Surprise!

Assuming this isn’t a giant scam, I am stunned. I never win ANYTHING. Yes, I applied for this back in January. The odds of my business being selected were very small. I’m waiting for the other shoe, and/or a deposit into my bank. Either one will let me know if this is real.

Meanwhile, if you like my blog or like my costumes and want to keep in touch, please join my Insider’s Newsletter list by sending me a message. You’ll get neato discounts and coupons straight to your inbox as well as first notice of great things. You can also find me on Facebook.

Traditional Renaissance Shirt – new listing!

by

This Traditional Renaissance Shirt is made in breathable cotton for everyone going to renfaire, SCA, and LARP events. Renaissance swordsman, ruffian pirates, and ye romantic poet; everybody loves this shirt. Its a traditional, classic design, for a reason – because its well made and looks even better. Available in adult sizes Medium through 3x and cut long because I love tall people. I am not kidding, these shirts are amazing for Big Guys.

This handsome cotton renaissance shirt is a favorite for men and women for years! Ladies, you can wear one too – its very comfortable and a great ‘middle class working woman’ kind of style. Just order by chest size using the Mens’s Chart. This shirt is the very basis for your renaissance outfit ~ get two, one for each day you will be at your event.

Made of middle to lightweight and strong breathable 100% cotton. Currently the white is a lighter weight and very breathable, the ivory is a slightly heavier cotton that I think is sturdy. It features a stand collar, tied cuffs, and throat ties. The sleeves are a medium width cut for a better fit with sleeves or bracers. The shirt is pre-washed and shrunk so you can be confident in the fit. And like everything else I produce, it is Made in the USA. Just say NO to sweatshop cheap overseas imports.

My traditional renaissance shirt is easy to care for too – toss it in the washer and dryer. Done. You can bleach as needed too if there is a great ‘turkey leg sauce incident’. Don’t be afraid to use peroxide on that grease stain.. its fine.

Warranty:

If you have questions about the shirt, contact me and I’ll help you out. You can also contact me via my Facebook page. One last thing. I stand behind my work. I will fix the shirt if its defective. If I can’t fix it I will replace it. Seriously, I care about my work and want you to be happy. That’s what I’m here for. 🙂

Faire Ladies, Faire Lords booth video 2020 Koroneburg Renaissance Festival

by

Presenting the Koroneburg Renaissance Festival booth video for my booth Faire Ladies, Faire Lords. Since my home festival is cancelled this year due to pandemic, we the participants and management set out to create a virtual Koroneburg Renaissance Festival on the Koroneburg website.

My husband and I put this together over a few weeks, and rushed it off to a lovely volunteer for finishing and turning it into a film (thank you Sabrina Kelly) so it would be ready for what would have been Opening Weekend. It debuted on Memorial Day 2020.

I hope you enjoy this.

As it shows in the video, I have been participating in the Koroneburg Renaissance Festival for over 25 years. Its been a big challenge at times to make this festival the best it can be. I feel that we are finally ‘arrived’ the event can flourish. A large piece of my heart lives in this festival. I’m looking forward to getting back there and picking up where we left off.

I’m working online for the time being and hope to have many visits to my blog and facebook pages. OOfaa!
