Country &
Primitive Home Decor
Primitive Decor is a new trend that is becoming more popular every day.
The use of earth colors with
subtle
colonial lighting creates a more relaxing down to earth feeling.
Primitive decor starts with the use of
antiques as well as reproductions taking our lives back to the way it
was in the olden days or "the good ol' days". Finding or buying old
pieces of furniture and turning them into a lovely painted pieces by
adding floral or vines creates another look that is also considered
primitive or vintage. |

Primitive Decor
is Wooden plank floors with the time worn look are being used instead of
linoleum or the hardwood that we needed to re-varnish every year. The
care free of this decor means a lot to a working family. The less care
we need to be, the more time we will have for the important things in
life and that is family. The antiques of yesteryear were also made
better and that is a cost effective way to decorate without going broke.
We all want new now, so with a little sand paper, stain, paint and
nails, we can have the primitive style created in a shorter period of
time. |

Country Home Decor
is bringing the outdoors into the home. For instance using twigs for
drapery rods or making grapevine wreaths with wild dried flowers such as
lavender, rosehips, bay leaves, pine cones and more. Growing up on the
farm was country. Old wash boards, galvanized bath tubs, outhouses were
all the country things we knew about. Creating country decor by sewing
hand made quilts from old dresses, or curtains from hankies. Simmering
potpourri on a pot belly stove filled the room with the smell of
cinnamon sticks roasting on an open flame. Fire place mantles made from
old fences is what we used cause that's all we had. Dad's socks were our
Christmas stockings. Grandma's doilies were made to protect the
furniture or for setting a flower pot on top of.
Patch work quilts over an Abe Lincoln bed cozies up an empty room. Country
is bird's nest set in grape vines hung over a front door. Making something
out of almost nothing is country. The feeling of going back home to our
stomping grounds. Painting rocks, painting on old books, skates or old
windows. Country is the time of the Prairie days or when mom rang the dinner
bell with the old cow bell. Country candles, cinnamon sticks, tart warmers,
colonial tin lighting, old pottery and dishes brings a memory of good times
not forgotten. ~ |
