I Do Special Primitive Orders ~ Custom Orders Too!

by Margo on Monday, February 8, 2010

I have a lot of people who contact me looking for a certain primitive bowl filler or primitive ornie (perhaps a certain color, fabric, etc).

If I can do a special order for you, just send me an email via the “Contact Me” link above.  Please be as descriptive as possible (size, color, how many) and I will be happy to quote you a price.  I will quote you a price and even send you photos of the fabric if you wish.

Once you have indicated your items, quantities, etc. and I have furnished you with my price, I will then issue you a PayPal invoice.  It’s quick and so simple.  I can typically offer a better price too when we do a custom order as I have no eBay or Etsy listing fees to pay which in turn saves the customer $$.  Who doesn’t like to save $$.

Contact me today for your quote.

Primitive Ornies for Halloween

by Margo on Thursday, July 8, 2010

Mini candy corn ornies and bowl fillers are a perfect way to decorate for the fall season and the best part is these candy corn will not take up that much room!  I like to place these in a small bowl with some rose hips or grapevine stars and sit them on a coffee table.  You can place these in a little wreath or string them for a swag garland.  Great fall colors and primitive too.  Get yours now while selection is at its best!  Each candy corn measures approximately 2″ x 1 1/4.  These come packaged in a festive cellophane bag.  A set of 5 mini candy corns are $10.99 plus postage.  Want several sets?  Contact me and I’ll give you special pricing!

I Don’t Want a Primitive Pickle

by Bob on Saturday, June 19, 2010

This is Primitive Bob, the husband of Margo, aka Choose Moose.

Now the Moose had a special order for some primitive pickles, and I just had to tell the story of how they came to be. Now I must warn you ahead of time that this story may be familiar to the older crowd, but maybe just plain silly for the younger readers. And if that is you, I will post a video at the end that will help you out. So with all of that being said, let’s get on with the primitive pickle story.

Primitive Pickles

The Moose was riding her motorcycle down a mountain road at about 150 miles per hour, making primitive ornies.

On one side of the mountain road there was a mountain, and on the other side there was nothing.  There was just a cliff and the air. And she wasn’t paying attention. Now you know that is dangerous.

All of a sudden a threaded needle flew out of her hand. That threaded needle got caught on a yield sign. Now the yield sign didn’t give, the thread didn’t break, and she held on tight.  She made a sharp turn off of the road. Luckily she didn’t go into the mountain, but went over the cliff.

Well all of a sudden she was going 150 miles per hour sideways and 500 feet down at the same time. She was looking for the cops, because she knew that it was illegal.

Well, she knew that was it. She knew that she didn’t have much time left. So she decided to make one last primitive ornie for the world. A pickle! She took out some fabric. Took out some thread and a needle. And she began to sew.

Now she knew that it was not the best primitive ornie that she had ever made, but she didn’t have time to change it!

Now the amazing part of the story is that she didn’t die. She landed on top of a police car, and it died.

I know that this story will be hard for some of you to believe, but this is how the first primitive pickle came to be.

and so much more.  Take a look at some of the Americana items I am currently offering in my Ebay and Etsy Stores.  Contact me if I can make something
up for you.

I’m always looking for new ideas and if there is something you have in mind that you just cannot find, send me an email and perhaps I can make it up
for you.

Enjoy this time of year.  Decorate with some red, white and blue and show your pride.  Made in the USA too!

Primitive Easter Ornies, Bowl Fillers, and Flatties

by Margo on Saturday, February 27, 2010

I hope that you are ready for a “prim spring” and a very Primitive Easter season!

I have several new items this year. And as always, all items are one of a kind handmade. So if you see something that you like, you better get it, because I may not be able to reproduce it. A lot of the fabric is in short supply and when it is gone, it is gone!

I have had several requests for crosses, so I gave it a try. And here are my Primitive “Olde Rugged Crosses”.

Primitive Olde Rugged Cross

And primitive Easter bunnies! Why I have more prim rabbits and bunnies that you can shake a primitive stick at!

I think that this is my favorite. I made these last year and they really sold well. They are very versatile!

Primitive Easter Bunnie Rabbit

These primitive Easter Bunnie heads are as cute as a primitive button! They really make nice bowl fillers or tree ornaments.

Primitive Easter Bunnie Heads

Of all the Easter Bunnies, these have to have the most prim look. I am selling them in several different configurations. However don’t be afraid to ask if you want something different.

Primitive Easter Bunnie

I love this little “prim” fellow. He is “primunique”. A little different and comes with wire for hanging. There are a lot of different ways that he could be used!

Primitive Bunnie Carrot Ornie

And your Primitive Easter would not be complete without Easter Eggs. Here is a small sample of some that I have this year.

These are some of my prim favorites. They are wrapped in the nicest plaid homespun fabric before they are treated with my special solution and a little coffee and spice!

Primitive Easter Eggs

And these “flattie” Easter Eggs are ALWAYS a favorite! Some fabrics are very limited and they may be gone, so order early to insure that you get your favorite! Check my stores for current inventory.

Primitive Easter Flayyie Eggs

I will wrap this up with a set of primitive Easter Chicks. They look a little  like those Easter Marshmallow Peeps that you see in the stores. They almost look good enough to eat!

Primitive Easter Chicks

And again, this is only a sample of what I have this year. Check my EBay and Etsy Stores for the complete inventory!
