Every year around this time, a small but charming town near where I live (Thiene), organizes an historical reenactment bringing back the main streets to the 1492. Last year we stopped just to have dinner, it was cold, Alma was a newborn, so we didn’t give attention to the outfitting. Well, this year we arrived in the morning, we saw a show for kids, we ate, and we really enjoyed costumes, horses and stands.
I also came back with a new idea (and i really don’t need new stuff to do!): to create a crown for Zoe… I’m already hunting on pinterest for templates and models!
Ogni anno in questi giorni una piccola ma incantevole città vicino a dove vivo organizza una rievocazione storica riportando la via principale e quelle intorno al 1492. L’anno scorso ci siamo fermati solo per cena, era freddo, Alma era una neonata, e non abbiamo prestato molta attenzione all’allestimento. Ma quest’anno siamo arrivati la mattina, abbiamo assistito ad uno spettacolo per bambini, abbiamo mangiato e ci siamo davvero goduti i costumi, i cavalli e le bancarelle. Ho anche avuto una nuova idea (e davvero non ho bisogno di altre idee di cose da fare!): fare una corona per Zoe. Sto già cercando su pinterest idee e modelli!
