Card box/bird cage

Soooo I ordered a bird cage a while back and it came and it's way too small. There is no way what they said is the opening will actually fit cards...

Anyway... now I don't know what to do. I saw this on Etsy and I can get it in time but is it worth $100? What am I going to do with it afterwards?

And if you would order one would you get the all ivory or ivory covered in black lace?

They're both gorgeous. Can you get a smaller card box and use both that and the bird cage? That's probably what I'm going to end up doing since I bought a bird cage and ended up winning a small, one tiered card box.

That could work... just a two tiered card box and have the birdcage sitting next to it....

I love the first one with the ivory lace and bow. It's super elegant looking!

I bought my cardbox from the same etsy seller. It came and it was gorgeous. I love the one you have choosen. I was going to get that one myself. Her cardboxes are really good quality. I would say it is worth the money. I would get it with the blk lace

crashing....

bc you should get it if you like it! I think they are beautiful. I got my cardbox from a '10er who had her wedding already and I couldn't be happier. If you get it, you should def post it on the '11 and '12 boards afterwards. Alot of the girls would love something like this, and you could make a little of your money back!

<3 the ivory one but i do think $100 is a little too steep. I'd DIY

I love the white one. I don't think the price is too bad. I spent so much on materials to make one own. I wish I had just bought one

I got a birdcage from oriental trading for $18 and it was perfect

I love them both, but the white one is much more elegant. If you can swing the extra money, I say it is worth it. I think that's very reasonable for such a beautiful cardbox. Plus, I think you def wouldnt have a problem selling the white one to another bride afterwards. Although the black is pretty too, I dont know if as many brides would jump at the chance to buy it off of you as the white one.

OK girls! I'm sold. I'm getting the white one!

I love the first one.
IMO $100 is a lot of money to spend on a card box. Even if you would try to sell it after the wedding I do not think you would get $100 back for it.

i like the all ivory one.

card boxes are so tricky because they're so beautiful but ... i mean... what ARE you going to do with after?

you can always sell it.

or give it to me.

OMG i LOVE that card box!! Personally, if it were me I'd get it in Ivory.
Not sure if it's worth $100 though.

I don't think its worth $100...my opinion I would be using that $$ somewhere else in the wedding, what will you do with it after?
