ABOUT ME

Hi and Welcome to Green Acres Primitives!

 

 My name is Melissa and I have been creating and crafting ever since I was little. My love for antiques and primitives grew from sitting in my Grandma's kitchen, which was beautifully decorated with "real" antiques that her family grew up using. I always sat there wondering what it was like to "actually use" the metal wash board to wash clothes, the red water pump to draw water from the well, to gather plums and peaches in her old baskets...

She took me shopping to endless flea markets and craft festivals too. My grandpa had a woodshop in their basement and when I was a child I would spend my time collecting tiny bits of wood scraps to make my own crafty 'creations'.

I started stenciling when I was 10 (at Bible camp) and instantly loved painting! I also taught myself to sew, and I would spend hours piecing together scraps for doll clothes and curtains for my room. I even raided Grandma's closet and made myself "new" outfits from her vintage 50's dresses!

Besides selling on EBAY and ETSY, we also sell our primitives in a local Primitive Shoppe:

TRINKETS AND TREASURES in Washington, IL





We recently were chosen to have our WHOLESALE items represented by American Trends Inc. They are located in Showroom #143


at the OHIO MARKETPLACE in Columbus, OH



http://www.americantrendsinc.com/

I was blessed with a dear husband who loves woodworking as much as grandpa did. He makes all of the primitive furniture, benches, shelves, picture frames, dry sinks, farm tables, and any thing else 'wood' seen in our photos.

Our primitive candles and beeswax items are made from Vintage or Antique Molds. We also make molds ourselves if we run across a unique "little treasure" that would make the perfect soap bar or beeswax ornie. Our candles are handpoured from our fragrant and creamy wax blend. Multiple spice rubbings give our candles that old and early primitive look we all love!

All of my fabric FOLK ART items are handmade with care using both new and old textiles. I use osnaburg, vintage fabrics and antique quilts for all of my folk art creations.


Please feel free to contact us if you ever have a question. We love to do special orders and combine on shipping too! Be sure to

local craft shows in our area.
