Moving and Kit/Garb Improvements

2020-2021 has been a very interesting year for everyone, but for me especially because my husband (Brandr) and I bought a house, remodeled it, and moved during pandemic times. Fortunately, everyone is safe and well, I couldn't be more grateful for that! This down time has given me a chance to work on our garb, jewelry, and feast kits. I had the opportunity to support several of my favorite merchants during this time and wanted to post some new items I acquired for our personas (trying to move more and more towards historical accuracy) - Enjoy!
Oseberg burial mound plates, VA prong forks, Novgorod spoons
Necklace inspired by silver bead finds in Gotland, Birka, and Terlev

I also wanted to share some moving photos of my collection of tablet-weaving thread and accessories.  Look at all of those tablets (I have leather, bone, horn, wood and some modern ones, also!!):

Brandr and I also did a winter photoshoot for our barony - it was the first time we'd been in our garb in over a year.  We can't wait to get back into the swing of things!  See you all very soon (we hope)!!
