Home: Louisiana, United States

I started making chain maille and scale maille to wear to the Renaissance Festival. I love trying new techniques and patterns. I make scale tops, chest pieces, pauldrons, skirts/belts, dice bags, mini dragon sculptures, fidget toys, and jewelry.

I've dabbled in various crafts. Making new things is a fun challenge for me. I enjoy creating costumes for the Renaissance Festival. Creating new things with chain maille and scale maille has been a fun adventure for me!

What Inspired You to Make This?

I wanted to wear a Viking costume to the Renaissance Festival. I saw several things online and wanted to try making my own costume. I enjoyed making my first piece and have continued to make new ones.
