Follow Us on Facebook

Primitive Square Button

Do you follow us on Facebook? If not, you really should! I follow all sorts of primitive pages on Facebook, and when I come across great primitive finds, or fabulous primitive goods for sale, or just great craft or decor ideas on those pages, I share them on the Primitive Square Facebook page. I share all sorts of things there that I can't share here on the blog. So if you are on Facebook, be sure to like our page! Just click on the image above and that will take you right to it. Click LIKE once you're there. :)

Also note, due to recent changes on Facebook pages, you won't see more than 10% of our posts....UNLESS you add us to one of your Interest Lists. Be sure that you do that, and also try to LIKE and SHARE our posts as much as you can. This also helps to get our page and posts seen. This is true for ANY Facebook page, not just ours. Just Liking a FB page is no longer enough. Even choosing Show In News Feed isn't enough anymore! If the page isn't on an Interest List, you will be lucky to see 10% of its posts. You'd be amazed at how many of your favorite pages' posts you are probably missing! If you need a visual to help you , take a peek at this.

Primitive Contests Are Not on This Blog


Primitive Square Contests

Just want to make sure my readers and followers understand...Primitive Square does not host contests. When I post about contests and such, I am doing so to promote other primitive blogs. My blog, Primitive Square, is used as a way for me to promote other primitive bloggers, artists, and crafters. And when I post about contests, it states clearly in the posts that the contest is on another blog, and there is always a link to that blog (usually on a photo) specified in the post to help you go right to the blog that's hosting the contest.

I just want to be sure everyone understands this, because I get emails from followers asking how to enter "my" contests. The contests are not mine, folks. While I do sometimes offer freebie graphics and things like that, I don't host contests at Primitive Square. I'm just serving as a gathering place of sorts to promote other primitive blogs. What are Prim Sisters for?! :)

Daisy Jar Primitive Giveaway

OK, gang, it's time for a great Primitive Giveaway over at the Rusty Thimble blog. Check out what is being given away...twice!

Daisy Jar Primitive Giveaway

Two different people will win these primitive daisies in a vintage snuff jar. The contest is open until May 31st and all you have to do to enter is follow the blog. So just click on the photo above and that will take you directly to The Rusty Thimble blog where you can follow and enter the contest. Good luck, all!
