[RowdysMom]

I love primitives too! My house is mostly antiques and western items. I collect New Mexico Native American stone polished pottery and my husband collects Hopi Kachinas. In our den we have my grandpa's saddle, rope, spurs, and stetson hat. I also have my mom's set of antique Fiesta dishes displayed in a corner hutch in my kitchen.

I say that looking at/for antiques helps me to keep my sanity - I can go into an antique shop and just walk around, look at things, and feel a whole lot better when I leave, no matter whether I buy anything or not.
