Trim the Tree Vintage Photo

Well, now that it's December, it's a perfect time for a Graphics Freebie related to Christmas. So I've created an edit of a lovely vintage photo that I hope you'll like.

This photo is ready for download in the Box.net box on the right side of the blog. It is named 'Xmas Tree Lady.' If you need directions for downloading:

1. Click on the image in the box.

2. Click on the blue arrow at the top of the box.

3. Click DOWNLOAD, save to your computer...

-or- Click GET WEB LINK, then copy the link into a new browser window (that will let you view the image full size first and you'll see a DOWNLOAD button and you can download there).

As always, our freebie images and graphics are free for your personal, non-commercial use only. A small watermark does appear on the downloadable image. This would make a great hang tag or would be nice as part of a card. Enjoy!

Button Eye Pete Free Pattern

Just wanted to let you know that there is a wonderful free Primitive Pattern available over on the Mulberry Crafters Magazine blog.

Just click on the image above and that will take you to the Mulberry Crafters Magazine blog, to the page where you'll find the download link. What a perfect Fall Primitive pattern! :)

Vintage Christmas Angel and Tree

With the holidays fast approaching I thought I'd share with you a new Graphics Freebie to add to your collection. So I did something with this cute vintage photo of a Vintage Christmas Angel, a girl, and a tree.

There is a small watermark on the downloadable photo, simply because I occasionally find my freebies on other pages/blogs etc, with the person claiming that they created them. So now I'll be watermarking all my edits and graphics. The large watermark, however, will NOT appear on the downloadable image. 

You can snag the freebie in our Box.net box on the right side of the blog. It is named Angel Tree Freebie in there. I think it would make a cute Primitive Christmas tag, or it could be used for all sorts of craft projects for the holidays. As always, this is free for your personal, non-commercial use. It is not allowed to be sold or claimed as your own.

I am going to try to add at least one more freebie in the next couple of weeks for you. I hope your upcoming Thanksgiving is a wonderful one. Prim hugs always. :)

Granny Witch Graphics Freebie

I've just uploaded a new Graphics Freebie to the Box on the right side of the blog. Since it's getting close to Halloween, I thought that some Granny Witch art might be fun. So I scoured my stash of Vintage Photos and found the perfect little old lady to work with, and turned her into a Granny Witch for you. Here's a sneak peek of the image:

This is just part of the actual freebie image. You have to visit the blog and download the photo from our Box gadget. As always, this is free to use for your personal blog, or Facebook page, or for crafting purposes--but it is NOT allowed to be sold/for resale, nor is it to be used for commercial gain.

Hope this gets you in the mood for Boo season. :)

Halloween Hang Tags Graphics Freebies

I decided to start thinking about Fall, Y'all. Something about the month of September just makes me do that. :) So I wanted to start the month off right and create a Graphics Freebie that you can download. So these are my Halloween Hang Tags, with some witches and some Halloween-themed animals. The photo shows what the hang tags look like--but the actual download is a full sheet of tags in PDF format.

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THESE HANG TAGS!

I hope you can use these in your Fall primitive crafting projects! Enjoy!

Please note: these are for your personal use only. They are not for commercial use and they are not for resale.

Welcome to Primitive Square's New Home

Howdy, y'all, and Welcome!

I just finished moving Primitive Square from its former self-hosted WordPress home over to Blogger. Long story short...HACKERS forced the move. My web host was beyond unhelpful with the hacking issue, so bye-bye, DreamHost, and hello, Blogger! I've used Blogger for other blogs for years, so it feels like home.

I'm still in the process of moving one other blog and one website off of DreamHost. Once I get finished I'll be posting some new vintage photo freebies. So stay tuned for that. In the meantime, all current email subscribers will now receive their Prim Square blog updates via Mail Chimp. The reason being that Feedburner is (rumor has it) likely to be closed at some point by Google (like so many other Google products), and I wanted to get all these changes taken care of sooner, rather than later. So you should receive this very post via Mail Chimp within 24 hours of me posting it. :)

Thanks for following Primitive Square...and be sure to find and follow us on Facebook too. We always post primitive finds from Facebook there, so there's lots to see there that I can't post on the blog.  Just click on the blue Mason jar below to go to our Facebook page. Hope to see you there!

