Retro and Vintage Weddings

your opinions please

I've been looking at Bird-cages and wanted to know what you ladies think, I wanted it to be either beige,brown or off white to go with our colors, do you ladies know if I ended up purchasing a white one If I can paint it? sorry I'm not crafty and I wondered if it would look bad if I did that? or am I just being ridiculous about it having to match?

                                    TIA!!

    [QUOTE]That's pretty vague.... wood? Metal? Honestly, anything can be painted, there are specific types of paint for each material (metal, wood, you can even paint/ color glass)

  • This couple used multi-colored birdcages in their wedding, and I think it turned out pretty cute:  http://greenweddingshoes.blogspot.com/2009/12/real-wedding-sarah-jaimes-fun-modern.html
  • I am having this same issue. We are trying to pick the perfect birdcages to decorate with, but I know that I will need to paint them black to go with our "theme". They are already so beautiful the way they are! We are also having a hard time trying to pick which particular design we want to buy. They can be painted. I've seen them painted many times. It's just a matter of having them in front of you and saying "what is the perfect color for you little birdcage?" Spray paint is a great medium to use. Just remember not to hold the can too close to the object you are painting so you don't get drips. Just make a lot of gentle passes and it will come out beautifully. :)
