We're crafters too and we lo-o-ove the primitive look.  Clarion House Collectibles carries a wide selection of the crafting supplies we use most often in addition to an assortment of prims and seasonal decorating items to complement the home.

Our original site where you'll find our entire line of Little Coon Creek and Clarion House patterns along with a nice selection of finished items made up from our own designs.

When we're not designing our own patterns, we very much enjoy making up the patterns from other designers -- that's what you'll find at Northern Prims!

And coming soon --

It's strange how things go full circle.  Mum taught me how to sew at a very young age so by the time I was a young adult, sewing was one of the things at which I was fairly good.  I worked in a tailor shop for a living in those days.  When I wasn't sewing for others, I made doll clothes for my oldest daughter Revere (who now has a couple of little girls of her own.) When I began to set up at arts & crafts shows in the early 80's, my first ware was doll clothing!

Well, here I am now with five small granddaughters and take a guess at what I've been doing again -- making doll clothes, lol!  I had forgotten just how much pleasure there is in creating and dressing a pretty doll.  Cabbage Patch was all the rage back then but American Girls have come into popularity since so that's what I've been working on for my little sweeties.

Now that Revere's girls are just a little older, Revere has caught the bug too!  She's got a new serger and has been turning out American Girl clothing.

Watch for our new site featuring American Girl clothes coming soon.
