Primitive Folk Art by Old World Primitives
Handmade Primitive Dolls and Ornaments
I just finished creating a new set of 6 vintage style chenille Halloween ornaments. The set includes two of each style pictured below, and they are available now on Old World Primitives and in the Old World Primitives Etsy shop.
Each Halloween ornament is made of chenille and vintage Halloween images printed on card stock.
Now that I am back from climbing mountains, I would like to announce that the WSOAPP Market Street Shoppes are now officially open for business! You can either click on each member’s avatar or click on our business name links in the right hand sidebar to visit our shoppes. My new witch make-do is now available for sale in my Old World Primitives WSOAPP shoppe.
WSOAPP also has our first advertisement on page 89 of the Early American Life Christmas issue, which just hit newsstands and subscriber mailboxes this week. Early American Life has been one of my very favorite magazines for awhile now, so I am so excited to have our group’s ad featured on one of its pages.
Here is a sneak peak of the witch make-do that I will be offering for sale at my WSOAPP shoppe grand opening on September 7th:
The Whispered Secrets of a Primitive Past (WSOAPP) group that I am a part of has a new fall/Halloween theme on our homepage! Mare and Brenda have done such a great job of making the site look amazing. And I am so honored to have one of my primitive cats featured in the new website banner!
Stay tuned to the WSOAPP homepage, we have some exciting new things in store for everyone starting next month. September 7th will mark the Grand Opening of the group’s Member Shoppes, which will be linked from WSOAPP.com.
I am back from my first of two July vacations for a few days and am squeezing in some new creations while I am back home. Here is a sneak peek at the latest offering from Old World Primitives – a pair of primitive sisters. One is an angel, and one is a witch.
The pair are joined together and each has a string for hanging. I created these primitive dolls using a Netty LaCroix pattern. The sisters will be available for sale soon in the shops listed under “Where to Find My Work” at the upper right of this blog.
Due to the popularity of my first set of chenille Halloween ornaments, I decided to create some more spooky new ornies. This set is also an Old World Primitives design and includes two of each design pictured, for a total of 6 ornaments in the set.
Each ornament is made of chenille and vintage Halloween images printed on card stock. These primitive folk art ornaments are available now on Old World Primitives and in the Old World Primitives Etsy shop.
Mrs. Baker is an extreme primitive folk art doll made of muslin stuffed with sawdust. She wears a tea-stained muslin skirt with an adjustable drawstring and a very prim carrot. She has bits of coffee-stained string for hair and vintage buttons for eyes. I made her using a Netty LaCroix design. Click the links under Where to Find My Work in the upper right corner of this blog (a list that I am excited to say will be expanding very soon) to find where she is available for sale.
Here are my newest creations – a set of Halloween ornaments that I designed. I created them with chenille and some of my favorite vintage Halloween images printed on card stock. I think they will be right at home on one of my feather trees or perhaps hanging from a pegboard.
These folk art ornies are available for sale via Old World Primitives and the Old World Primitives etsy shop as a set of six – two of each of the three designs in the set.
Here is the second of the pair of extreme primitive black cats I have been working on.
She was also created using a Netty LaCroix design, and is for sale in my Old World Primitives Etsy shop now.
This week I am creating a pair of extreme primitive black cats. Making them is getting me excited for Halloween already – it’s never too early! Here is the first cat:
I just added her to my Old World Primitives Etsy shop. Many thanks to Netty LaCroix for the design!
