    …a little 7th to 9th century doll tunic…

    2019/12/28

    Have you ever wondered what kids played with centuries ago? Pictures of toys from the very last centuries are available in quite an abundance but they get more and more rare the further you go back in time. Therefore you might very well imagine my great joy when I found this lovely little doll tunic from the 7th to 9th century on display at the Bode Museum.

    Bode Museum – Sprang hairnet from the 5th century

    2019/12/26

    Sprang is an old technique that got several of my friends very excited recently. And as I have a certain love for interesting and rare things, I remembered a wonderful example from the 5th century on display at the Bode Museum in Berlin, Germany. I had the great pleasure to get to see and photograph this beautiful piece during my visit in 2014 and hope you’ll enjoy it too:

    Interesting Links – inspiration for a 10th century SCA knighting scroll and more…

    2014/05/28

    It appears somehow funny and also really amazing to me how Fortuna works from time to time… *lol* Yesterday I was talking about a very special scroll commission for a SCA peerage scroll. About a 10th century SCA knighting scroll for the upcoming knighting ceremony of a friend – btw. my very first peerage scroll! 🙂 …and today I already run into an inspiration for it, awesome coincidence, isn’t it… *lol* Well, I don’t worry much about the fact that I have never done a peerage scroll till now. I already made so many scrolls that even a peerage scroll is also “just” another scroll for me. Like always I hope that the…

    Museum visit: Vienna 1450 – The Master of Lichtenstein Castle

    2014/02/20

    I finally made it to the exhibition “Der Meister von Schloss Lichtenstein und seine Zeit” In English: The Master of Lichtenstein Castle and his time. The “Belvedere”  started this exhibition at the 08th of November last year and this weekend, at the 23rd of February, this exhibition will close its doors again. I am so glad that I managed to get there and to see the exhibition shortly before it ends again.

  • positive review  Racaire makes beautiful and period pieces from A-Z! My little family proudly owns three of her bags, which are extremely durable and gorgeous! My daughter (5 years old) even has her own sized bag! They go to every event with us and often I use mine as my purse in mundane life. Racaire will only make and sell items which will stand the test of time and is extremely detailed in everything she does. I recommend 10/10!

    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  I ordered an octopus printed bag on October 27th. By the next day, the bag was finished, packaged up, and shipped to me. It arrived today, October 31st. Included in the package was a hand-written note detailing how to clean the bag as-needed, and a few extra small pieces of stamped fabric. The seller was very responsive to questions, and gave me some great tips as I'm going to start getting into doing fabric painting myself. I would definitely recommend purchasing from Racaire's Workshop.

Stuff I do for fun... ❤️🤗❤️Apropos picking satsumas and kumquats - which are now in season here in the Florida panhandle. I picked so much last weekend and just can't eat them all at once so I had to become creative and started trying the recipes I could find...I started with preserved satsuma slices, preserved kumquats with Kardamom, ginger, gloves & star Anis in vinegar and honey and last but not least a second fermentation of black Turkish tea and (purple) blue pea blossom tea kombucha with kumquats and ginger... But that's more for a pleasurable drinking experience right now than preservation...❤️❤️❤️🤗❤️❤️❤️Still have a few pounds of kumquats and satsumas to preserve - if you know of an amazing recipe for kumquats or satsumas, please let me know!❤️❤️❤️🌹❤️❤️❤️#racaire #preserving #satsumas #kumquat #kumquats #preservingfood #preservingtheharvest #foodpreserving ...
