Fashion Dolls 101

Regular patrons of the Tennessee Renaissance Festival in Arrington, Tennessee, every May are familiar with the antics of Looney Lucy. The ribald member of Celtic Hats music group is known as much for her off-color humor as she is for beating the Celtic drum. Always dressed in rags, with missing teeth, she is a fixture at the Tenn Ren Fest.  Just when you thought Looney Lucy had already done it all, she came out with her own rag dolls this year. Dressed in burnt-orange tops with olive green skirts, and a cord rope around their waist, the $5 rag dolls may not be things of beauty, but they are cute. If you like whimsical, homey, maybe even slightly homely dolls, a Looney Lucy doll might be just what you are looking for! Find them at the 36the Annual Tennessee Renaissance Festival every weekend in May   Related Articles:  36th Annual TN Ren Fest Going on Now   Everyone Loves Holly Hobbie Dolls--a Piece of Americana

Cloth dolls at the Tennessee Ren Fest At this year's Tennessee Ren Fest there were some cute little cloth dolls for sale. Dressed in renaissance gowns, the dolls were trimmed with bits of lace and ribbon. Dolls are not always found at a Renaissance Festival so these were a particularly nice find. A tapestry with a dog dressed as Queen Elizabeth Costumes are always plentiful as are various other arts and crafts. For collectors of the cute and unusual, there were even tapestries from Europe of dogs in historic poses. Scenes from the 2018 Tennessee Renaissance Festival Ren Faires are colorful and imaginative and a fun way to spend the day. If your city hosts a renaissance festival, try to catch it. There you will make your own colorful finds!
