    My third tablet woven band – my very first garters!

    2016/04/27

    After all the recent sneak peek pictures of my tabletweaving and how I turned my tabletwoven band into my very first garters, I finally managed to take some pictures of me wearing my very first selfmade silk garters! Well, my garters might appear quite simple, if you neglect the rather petite pattern of the silk band, but they really don’t need to be very fancy to do their job – to hold up my hand-sewn stockings! And I really love them! Especially as they now allow me to also wear my blue hand-sewn and embroidered stockings.  😀

    My third tablet woven band – making my very first garters…

    2016/04/23

    I recently finished my third tablet woven band and as I had no definite plan for its use yet, I decided to make something that is still missing from my wardrobe – garters for my beloved stockings! Woohoo! 😀 Well, yes, many people consider garters a quite essential accessory for a medieval wardrobe but my favorite red stockings are so very tightly fitted that they normally stay up by themselves and without any problems. Therefore I never really saw the immediate necessity to make some garters for myself. Though I have to admit that I was – from time to time – thinking that it would be nice to own a pair of garters myself as they look really spiffy.

  • I've been following the shop for a while, trying to decide what I would have commissioned. Instead I fell in love with and impulse-bought a gorgeous dragonfly scarf that will be perfect for one of my Ren Faire costumes. It arrived quickly and lovingly packaged, and it's even better than I could imagine! You can tell it was made with love and with soul. I'm already excited about my next purchase and I don't even know what it is yet!

  • positive review  Racaire made and appliqué and embroidered Rose hood for me as a commissioned present. It is stunning, the skill and attention to detail are superb. It is one of the most beautiful things I own. Wool with silk and gold work.

    positive review  She made a masque for me, and helped me pick color an design, then gift-wrapped (😍) it when I said it was a birthday present from me to me -- well constructed and as attractive as possible given what it is. I will definitely buy again. Kendra of the White Castle

As some of you know I love re- & upcycling. Today I decided to give some of my propagated pothos plants a new home in hanging pots made from coffee creamer bottles. They are relatively easy to cut and, as you can see in the pictures, the outside shows their watering status very well which makes it easy to care for the plants.I love the little plant wall I started in the sleeping room, it has quite a calming vibe. Furthermore pothos is known to help with air quality, easy to keep alive and is a great plant for a sleeping room.I hope I could inspire some of you to recycle your common plastic containers and maybe add some more green to your home....and now back to working on my seahorse sketch...Love,Racaire💚💚💚🌹💚💚💚#racaire #recycle #upcyled #upcycled #upcycle #pothos #plants #plantsmakepeoplehappy® #plantsmakemehappy #plantsforthebedroom #bedroom #indoorplant #wallplants ...
