llyrafantasyfaeI guess for me the weekend started Friday. I got together with Avien to put finishing touches on the Ren dress I have been working on. Of course finishing touches got changed into make it wearable. It is very much that at this point. YEA. Unfortunatly the fit is completely off in the bodice now. Which I didn't find out until I was able to put it on the morning of. Slightly grumpy because it turned out so obviously ill fiting and it wasn't so when I was wearing it as a mock up. *le sigh* Other then that detail and the fact that I just didn't have enough time to put the rings on the sleeves so I ended up not wearing them, the costume is coming along just nicely. The bodice will be fixed before I wear it again and the sleeves only need rings and a possible extra strand of trim. In a positive note about the costume, the skirts fit nicely, and have yummy trim. Crooked as a snakes butt, which is the dress' new name thanks to Avien's utter delight at me saying that, but yummy just the same.
So anyway. Saturday I got to wear it when I went to the Ren faire. I went with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aviendiora ,rhynndavrie , sirrogue andjainamsolo and had alot of fun. First thing I did was get my hair braided. Its one of the things I LOVE about the faire and haven't been able to do it for.... at least 5 years. It took me about 45 mins to recover from sitting with my head down. I think part of that was the heat too. It wasn't crazy hot but enough to make you feel sick when you are sitting around with your head basicially upside down. I got upside down french braids if you are curious on why I was hanging around upside down. They end in little buns ontop my head. Cute and fun. Hubby loves them.
After that it was faire food. I had a yummy sausage. Then we window shopped and watched shows. I was able to catch Poxy Boggards again. I love them. We finished up with the joust and the long trek back to the entrance. Thankfully the other carpoolers were nice enough to let me sit in the front so I could finish up my math project. I was having such trouble with that one problem. A little guidance from Rhynn and the car ride to complete it = project done. THANKS GUYS!!!!
The new site doesn't have the perks of the old site. And I can see how it could get crazy hot and uncomfortable, but I liked it. Would definatly go back. In fact I am planning on it. Not sure what weekend just yet because I want to bring the hubby with me. His schedule gives him 3 day weekends every other weekend so it can make planning more difficult. BUT I WILL GO BACK! Maybe by then we will have a new camera so I can get pictures.
