Altered Bird Cage

Hi Bloggers, Lynn K. here with an altered project using the stunning IOD collection "Cotswald Manor". I found an inexpensive birdcage from Michaels that had some not so attractive fake floral decorations on it. I knew exactly what I wanted to do with the cage. I ripped all the florals and fake grass out and coated the outside with Splash of Color Viva Colour Inka Gold Metallic Rub. I took a soft cloth and rubbed it on the cage, then buffed it with a soft cloth - this gave the cage a copper like finish. I applied the Inka Gold to a key and added that to the top of the cage.

Altered Bird Cage using Cotswald Manor for CHA Winter 2013

The cage opened allowing me to decorate the inside with papers from the Cotswald Manor collection. I fussy cut papers, including two adorable birds nested on some paper cut flowers. I dabbed some gesso aroung the papers edges and the green berry spray ...

Notice how the flower centers are glittering - that is Viva Colour's German Glitter in Champagne. This glitter is AMAZING - the sparkle finish is stunning, moreso than other glitter products.
