Spring is Springing up in My Home

Good things come to those who wait, this I have learned through the course of my life. In bringing my home to its full farmhouse potential I desired to find a round bird cage. I already have a square one but I wanted one that is round. I had my eye on one at Hobby Lobby and I even seen it in Michaels a week ago. The price halted me and I decided to wait for a sale. At times my mobility is limited but during the times when I can do a little extra I get out and catch some deals if a ride is provided. Gone are the days when I was younger looking like a pack mule walking down the street  from the bus stop with shopping bags, safe to say you cant do what you once did when you were younger but thank God you can get around as much as you can with God's Grace to do what you can when you can in your later years, health providing.

Back in October/ November 2019 it was announced that AC Moore was going out of business and Michaels would assume the spot that they occupy. Two weeks ago Michaels sent AC Moore customers a 20% card that can be used on all purchases regular priced and even those on sale with a few exceptions. The card can be used til the end of April 2020. I went to Michaels to see what they had and came away with some beautiful white long stem artificial roses. Buy one single stem get two single stems free, now that's a deal. I bought two single stem roses and got 4 more free of charge. As mentioned above I saw a round bird cage at Michaels but decided to wait to see if I could find one lower priced or if that one would eventually go on sale. I am so glad I made that decision because a day later I found some birdcages at AC Moore for a steal!!!! The price was so great I came away with three for $6.00 total, two large and one small. The cute little gray stone birds came from AC Moore at 70% the original price.

This is what I did with the bird cages. I simply added a battery operated candle and some greenery.

This is what I did with the Roses. I made a simply arrangement by mixing in some eucalyptus in between the roses and put it in a tall white glass vase.
