2023 Arizona Renaissance Festival- Plans for Attending and No Costume Plans
Hi everyone! This weekend will be the first weekend the Arizona Renaissance Festival will be open. It is usually open for two months, so there are plenty of opportunities to attend. For many years, I would attend at least one day per year. This year, I don’t know if I will attend. Also, if I do go, I don’t plan on dressing up. There are more than one reasons why I decided on potentially not going or if I do, I won’t wear a costume. The main one is that there are many things going on in the area where I live in February and potentially March. I don’t know…

2017 Arizona Renaissance Festival Black and White Photos
Hi everyone!

All the photographs…

Since I was in the jousting arena, I drew a sketch of the royal box in the front of the arena… I’m not sure how long it took me to sketch the picture, but by the…

Arizona Renaissance Festival 2013 Tennative Costume
I’ve been attending the Arizona Renaissance Festival every year since 2010 and every year, I made a costume to wear there. The first costume I made and wore in 2010 was based off Eowyn’s “green” dress from the movie Lord of the Rings, Two Towers. Back then I wasn’t very experienced in sewing without help with my mom and my mom thought I needed to try to make something myself with very little help from her, so when I made the costume it didn’t turn out just like Eowyn’s dress. It was similar, but not the way I imagined it. After I wore it, I put it away so I…
