What gorgeous muted vintage colours. The little pearls at the top are a sweet touch. And that beautiful layered flower.
I liked the look of that set, I just wondered how easy it would be to put a bird IN the cage without an inordinate amount of masking or cutting? Any ideas? Probably I shouldn't ask, saving for a trip to Paris next month so I have to limit my spending till then...
