I pulled out all of my collected birdcages and gave them a fresh coat of white spray paint to unify them.
I also spruced up some old candle pillars with a yellow so bright it screams sunshine.
These little birds were thrift finds years ago. Originally they hung from a ribbon. I cut apart a wire hanger and drilled a few holes in the birds and some scrap wood, to make long legged fowl.
Of course every bird needs a nest or two. 
This one is my favorite. It's the real deal. 
Several years ago I found it in my driveway after a mighty wind.
There used to be horses near our home and
this little nest has horsetail hair woven in for nesting comfort.
What a creative bird!

I added a few green books for color and interest.
The mantle looks fresh, fun and
for the birds!

Love the bright candle holders!
Wonderful mantle display. All the birdcages look fantastic together!
Beautiful!!Your mantals are always masterpieces!
that is so awesome! I wish I had a mantle :^(
Your little birdie is so cute. I love that you made his legs. Awesome idea. Love the horse hair nest too. I have one that we found right in a bush by our dog kennel that was made completely out of dog fur. It is so cool. It is white b/c we have a yellow lab.
Joy - your new blog design looks great! And I love birdcages too - and all of the spring colors!!! Looks like your home is ready for some summer!
I saw the cutest birdcage at a garage sale and now after seeing this...I regret not buying it.

Your mantel is lovely! You pulled it altogether for a great look! I posted a nest...a real one that is in a hanging basket on my porch.
I love those birdies! I was wondering where you found those candle pillars.
Amazing Birdcages.

As usual, Joy, I just love your new vignette. Decor genius! How smart of you to transform your hanging birds into standing birds.
I'm curious, though, about the real bird's nest. I've always wondered if any thing needs to be done to "treat" a real nest before bringing it into the house. There are so many abandoned nests in the trees around our home, and I'd love to use them indoors.
Thanks again for great inspiration.
