[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 1169979, member: 85"]Wow - am I way off. I always thought primitive meant simplistic, straight, clean lines. Such as Early American, Amish, or Farm furniture. I never associated it with art or home made items. So I guess like all terms and expressions,, meanings change over time. Guess I should add that I had noticed primitive is often used in today's world to describe rustic/rusty items.[/QUOTE]
