Birdie Mobile

When I found out I was pregnant with a girl I instantly knew that I wanted her room to be birds & owls.  I fell in love with a bird mobile idea.  Many people use stick and branches but I wanted to use a bird cage.  Do you know how hard it is to find a bird cage when you are looking for one?

I used this pattern for the birds from Spool Sewing.

These birds are so easy.  If I can make them anyone can.

I finally found the birdcage at TJ Maxx.  Love that place.  My husband hung the bird cage and the birds.  For the birds we used fish wire and silver tacks that we painted the same color as the ceiling.  In the pictures you can see the fish wire and tacks but in person you can't unless you look hard.  I absolutely love how it all turned out.  I always receive comments on it.
