Birdcage centrepieces?

clarem1986, 25 March, 2010 at 20:38 Posted on Planning 0 11

Hi ladies,

Just seen confetti have a bit of a sale on and have seen these that will suit my theme quite well for centre pieces, but not sure if a) i like the idea of birdcages b) how to decorate them!!

http://shop.confetti.co.uk/product/large-ivory-birdcage/69100/

Any advice would be welcome!! xx

    I would either fill them with flowers or candles/fairy lights and flowers round the outside...

    I wasnt going to do any venue dressing but everything I have decided has gone out the window - along with the budget!! LOVE the little birdcages and the ones with the bird on top are so cute. Think we are going to do these and get some cheap strings of pearls to drape round the bottom. Not sure what we will fill it with. Im hoping the venue will do this for me as not sure what else to do - think companies will charge u a fortune!

    Thanks all for your comments and suggestions!!

    I love the birdcages but not sure if it'l be too expensive for me by the time i've dressed them up. I might get a nice big one and use it as my post box instead??

    Thanks Joanne for that website, i love it! infact ive found another centre piece idea!https://www.melodymaison.co.uk/chandelier-style-candelabra-in-cream.html

    If you check for them on ebay, try asking for a discount on bulk orders... that's what i did and saved quite a bit... plus they are very resaleable so you could make your money back after?

    ...just a thought before you write them off completely!

    I'm having them as centrepieces. We're collecting them in antique shops etc and decorating them ourselves, again collecting stuff as we go along. My mum made up these samples with a birdcage she already had in the garden
