White Birdcages…

This darling cage with a stand came from my dad.  He has had it sitting in his home (unused) since he found it an estate sale years ago.  I love the details on this cage and all the character it offers a in my newly decorated great room

012Isn't the detail charming on this sweet cage?

Meet “Clouds”…I rescued this little parakeet on craigslist from a new mom that no longer had time for this little gal.  We welcomed her with little floral paper on the bottom of her cage & the pastel toys of course!

Upstairs in our hallway is the largest of our three cages.  This cage was ordered through a Snohomish Washington boutique strait from Mexico – it took months to receive but well worth the wait – I’ve had it almost eight years now.

The character on this cage is scrumptious as well… I have fun searching for just the right touches to add to my cages –

these white milk glass serve the perfect feeding and watering bowls. 028032

Currently it houses just one male Ring Neck Dove. When we moved to this home the two males began fighting and we had to rehome one of them.

Diamond Doves in the den… This darling cage was hauled back from Laguna Beach California when we visited two years ago. I found it in a local boutique there & just had to have it…Its found a beautiful corner in my newly decorated den.  These birds are just the messiest little birdies so I have wrapped the inside with plastic.  The diamond doves that have found their home inside have started the spring mating process so recently I put a little birds nest in the upper corner for them.

Funny, now that I am looking at all these cages in the same post – makes me realize how similar they all are… guess I have the same white wrought iron scrolly taste in bird cages…

Thanks for stopping by and seeing my beautiful cages!

Hi Tracie,
I love the birdcages...and your blog is wonderful--I am your newest follower!

Hi Tracie,
What beautiful birdcages. I love them all. I am so happy Clouds has a loving home with you. I don't understand people that just decide I don't want this being anymore. It's better Clouds has a loving, beautiful home now, anyway... c'est la vie to the old life!

All your birds are beautiful. I grew up w/a yellow nape amazon with a huge cage from Mexico as well, we purchased it at the flea market and my dad walked row upon row wheeling it out to the gates.

Thank you for entering my giveaway for Fifi's book and for putting it on your sidebar, I've made note of it sweets... good luck!

I loveeeeeeeeed this post! I am a total bird lover for one, and two, I have the exact same "nest" sign on my sweet Ozzy's cage! He's a Zebra Finch, tiny and full of color, we've had the sign for many years, I can't even remember where I got it, but I think Marshall's or Ross. I love your cages, the important thing about having birds is this...small bird/big cage...big bird/even bigger cage. It's my thinking of course, but they need room to "spread their wings" no matter how small. Well done on having your dear feathered friends in such roomy cages. xoxo tami

Such beautiful birdcages you have accumulated. I just realized that maybe my post from today would count for your Flora meme? Let me know and I'll add it to the post and link up on Thursday. I hope to have more as the weather gets warmer and things start to grow:)

Thanks,

Kathleen

These are all so pretty. When I was a little girl, my mother had a singing canary that would only sing when she used her sewing machine. I wish I had the beautiful birdcage she had. I wonder what happened to it!!
Thanks for coming by. I am signing up to follow you. :)

Lovely collection of birdcages you have there Tracie.
Pretty bird cages and your birds are so sweet! My granny always had a parakeet...Budgie! A few years ago I found a large white cage with a stand on the side of the road...in the garage now. Need to get a bird for it!
Hope you are having a wonderful week!

Oh I LOVE your birdcages....and imagine that!!! Birdcages that actually house birds. What a concept! I love them all...especially the one you ordered in Snohomish...where one of my best friends in the world lives! That is a beauty..and I like the tall skinny one from your Dad! xxoo Diana
Ricki Treleaven said…
All three of your birdcages are pretty, as are their inhabitants! I think the fancy paper in the one your dad gave you is too, too cute :D
Pamela Gordon said…
What beautiful bird cages and, of course, your birds are beautiful too! Pamela
aww...sweet birdcages...and birds... diamond doves and "Clouds" are precious. thank you. -xok.
Oh they are all so pretty. We had 2 parakeets when I was little. They did not have such pretty cages though!
Victoria said…
Oh your cages are gorgeous! What a lucky parakeet, living in a shabby chic cage:)
Your bird cages are lovely, and so are your birds. It was a delightful surprise to see real birds in your cages. Most of the vintage cages I see are used in decor and empty :).
Your gardens are already looking pretty. I'll be joining your party next week; things are starting to bloom here Yeah!
Have a great week!

Nice birdcages Tracie! I had to chuckle though at your real birds because it reminded me of my neighbor girl. Every year when they come trick or treating she just doesn't understand WHY I have candles in my birdcage instead of a real bird! too cute!
Blessings~
Hi Tracie, I've had birds several times and so enjoy them, but with cats it's a constant upset. Your cages are lovely, especially the double. I think your little male dove needs a mate!

Debra
I LOVE your birdcages!;) And Yes I think we should have a Seattle blog party too!! That would be fun~ Hugs,Rachel

Love your bird cages!!! And you have real birds in them and not just plants or flowers. I've always wanted to have some little finches, but I have cats.

Hi Tracie,
I love the cages!! I remember one in a store in Snohomish like that, I ooogled it for everytime I came up, gorgeous!! Your added details are darling!
We had finches once long ago and they were so messy, I have always wanted Doves but been too afraid. But how sweet to hear them cooing, maybe someday:-)
Hugs,
Bella
Love the cages, with birds or without! I also love that you use old white milkglass in their cages, very cute and practical can be pretty!

So pretty--thanks for sharing. I found you via Bird/Like. I have a couple of birdcages but no bird. I'm thinking about getting one, or a pair, but don't know what a good bird for a beginner is. Also I have a cat...
Hey Tracie
Your bird cages are so lovely..exactly the same taste in bird cages I have! (except mine doesn't house a bird..it's just decorated) :) Thanks so much for linking up to my party, I'm glad I got to see your lovely little cages!
Have a wonderful weekend
Missy
