What is Primitive?????
Primitive is an Early Americana/Colonial look & feel.
It is warm aged fabric, linens softened by age, tattered rag dolls, feel of antique wood beneath your finger tips, rusty old things from days past, the smell of bakery scents in the air~just as if Grandma herself was baking, it is that warm cozy feeling you get when you see something that is old and loved!!!!
How do you like your candles???
Imagine candles, worn with time~ lumpy, handpoured, spiced tallow tapers~~~ready to light your primitive home.
Grubby candles~super lumpy & bumpy, loaded with spices!
Grungy candles~aged look, spices throughout and smooth.