And don't forget that you can follow us on Bloglovin too, which is how I read all the blogs I follow since the demise of Google Reader. There's a link on the right side of our blog that goes right to Bloglovin. So there are lots of ways to follow the happenings in the Square. :)

Prim Mix Hang Tags Freebies

I was doing some digital art today and decided it was time for some Graphics Freebies to be created for my blog followers. So I created this set of Prim Mix Hang Tags printables for you to download.

The image above shows you what the tags look like. If you click on the image, it will take you to a PDF file that you can download for free. Make sure that you are in the actual individual post before you click on the image--otherwise it won't take you to the download. Once you're in the post you can click on the image for the PDF file. Then all you have to do is cute them out and use them for your primitive crafts or gifts, or whatever you like.  I hope you like them.

4th of July Vintage Photo Freebies

I've just uploaded three new Vintage Photos to our Box.net box on the right side of the blog. They are named Liberty Girl, Sailor Boy, and Uncle Sam.

Be sure to download yours today, because our Graphics Freebies do not stay in the Box indefinitely. :) Grab them while you can. I hope you can them in some of your Independence Day craft projects this 4th of July! Hope you have a safe and happy holiday weekend.

Plumrose Lane

I just wanted to share with you one of my favorite sites for Blogger themes. The site is called Plumrose Lane and she creates really beautiful blog backgrounds and themes. And hey, they're free! If you've never been to her site, just click on the image below and it will take you right to it.

She has a wonderful variety of themes, backgrounds, and post dividers, and she provides tutorials as well. She has a few I'm thinking about trying for my Tattered Sisters blog. :) Take a peek!

Summer is Coming Vintage Photo

Summer is coming, and it's the perfect time for doing craft projects with a summer theme. I thought this Vintage Photo of ladies at the beach would fit the bill. :)

This image can be found full size (without the watermark) in the Box.net download box on the right-hand side of the block. It is named Ladies Beach Summer. I'm going to try to add some more summer themed vintage photos in the coming weeks. Enjoy your Graphics Freebies!

Spring Sheep Vintage Photo

I thought I'd share another Graphics Freebie with you....this one is a Vintage Photo of some sheep. I always think of Spring when I see photos of sheep. :) And I love sheep! I've uploaded the photo to the Box.net box here on the right side of the blog. Below is the watermarked version so you can preview it full size. The watermark doesn't appear on the downloadable version.

Remember, I delete the photos from the Box from time to time as they get old, so be sure to download yours sooner rather than later. Keep thinking Spring...it'll get here sooner or later!

Prim Hugs.

The End of Google Reader

Google Reader is closing in July, and I am none too happy about it. I've been using Google Reader for years to keep up with all of the blogs that I follow. So after finding out last week that Google Reader is near its end, I began the hunt for its replacement. I've published a blog post on my sister blog, Tattered Sisters Primitives, to share my front runners as my new blog reader. Please hop on over to Tattered Sisters by clicking on the Google image above to see the full article.

Easter Vintage Photos

I've just added a couple of new Vintage Photos to the Box.net download box on the right-hand side of the blog. One is called Bunny Brigade and the other is called Bunny Chicks (not very original, I know). Just wanted to let you know about them in case you were looking for some Easter Vintage Photos for a craft project or hang tag or something.  Be sure to check out our Facebook page too. I've added one extra vintage photo there that's not available here on the blog!

Valentine Angels

I wanted to give you one more of my Graphics Freebies before Valentine's Day, in case you want a little something cute for a last minute craft project or card. You can see the watermarked version here in this post.

To download the un-watermarked vintage photo version, just visit the Box.net download box on the right side of the blog. It can be downloaded from there.  This would look cute on a card, or even used as a hang tag. Enjoy!

And Happy Valentine's Day!

Cupid Cries Vintage Photo Freebie

Since Valentine's Day is just around the corner, I thought a Graphics Freebie was in order. So Ive uploaded a vintage photo for you to our Box.net download box on the right side of the blog. The new graphics freebie is called Cupid Cries, and you'll see it has a sad little cupid in the vintage photo. This could make a cute little gift tag. Enjoy!
