Welcome to Beautiful British Columbia!








This is a picture of our beautiful Thompson River. It takes me less than a minute to get to this spot. It is so beautiful and peaceful here. As a primitive artist I am often asked where I get my inspiration from...well, I think it is important for all of us to take a wee bit of time to just look around us and appreciate the little things in life. So this week, I took my camera, and took some pictures of things I could see within the very short walk to this one beautiful spot. I realized how much I miss seeing everyday, and was very refreshed with new ideas. I need to remind myself to take the time to enjoy the simplest things in life, I hope you might do the same!

A Primitive Piece of Mine

Hi Everyone, I am so new to blogging that I messed up my first blog...oh well, just so you now know, I am human! I have been a lover of primitives for just over 3 years now. I discovered primitives one day when I was shopping on ebay and I found the cutes Raggedy Annie. I won her, and her creater Julie and I have been best friends ever since!!! My love of primitives has continued to grow since then and I have discovered so many people, and places on the internet that have taught me all about the primitive way. Through this blog, I hope to share with you some of the places I have found, some of my favorite designers, and some of my own designs. I would also like to share a bit of my little piece of the world here in southern British Columbia Canada.

Today I would like to share one of my favorite spots

www.createaprim.com

This is a place I go to many times. There is so much to be found here from ideas to tips and techniques, there are forums and even a place to shop. Kristal Norton created this site a few years back. She is a stay at home mom, and a wonderful prim artist herself.

Have fun on your trip to create a prim...
I look forward to meeting you, and look forward to reading your blogs!!! Cathryn
