Meet our Newest Poppy.... Farm Field Primitives

Lemon Poppy Seeds has a new Poppy on board and we'd like to introduce her to you all. 

Melissa  with Farm Field Primitives creates beautiful primitive and extreme primitive wares.

 When I asked her where she came up with her company name this is what she told me: When trying to come up with the name of my shop, I simply looked outside for inspiration. We are grain farmers from Northwest Ohio. All I can see for miles are fields!!  The name combines our livelihood and my love of anything old.

Melissa has been creating for over 20 years and her shop has been open for 5 years now.

Here ideas come from patterns and molds that are simple. She likes her pieces to quietly accent displays of items of the past. 

Gardening and decorating are two of my favorite things. Living on a farm is the best! The seasons are our life, and I try to incorporate nature into my decorating. I love gardening and spend most of spring and summer outdoors  in the flower beds using primitives as garden accents. As the cooler weather moves in, I begin to make the inside of our old farmhouse cozy with displays using items from times gone by. I would love to hear the stories they could tell!

Melissa updates Farm Field Primitives on the 1st of the month so please stop by and check out her updates.

Meet Our Poppy

                                              Meet Anglea with Old Time Market 1871.
Angela updates her Lemon Poppy Shoppe twice a month with perfectly extreme prims.
Angela like many artists is very quite and almost shy. 

 Where did her Business name arrive from?: Her father purchased a building that was built in 1871; she chose her business name to incorporate that year.  Half of the building was for her primitive shop & the other half is a little café. Anglea opened her shoppe in 2008 and closed it in 2013 to take care of her mother, though some of her items are sold in the café still.

Angela loves the simple life of times past and her favorite holiday is Christmas

Anglea's shoppe, Olde Time Market 1871 is updated at least twice per month, on the 1^st and 15^th.

Meet A Poppy........ Renee with Crows Roost Prims

Every month Lemon Poppy Seeds Marketplace is introducing you to our of our Poppies and this month it is Renee with Crows Roost Prims.

Crows Roost Prims can be seen all over the Lemon Poppy Seeds Marketplace as well as Etsy, Prims Magazine and ePattern shoppes to name a few. Let’s get to know Renee a little bit closer.

How long have your been in business?  “Crows Roost Prims” has been in business since 2006.  Since then, I’ve been doing this full time.  I am trying to operate as a regular business—Monday thru Friday for orders:  wholesale and retail and then the weekends to make things to sell on a variety of selling places online and a local craft shop.  It doesn’t go as planned most times!

What inspires you to make your creations?  I’m inspired by many things, including family and friends.   I made my youngest nephew and his dog “Hunter & his companion”:  Spencer & Legacy Church, that were published in Prims Magazine.  I made a baseball player and name him Rudy Hiltonen, after my boyfriends father and he made the cover of Prims Magazine Summer 2012 issue (but not my name!).

I’m inspired by clouds in the sky, books and magazines and dreams—during the night and day dreaming!

My eyes play tricks on me.  When looking at pictures, I will see it as something else and will get an idea.  I look at the same picture “up close” and see that it is totally something else (aging eyes!!)

How often do you update your shoppe(s)?   I try to change my items at least twice a month.

My shoppes are Lemon Poppy Seeds  Poppy Pattern Shoppe  Poppy Halloween Shoppe

Little more from you,

I’ve been published in Stamping & Co.’s, PRIMS Magazine ever since the premier issue in 2010- (except for one).

The latest issue of Prims, Autumn 2014, my 3 Snowpeople made the cover along with my name.

I’ve been a pattern maker since 2007 and currently have over 275.  I haven’t made any new ones since 2010 but am hoping to start again in the near future.  All my epatterns have been on sale for $2 each and will be at least through the end of October.

You can find me at a variety of places.  If you “Like” by Business Facebook page and check “Get Notifications” you will be kept up to date with all my newest creations and sales.  You can also check my blog for updates.  Thank you!

Meet A Poppy

Every month we will be introducing you to one of our Marketplace Members. This month we would like to introduce you to Lucille Rox of Lucy's Lazy Dayz Primitives.

Lucille has shoppes in almost everyone of our Marketplaces.
In her Lemon Poppy Seeds shoppe you will find her extreme primitives. Need wool for hair? Check out her Poppy Craft Supply shoppe and order you some Santa hair. Visit her Poppy Pattern shoppe for all kinds of patterns (Halloween right now) and grab you a few ready made Halloween decorations in her Poppy Halloween shoppe.

How did you come about your business name?

It was summer time and my friend and I were listening to the radio when Nat King Cole started singing "Lazy Hazy Day Of Summer". I'd planned to use Lucy and Primitives but needed more...the song supplied Lazy Dayz and Lucy's Lazy Dayz Primitives was born.

How long have you been in business?

I've been making dolls professionally since 1982....primitive dolls since 2003

What inspires you to make your unique creations?

 I have a very vivid imagination and find inspiration everywhere. I just recently made a doll inspired by my new coffee mug. My passion for sewing started when I was about 4 years old. My mother taught me to respect needles and scissors and let me sew right beside her.

How often do you update your Lemon Poppy Seeds shoppe(s)?

I try to update the first and 15th. This year I've had a few setbacks that have made it difficult but I'll be back on schedule soon.

Little more from Lucille

I love to sew! I always have..started making doll clothes when I was 4 and my own clothes when I was 7. I love bright colors, music. I also love to take long walks and ride bicycle. I listen to audio books on my MP3 player while I sew.

Lemon Poppy Seeds Poppy Petal Power Award January

Each Month Lemon Poppy Seeds has will have an Interview with our Poppy Petal Power Award Winner. This month's Winner is Denise with Simple Prims. 

 Denise is a primitives artisan known as Simple Prims or Dee's Simple Prims. She lives with her husband in Richmond Virginia which surrounds her with such rich plentiful history. Being immersed in such a wonderful world surrounded by folk art and antiques really allows her to express that creativity in the work she does. Denise's background in stitching and craft work goes back to her early 20s and works as a foundation to help put her very best in the dolls and crafts she makes. She however is not just a primitives artisan, she is also a primitives collector! She loves just about anything folk art, primitive, and antique. She has been a part of many great communities and met lots of remarkably talented artists from all walks of life!

One very unique and unusual thing about Denise is all her primitives are all hand made. she stitches everything herself. That's right! I

She don't use sewing machines, nor have she ever on primitives she has made and believe me, that's a lot of work! She sands by hand, prim, and paint them all herself. She really put her heart and soul into what she does and she is very thankful to have a family that supports her. Sometimes, it's hard to give them up!

Denise asked to include this note: "I really want to take time and thank all of the wonderful community members at Lemon Poppy Seeds and those who do such hard work to run it. They make it such a wonderful experience selling my work on their website."

Come visit Simple Prim on the Lemon Poppy Seeds Marketplace.
