Thrifting Bonanza — Part III . . . The Bird Cage

I chanced upon this beautiful Le Bert birdcage. I have been wanting a bird forever (and need one like I need a hole in the head!), but beyond the desire to have another heartbeat in the house, I do love birdcages for their decorative appeal. This one was a rare find. Much like the other items I gravitated toward at this particular thrift store, it had no price tag. She gave it to me for $5. I googled it and finally found one at North Fork Pet and Antiques (along with sooo many other beautiful cages and antiques). I have an email into them to find out what it's worth. Will let you know once I hear from them!

  2. That is a beautiful birdcage. What kind of birdie is going to call it home?

  3. Your bird cage is beautiful and you probably need a bird like I do. Personally, I'd probably put a fake bird in it.
