Today I Started On Primitive Halloween Dresses

These little primitive Halloween dresses are so much fun to make.  They are well loved by many, each year on Ebay the Halloween enthusiasts snap them up as fast as I can make them, I've shipped them all over the world, Canada, Germany, Australia just to name a few.


Now, if any of you have purchased one of my primitive little dresses, you will know and can recognize the quality.  There are a few extra steps I take to insure my creations a different from the copy cats out there.  There are a few of my secrets that are on the originals and weren't shared with anyone...It's just a shame that people can't come up with their own ideas and have to try to reproduce mine, but I guess I should take that as a compliment.  In fact since there are so many coping them, I'm just going to throw in the towel and put out a pattern for them so at least they can get it right.

Well, off and running again, time to get busy, so until later...

Have a blessed day,
Vicki

So Are You Wondering What Happens In January At Oak Ridge Prims

When January rolls around I start getting excited.  Yes, it's true I start working on Primitive Halloween creations.. People ask all the time "how long does it take you to get ready for this show" and I reply, "I've been working on Halloween since January", they usually look at me like I'm nuts.

Well, here's the proof...I started doing my Primitive Spell Books today.  One of my favorites, you never know what they will look like, each one takes on it's own character with each pinch of the material.


Two down and one hundred to go, oh it's going to be a fun year, I have so many ideas running wild in my head, too bad I can't wave my magic wand and they would all be lined up, waiting for their new owners.

I can't tell you how many times during the course of my travels, I get told you must be a Witch, I just smile and leave it up to the imagination....After all that's what it's all about, and it can take you any where....

Surfin' Blogspot Oh My, Isn't She Wonderful

Well, I'm off and surfin Blogspot.  I started with Pam Garcia of Soft In The Head what an amazing artist, she kept me captivated for over an hour.  Her creativity inspires me so.  I entered her give away and I can't wait for her creation to arrive in the mail.  Ah, maybe I'm jumping the gun, maybe not, it's always a treat to dream.

She always has something interesting to say, and posts wonderful eye candy for all of us to admire.  As I read her posts, I'm amazed how much prim artists have in common, where we get our inspiration from, our roots, the sense of humor we look at the world with, our drive to learn and explore... I really think we were all related in a past life.    

I must get busy, but before I go, I have to post one of Soft In The Head's creations to share with you all.  Isn't this little guy amazing.  What Talent!!!!! Pam, you've cured me of my mouse phobia...Thanks
