A caged life...In the Burlap Luxe home.
A brocante piece with another function in mind-another life before being admired as an object to decorate with, a piece not hopeless nor useless.
A cage I deeply connected to while dancing around the idea of bringing it home in hopes it would inspire a place in my home with gracious impact to its rustic charm. A piece that masteriously anchors the room beautifully.
I was inspired by the cage, and knew it was my new accessory that would change the mood of my room speaking a language of its own while reflecting a shadowy softness washed over in a patina of grey galvanized with layers of old, and the pale of rust working well with the background of a French country home.
French country style gives us permission to create such spaces with such personal French flea market style.
In a French home very few brocante pieces lack decorative value, its a matter of looking at pieces in a more imaginative way. I am imagining this cage in many decorative uses. This cage stood-out, knowing it to be a rare find, and beautifully alive in my French country home.

Such an eye for beauty, Dore! I love the graphic look of this little cage.
I have a very special request today... could you please pop over to my little blog and tell me what you think about my farm table? I want a rustic patina, and of all the blogger friends I know, I KNOW you will have some good advice for me. Just looking at this beautiful piece under your new little cage... well, I just know you can help me!
Hugs,
Zuzu
Hi Dore yes it's the little found things in life that we love. I wonder what little critter lived there at one time..would be sweet with some lavender inside too. Love it.
Oh Dore...you should definitely publish a book of your home and decor. It's all just so serene and beautiful! You have a special way of creating the most stunning vignettes!
Btw - did you get your book yet? Just wanted to make sure it got to you! ♥
xoxo laurie

Bonsoir mon amie! Oui, cette cage vide est super; j'adore les articles qui ont un petit peu de mystère! BISOUS, Anita
Merci mon cher ami.
Anita, vous remonter le moral mon coeur avec tes paroles mélancoliques et des visites magnifiques.
A bientôt et la beauté que vous créez

Love the cage, Dore. Have you thought about displaying one of your beautiful handpainted birds inside?
Hello Dore!! A lovely piece, full of simplicity and beauty, my head is spinning with ideas if I owned such a piece =) Wishing you a lovely weekend, Xo, Ashley
It is a true Artist that finds beauty not only with her eyes, but with her heart and imagination.
You do it so very well my dear friend.. I love it!
With great admiration and friendship,
Penny
Beautifully shared, as allways- you capture serenity and the soulfullness you have mastered with your creations. All is right, all is loved.
With love

Dore~so simple..don't you wonder where it's been?
Ma chère! Merci pour être venue; tu comprends comme moi, que les couleurs, les moments GRIS sont en fait JOYEUX. Il y a certains qui pensent autrement, mais NOUS DEUX, NOUS AIMONS la paix qui coule de ces couleurs et choix de décor. Je te souhaite une bonne journée ma belle, Anita
Love that cage as well!! Perfect
Hugs

I always see bird cages.. this one is a little different and I like it! Bring natural elements, with different shapes and textures is essential! So many homes are very predictable.
Enjoy your weekend!

It is something so simple that invokes thinking of the possibilities of decorating it.
you, my friend, are amazing. who else could see the beauty in this sweet simple and totally charming little cage.

Love it Dore!
A sweet place to hold some of your dreams!
beautiful Dore! The cage anchors the room, although seemingly insignificant, it is a powerful piece that beckons ones eye, and draws you in. I truly admire how you can see a single small piece such as this, and find the beauty before it is set in place..that's why you are a master at what you do! The All Is Calm piece is a beautiful statement for any time of year, but speaks volumes nearing Christmas, it is among my very favorite Christmas songs. Have a great week! xoxox Christel
Wow, Dore, it's all too gorgeous for words! I'm so glad the package arrived--I crafted early...and there's something for Hannah in there, too. Love,
Cindy
I love everything and our vignettes are very similar:-) I also have a pair of that very same lamp in my living room.

Each piece is a work of art here. Thank you for the detail shots. Lovely work.

Hi Dore!
I have missed visited your gorgeous posts as my computer was out of commission. But thankfully I am back and happy to be making the rounds. I picked a great day as you are sharing a birdcage, a passion of mine. I love the juxtaposition of the starkness of the cage with the softness of the French style. It just makes it so ... real. I love it!
Big hugs to you,
Patti
Bonjour mon amie!
Dear one, thank you for your kind words and love for the imaginary things that I so love to share. That first photo on my post with the bear, rabbit, owl and the girl is one of my favorites. A place like that is where I live in my imagination and to know that it hits special OTHERS like you in the same way is the spark in the connection of creativity.
I have my first art show this weekend and I have finished all that I am going to sell except a crown that I want to make. It is a BIRDCAGE!
I will share any photos I can get with you so you can see what I mean.
MUCH LOVE TO YOU TODAY! Anita
It's all so beautiful. Love the whole vignette, in fact, I'm really loving the chest!
Dore, I always love to come here and dream that my home looked like yours. Everything always looks so gorgeous.
inspired truly <3
