Planning on going this year, can’t wait to check out this shop and meet the infamous Squirrel!❤

Next year maybe do a dwarven princess inspired look? It seems like Hobbits and Elves get a lot of Renfaire looks, but the dwarves in their halls of stone need some more appreciation!

All the artisans! My husband and I are finally having our favorite tailor make us bespoke outfits for this year after buying off the rack from him for almost 20 years. Our leather jacks/mugs were made by a leather artist, but sadly he’s no longer with us. I had him make us the jacks with intertwined wedding rings and our wedding date on them as a surprise for my husband 26 years ago. Fortunately another leather artist regularly reseals them for us. Then there’s all the other accessories we don, all bought from artists.

Squirrel is so correct about real leather in hot weather. As a biker, my summer jacket is leather and its so much cooler than the textile one I used to use during summer even though the textile had big mesh section and openings. Love the video and outfit! Personally I preferred some of the other mugs they had, but it's as you said, it's what you like personally and if that was your favourite, then that's the perfect one for you!

Squirrel's energy gives me life. Thank you for budgeting for this video and taking us along to show off some unique Ren Faire artisan goods ❤️

My goodness that Alyssa vest is basically 800$ wow that’s sooo expensive and it looks so gorgeous!!!

I could listen to Squirrel talk about leather all day. Such a fountain of information.

Edit: I just realized this is the Maryland ren fair, it looks almost identical to the Michigan ren fair. The two entrances are slightly different, but the layout and size almost identical. I was just there last year! Went as Frodo, their dragon legs we're so good. Saw the joust right before it rained, and bought all kinds of great stuff. It was a bit of a drive for us, but I recommend it for anyone. Bring lots of money. Lots. I also got drunk from the mead and it was hot. Amazing time. Can't wait to go back. My local renfair Blackrock went under, and I had gone every year of my life. So, went to the Michigan Ren fair and it blew my hobbit pants clean off.

Ohh! The Maryland Ren Faire! Love Bullseye, got my favorite corset from there

Thanks for making special mention of size inclusivity - I’ve been wanting to get more into sustainable clothing when I can afford it and the whole time watching your experience with Squirrel i was crossing my fingers. I get that with smaller brands and niche fashion they don’t always have the means to have plus-sided clothing, so when that came up it was a huge relief.

I love how she got increasingly more and more excited the more pieces she acquired and pieced together. Also, I love squirrel

I absolutely loved the clothes you chose, particularly the velvet dress, it’s gorgeous!!! Also idk why when I saw that mug while the lady was explaining I was just like that’s the mug you will choose, how haven’t other people taken it? it’s so pretty wow I kinda want one, aaand then you chose it :) has it shown up in another video or something? Cause I instantly just knew lol.

That's so funny haha I'm gonna take it as a sign that the mug was truly meant to be

This renfaire looks all around amazing. I love that it looks to be in the woods, with many large buildings around. It gives slight Oregon Country Faire Vibes. The only renfaire near me is in the middle of an open field during the hottest month. The burns were unreal. Definitely dream of going to a faire like this in the future. Thank you for sharing your experience.

obsessed with how you split the set of bracers - relationship goals

This was a refreshing video as all of the Washington Ren Faires are held in summer. Love seeing the various goods offered and how you brought the outfit to life over the course of the day!

So many beautiful pieces!! So wonderful to see such artisanal crafts kept alive

Minnesota's ren fest is always soooo hot! I would die in a velvet dress and leather! You look amazing!

My first ren faire, I bought most of a costume. It was actually a ton of fun to go booth the booth and having the shop keepers help add pieces(if they weren't too busy).

This is a great video! I have had this same thought before. Thank you for making it because I could never afford to do it. Every year I find good stuff for my costume and it changes overtime. Its interesting to see one costume come together over a single day.

