Renaissace Festival....

We took a day trip to an amazing Renaissance festival nestled in the woods on a hillside near the lake...it was like stepping back in time. This was the 4th year in a row we have taken the kids and each year seems more enjoyable than the last...each year we also contemplate going in costume but somehow never plan far enough in advance. I am thinking of making the kids renaissance costumes for alloween this year and that way they will at least have something to wear for next summer!

As we walked around my mind was whirring with ideas and detais I saw...and my camera was snapping away (except my digital doesn't make that satisfying shutter click!)

Here are some of my favorites to share with you!
Klem dons a pages hat - hmmmm Halloween ideas???
some lovely costumes for sale...more ideas???



Some flower hair wreaths for sale...loved the display



Some of the highlights included themost amazing Sword Swallower...Johnny Fox...he's got somegreat clips on youtube...

I also LOVED these hair sticks they had for sale...theyare displayed in big wooden bowls of rice! Just gorgeous!

Ooooh... that brings back so many memories from my college years. I literally have not been to a Renaissance Festival since then, but that was one of my fave activities back then! :) Great pictures... I bet you got tons of great ideas! :)
