere. Well, I guess I should say that my husband made it because he's the one who wired it so it would work. I didn't do anything to the birdcage. I left it weathered looking - I didn't want it to look new. I bought a plant hanger, painted it white, and attached it to the wall and hung the lamp from it. I have never put anything in the birdcage, but I could add greenery or a nest. I'll have to look around and see what I can come up with. Have a great day!

I love your lamp! I saw the Junk Market ladies make one like it and I always thought it would be fun to have one. You're so lucky.
And the dumpster drawers look awesome too. Isn't it great to take someone else's trash and with a little work turn it into your treasure.
Have a wonderful weekend!
i have been lurking for a couple days and I so love what you do with toile! I am also so jealous of the desk for $5.00! I don't think, no, I know that I am not that lucky.
The birdcage lamp is also a coveted item. I really want a bird cage. Just haven't found one yet that has been calling my name.
Love to make new friends, espescially one that is so crafty! Please, stop by and say hello!
Yea, for the shout out from the Nester...this is such a great idea and I just bought an old bird cage. :)