This video made me so happy, I'm vicariously living through you since we don't get as many Ren festivals here in Mexico, please do more videos like this

Oh I love this! I did a recent trip a week ago to start building a ren fair outfit. I didn't have as good of a vision (or wear it that day) but I'm looking forward to building it up over time. I love the artisans you can find at these places! We actually ended up with mugs from Goodly Woods as well! They are so nice and thats probably a lifetime kind of purchase. I LOVE how you can tell how passionate the artisans are about their craft and the history and that lovely passion for the pure fun of a good renaissance festival

Love this! Definitely started my collection at Bullseye and Moresca! I always add a few more pieces every year to build up my collection for different themes - not always intending on full matching pieces. I love how much of a collection of things you got in just one haul!

I'm so glad you went to Potomac!! I loved working there a couple weekends in 2019! Amazing people!!!

Those sales assistants are so awesome Your outfit turned out perfectly- that vest with the natural edge is amazing

Please... Make this a tradition! One every year!

I love this concept! I recently explained to some friends that Ren Faires are for fun and you can dress however you want, and they were so surprised!

i cannot describe how much joy and comfort this video brings me - i don't even know why it's just so relaxing and fulfilling

It looks great, you can keep adding pieces yearly. Makes me excited for my Renfest in Feb.

this was adorable. loved the historical tidbits in between

I truly wish there were things like this on this scale in the UK!

Having participated in the original Renaissance Pleasure Faire in California at the beginning, from 1970 until 1980s as an artist, it was nice to see that you chose a great assortment of articles to make a very Renaissance costume. I hope next year you get the long jacket that called your name. Please make more videos. 20:33

That looked like so much fun. I would totally save up and go shopping at least once. Where is this place? I live in a state that's just starting to organize really good cons and festivals. I don't think we have anything like this. We might something civil war but nothing like this. I hope we get to see you go back for that amazing leather vest coat. Thank you for asking what their range of sizes are. I'm am a bigger size and I love watching your videos because you have such positive vibes and I feel that I learn a lot from you that I can adjust to fit myself. Keep shining, sunshine.

Loved seeing all the vendors/makers that populate a RenFaire. 💞 Was drooling over that long leather vest. 🤤🤤🤤🤤 Really hope you get to grab one next year. Very much appreciate the lass who was explaining about the Tara Brooch throwing in the whole oppression bit by the Brits. Tis something that gets glossed over a lot and I wanted to reach through the screen & hug her when she mentioned that bit about Queen Vic. 💚💚

You've given me so much inspiration for my outfit!

I only just now got around to watching this and immediately started flipping my gourd when I realized that that's the Renaissance festival near my apartment and the one I've been going to since I was in diapers! I'm actually really happy that you made this because I still have yet to buy Ren faire garb and because this particular Ren Faire is so huge, it's very easy to miss shops. I'm glad to see Potomac leatherworks get some love and I am definitely writing down a list for when I inevitably have to shop before this year's Ren Faire ❤❤

Moresca and Crafty Celt are two of my favorites. Beautiful pieces! You look great!

I love the Maryland RenFest! I introduced going to the faire for my son (at the time we started going, he was 5). Giving him a budget to allow him to create his own costume was so much fun! I live overseas now and can't go. It was awesome to see it through your video. Thanks for sharing!

Love you hair/bangs at the 3:40 minute mark vid !!! So cute!

This was such a unique shopping spree video. Would love to see more of this

Beautiful outfit! That skirt/vest thing was stunning, definitely get that next year!

the vibes of this video are exactly what i needed tonight

Hi! I was recommended this video and omg it was so cute and fun to watch! I love the outfit you put together. I have been to several Renaissance festivals and I never dress up. I need to! You've inspired me. And omg girl, you are so cute. I just LOVE your energy. 💖

Loved watching your renn faire outfit come to life!! I love the renn faire but have never put together a full outfit at the faire--looks like so much fun. You picked amazing pieces that you can wear and restyle so many ways, and I'm actually surprised that you got the full outfit, a mug, and other accessories for $805.

