You might be a rennie if you take laces out of shoes before throwing them away.. Never know you might need laces.

You are trying to figure out what garb you will wear to the Hobbit movie..

or have people look at you really strange when you say you want to go in garb, but need something that'll look right bare foot.

you toss your name into your works secret santa hat, and end up getting mead and a ring belt.

This keeps showing up on packages in the mail.... I keep seeing on a field sable, a pair of hare embattled argent.

When you go to new faire and give directions to a shop to a group of lost Danes and they get where they want to go.

You are waiting at the restaurant to be seated, and at the same time, both you and your husband look at the curtains and say "That fabric would make great garb."

It happened this morning when we took both boys out for brunch, the oldest was visiting from Boston, so we took them out before he left to drive back to the airport.

My work Christmas card to 370 coworkers, 7 sales reps, and 100 customers.  And you can't believe how many compliments I received back.  People were saying how cool it is, they loved the garb, looks like we have a lot of fun.  So - maybe potential new rennies?

You can identify the faire in a random picture on Flickr just by the peasants.

I was having Dinner at the Red Lion Inn in Avebury, England. I noticed the drapes were a deep red velour with gold (Not Yellow, NOT Tan, GOLD) embroidery.  THIS was the material I have been looking for for years for a Great Coat or Skirted Doublet!

I quietly told my friend, " You create a distraction, I gonna grab 2 or 3 of these drapes!"

He looked at me so seriously, and said, "Don't... you... dare!"

He knew I REALLY wanted them!

Your son is recently accepted to college.  You immediately look at the college calendar to see when he will "be away at school" so you can plan some weekend trips to other faires.

This is inspired by my mom when you get a new home you have one room outbuilding installed just for your sewing stuff and its still not enough room.
