    12th century belt for my 12th century wedding dress – thinking about finger braided cord…

    2016/03/31

    Now, that the pearl embroidery for my very first 12th century belt project is already finished, I have to think about a suitable cord for the two ends of my belt. This is especially important as I need to attach the cord firmly to the basic material of my belt before I can add the last layer of fabric to cover up the backside of my belt. Well, I don’t think that my body will actually cause a lot of tension to the cord or the belt during normal wear but you know one of my most important mottos – better safe than sorry! 😀

Customer Reviews

  • had the lovely experience of wandering into this pop-up shop at an EMP event. not only is the seller one of the absolute sweetest people (and extremely historically knowledgeable!) but her items are also all extremely high quality and more than worth the cost. i bought two coifs and was very pleased with how comfortable they were while also remaining steadfast on my head without needing any sort of pins.

    positive review  I had a question about creating fabric stamps. She took time out to answer my questions and give me pointers and encouragement. A big thank you!

    Ive bought two items from her workshop(hood and custom bag). Both were beautiful and high quality. I received so many compliments during Gulf Wars about my hood. The quality of her work is almost unmatched and is super easy to work with. I came with a jumbled idea for my bag and she worked wonders. Will definitely be buying again!

    Ordered one item and had questions about a second item. Racaire was quick to contact me and and send pics with measurements. I ended up getting both items. They were shipped that day and arrived insanely fast for being across the country. Note: Items I selected were in stock. Racaire is very friendly and strives to know a little about each client/customer it seems. TLDR: Item quality/description: 10/10 Shipping speed/costs: 10/10 Customer service/satisfaction: 10/10

Finally weekend and time for Dolce Vita to recharge the creative mind! 💕🤗💕...and time to try out a new place here in Ft. Walton, the Florida panhandle, while we are out: "Pink Coyote"I instantly feel so at home - cute inside with an outside sitting area, great cappuccino and lemon-olive cake... European feel and some well deserved tranquility in this fast paced world... I love it!#racaire #florida #floridapanhandle #pinkcoyote #pinkcoyotedessertco ... See MoreSee Less
