My Life in a Tiffany Bleu House

I painted Marie's Maison Tiffany Bleu as a reminder that this is the best jewelry box I ever received!

Le Birdcage Chandelier

J'adore birdcages! I collect them and use them as interior and exterior decor items. After my dreamy - once in a lifetime, luncheon at Le Cirque in New York city, just couldn't help but obsess about the birdcage chandelier they have in their powder rooms! As soon as I returned home, I knew it's something I must have. So immediately got online to see if there is one that is affordable out there.



Simply love these from Restoration Hardware! But it cost over $3000 each, and it's too big for my tiny home.




These white birdcage lamp is cute too, from Viva Terra, I think.



This is the one from the powder room at Le Cirque, my inspiration piece. So I thought, well I could make one...




Found these pair of rustic brown metal birdcages from Ross...bargain price at less than $12 each!




This crystal blue mini-chandelier is already in my guest bathroom.





I simply inserted the chandelier inside the birdcage and voila...my new DIY and very inexpensive birdcage chandelier!





This bircage lamp in my living room is something that I already own...bought it from Urban Outfitters.








And here's another recently bought cute birdcage, just can't resist the urge. Looks perfect under my vintage ladder.









Chirp-chirp...Tweet-tweet for now!

I absolutely adore the birdcage chandelier and I want one! I have been trying to figure out how to make one out of a birdcage that I got on Free Day here in town. In fact I think I have it figured out, maybe.
