My Weekend Bargains at the Department Store 

Picture
Hi Everyone ....it's very quiet at Maisonvogue ..we are just waiting for Winter to go away ..having had lots of hot sunny days we are now going to have another week of Winter ...Alabama weather is just crazy ..always teasing us.
So I went to the department store armed with coupons for a bit of retail therapy.

Picture
The three items I found were all on sale ...though I know that this top is this Season's ..as I saw it a few weeks ago amongst the new Spring selection at full price but it was already marked well down in the sale.
Picture
I also bought these earrings and the coral cross earrings at the top of the page ...I thought they were just perfect for the Summer season ...the coral ones will add a lovely pop of color to any outfit.
They were both 75% off ..so bargains in themselves.
Once I went to the register they gave me some extra discounts then I produced my two $10 coupons ..one for being a store card holder..the other for being a Rewards member.
The grand total with tax was $2.98 !!!!
How amazing is that .
So I walked out of the doors with a big smile and that happy shopping therapy feeling.
Most of you know that feeling
Don't you ??
I also went to Michaels Craft some and got some great bargains on items I need to make a lovely Summer's wreath for the front door of Maisonvogue.

A few blogs ago you may remember that my dear Friend Mary made a lovely card craft banner for our bedroom .
Mary also made me a lovely card to go with it ..I hated to just put such a work of art in a cupboard or drawer ...

Picture
So I looked for a photo frame at my local Salvation Army thrift store and found this one ..it is solid wood and hand made with great care and cost only 0.30c ...
I painted it to enhance the card in blues and browns and painted a backing card in brown and placed the card on it.
Put the glass back in to the frame and added a little wooden bird and three co-ordinating vintage buttons
 
Picture
And here it is ...I hung it up to the left hand side of the big frame at the bottom and intend to buy another frame and put something in it to place on the left hand side of the frame to make a threesome..
You can see the matching banner that Mary made.

I apologize for the quality of the last three photo's the light was fading in the room.
Don't forget to reset your clocks this morning and Spring forward an hour.
I love it as the evenings are shorter. 
Danny hates it as he is going to be traveling to work in the dark again.
I hope you have had some great bargains lately; 
That made you smile. 
If so please share with all us in the 'comments'. 
We would love to see them. 
Happy Days
