Away at Highland War!
This week has been a bit crazy for me. I have been getting ready to go to Highland War. This is an SCA event held in the high desert of California. I will be dressing up in anachronistic clothing, weaving, crocheting, playing with my granddaughters and watching the fighting. I may even get to do some shopping! Normally I would also merchant at such an event, but due to being ill for most of the year I don't feel up to that anymore. So it is just fun for me now and no work. Hmmm how is that going to go down? I don't remember the last time I didn't work at a War or faire! So look forward to lots of articles in the next week or two because while looking for my faire clothes I found a bin of my old clothes that I had stuck in the garage and I have decided to refurbish them and take you all along for the ride! I will include video as well as step by step descriptions of alterations and dyeing techniques to make old items look fab again.
So I leave you now with a few photos to let you get an idea of what I will be doing this weekend.

Have yourself a delightful, selling-free weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteYay what a wonderful weekend! I just found your blog via your etsy purchase from my shop ;) I'm a faire and War veteran myself although I haven't gotten to Pennsic War in three years now. But next year I'm going and bringing the little guy for his first taste of it!
ReplyDeleteHi Reneesance! Welcome to my blog. I hope you know that I feature the items I purchase here every Friday so once the dress and coat make it here I will model them and post the pictures. I am really excited about getting them and am purchasing brown ribbon today to "spruce" them around the neck and along the shoulders where you said they are a little off coloured. Ribbon can do a lot to make an older dress look new :)
