Hi everyone! I hope it's not too early to ask about christmas I would like to know where I can find inexpensive prim ornies for my tree. In the past my tree has been gold and burgundy ( shiny balls, bows and some cutesy snowmen thrown in) I want a new more prim look.Love santas and anowmen,just don't want the real "cutesy" stuff, a more grubby, aged look is what I prefer.I don't want to spend a fortune either.I'm so excited to decorate this year ( already pulled out my CS christmas issues from the past 10 yrs) thanks for your help!

Hi! Welcome to the boards! A few of my favorite websites to look for prim stuff is: www.factorydirectcraft.com and www.kpcreek.com and also sometimes you can find cute stuff at Terry's Village. Good luck!

Well, I had a bunch of links for you, but they came up all jumbled up!! 

 

Anyway, if you do a GOOGLE search for "primitive Christmas ornaments", you'll find lots!!

 

I'll try one and see if it works:

Believe it or not... I was at Dollar General today and they had a lot of ornaments that could easily be used as prim and other that could also be with a little bit added to them.  They have some really cute ones and they are $1.00 each... doesn't get much cheaper then that...and right now they have a good selection

Welcome - this is a terrific place. 

 

Do you have Hobby Lobby near you?  I was shocked when I went in there a couple of weeks ago.  They had so many ornaments.  The Michael's store near us didn't have much but believe it or not, Lowe's had some cuties, too.  Not a tremendous amount, but some of them were nice. 

 

Good luck.