YOU ARE SO SWIRLY I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCHHH The swirls you do gives me happy feels

SUCH a great video! you also really captured the amazing renfair vibe we all love. living through this until it's renfair season again where I live

I have never been to a Renaissance Fair and this looked SO fun!!! So many beautiful items. 😍

You did an AWESOME job!! I loved everything you chose. It was one of those videos where the vlogger always picked the same thing I wanted to pick.

This was so fun to watch and you look so fabulous!!! I always wanted to go on a full out shopping spree at the faire! I did finally get a pair of those iridescent fairy wings this year and I am obsessed!

Very cool! Hope to see a new one this year!

Bravo! They are most fun.

This was so fun! Loved seeing all the options :)

The excitement in the “Expect mail from me!” Was so cute 🥰

Shocked how big and beautiful this faire is! I've only gone to my local one the last 25 years or so and it's just 2 or 3 rows of tents out in a field. I can't believe there are ren faires out there that are full on real towns! I must go to one this grand some day~

i love how they were willing to let you film film, and they were so helpful 🥺

Hi Minji! I just wanted to say that your videos have inspired me to want to go to my first ren faire and indulge my inner 12 year old! I'm planning to go to the SoCal one this May, and I have my outfit planned and everything so thank you so much!! I also just wanted to say that it is such a JOY watching you work; you're very good at what you do! I put your videos on while I'm crafting and it's a fun time. Anyways, take care! ^_^

I love this idea so much! I'm gonna have to do this next year!!

Loved it! You can fit right in with 🧚‍♂️ Fairies too!

It came out so nice too!

For the u.ninitiated the Ren Faire does not require period Garb. It makes you feel like a part of the village then go for it but it is not required

You look gorgeous. Fully into this!💜💜💜

This video has the BEST vibes totally loved this

Loving the garb you put together.

Really fun video, thanks!

I have never been to a Ren Faire, but I’ve recently learned about their existence and as a girl who enjoys fantasy this seems like a fun summer activity! I’m telling my mom about this tomorrow!

Moresca is amazing!!! And squirrel is the best!

Huzzah for supporting local artists! I’d love to know which faire you were at. Ours is the Minnesota faire and I’ve been patronizing it since the 80s. I even worked for a friend of mine who was a pen/ink and watercolor artist for several years. I have wool capes and ponchos from Half Moon Traveler, belts, pouches and mug straps from Renaissance Leather, many hair toys from The Bronze Jewelers (look them up online, you’ll love them), jewelry from several artists, a handmade parasol, hand dyed silk scarves and many pieces of garb from a tailor friend. He’s making us bespoke outfits this spring for our faire this year. I’m so excited!

On a word - beautiful - Outfit.

Loved the video, loved the mask use, loved hearing you care about size inclusivity

This was a great video!!! I love a shopping spree!!!

I love the outfit!

I hope to go to this year. If you ever get the chance, there is a booth in the far back left corner of the fair that sells discounted corsets if you ever wanted to give them a try.

That is very nice Renaissance outfits, very fantasy one

This is my local ren faire!! In my state!! It's the best one!! I am so glad seeing other people love it so much. It is home & where I consider my family to be.

Live been to Texas renn fests for a decade plus now. It’s really interesting seeing what’s similar and what’s different between them and this one

Ahh, Crownsville--my favorite!

You'd have a wonderful time here in the UK. We do multiperiod battles etc in actual medieval castles. They have all stalls out, and people doing medieval crafts. The last time I went to one it was a place called Kirby hall. An Elizabethan country house, and they did this 16th century procession , and they had a woman dressed as Elizabeth 1st on horseback , white face and everything. Against the back drop of this tall 16th century country house, it gave me goosebumps. She looked bloody amazing !!!

Potomac Leather makes the FINEST stuff. I got my belt and belt pouches from them for my own garb, and my husband got his wedding vest from them!

Not me mentally putting together an outfit. That black hooded vest did me in. I cannot unsee it 😩✨

I recognized the MD ren faire immediately!
