  Laura C. asked:

  Hello Crafty Folk! I am looking for a commission on a Norse under dress and apron dress. Specific colours (purple under dress and dark blue apron dress). With trim (purples, blues, greens) for both and the treasure necklace and brooches for the apron. I don't have the time to figure out how to make something I have never done before. I'm preferably looking for someone in the Comox Valley to make it. (easier for me to pick up) If not, willing to travel or pay for postage. I have all my measurements. Just need a price range and I will go from there. Also, it would be better for me if I only have to deal with one person for all of these things. But if I can't, that's okay too. Thanks! :)

  

  Lisa S. replied:

  If time is an issue, don't worry about the brooches and beads. Not everyone even wore them so it's not "required". You can always add them later on. For brooches, I'd recommend ordering them online from here http://quietpress.com/

  Fair warning though, if you go to Raymond's Quiet Press, you will not come back with money. He has very high quality stuff at great prices.

  Vera D. asked:

  I hope this isn't the wrong group for this question (if so, I apologise). Does anyone know a good place to find reasonable budget tortoise/oval brooches? Or perhaps somebody has some old ones (pun intended) for sale? Thank you!

  

  Liz S. replied:

  Quietpress.com A variety of prices and the work looks good.

  Raymond's Quiet Press has great pieces cast in bronze for very affordable prices, and they are based off of historical finds. Everything that I have purchased from him has been very well made. https://www.quietpress.com/

  Walknut W. asked:

  Hi^^! I am just starting my first viking outfit, I am trying to do everything myself but I have some problems to find the oval brooches. I have found some amazing artists who make incredible pieces, but each one costs too much for me. More than 200 euros. It is a pity, obviously they deserve that high price but I am a spanish student and I can not afford to pay such prices, or not yet. I would like to find any craftsman or artist who could do something similar to the oval brooches, even though they had worse quality or material than the good ones. I can not afford more than 100 euros for both brooches. Could anybody help me? Thanks so much and congratulations for the group.

  

  Erin H. replied:

  I'm not sure how many Euro's is in US dollars, but this guy is pretty reasonable. https://www.quietpress.com/

  

  Liz S. replied:

  Contact: WWW.quietpress.com. Raymond is very affordable.

  Susan T. asked:

  Does anyone know where I can get the metal hangers to suspend several rows of beads from? Preferable in the UK? The last person I asked got hers in the USA. I have seen some in a continental reenactors site, but they were a bit pricey.
