Caged Copper Sugar Canister Bird House

Here's another elegant bird house in copper and silver tones...

I really like copper so I started with a copper-plated kitchen sugar canister. I used a brass napking ring to surround the bird hole (1 1/2") and used the end of a vintage silverplate fork for the perch mount. I cut, grinded and rebent some silverplate napkin rings and mounted them vertically around the whole bird house as if it were caged. On top, I used the base from a copper-plate colander with a silverplate small saucer and silverplate creamer lid at the very top. A footing from a silverplate tray adorns the front, top center. For the foundation, I used a silverplate candy dish/ pedestal bowl upside down. Very elegant!

Here are the measurements...
Height: 13.25"; Width (side to side): 8.5"; Depth (front to back): 9".

This great birdhouse is ready to go and can be yours in my Etsy Shop (HERE).
