There s...I wish you, with all sincerity good luck. There seems to be a "click" when it comes to making your own bunads with original Norwegian materials. And if you truly want it to be an "authentic" bunad (vs. a costume), beware of the "bunad police" who will criticize and pick your bunad apart to pieces, according to their very specific guidelines. My grandmother, who was born and raised in Stavanger Norway had an authentic Hardanger bunad and it would have failed miserably in the face of the "bunad police". From my experience, it is next to impossible to order from Norway companies. My best advice is to try to sew a bunad based solely on any family photos you have. I know that the cost of having a bunad, (not sure which regions cost the same) can cost upwards to $3,000 in U.S. dollars.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482993435043426605.post-84286979078410615202014-05-22T08:01:04.122+02:002014-05-22T08:01:04.122+02:00Hei,

The patterns and such I will probably learn from the family monarch (my husband's grandmother) who has been embroidering Hardanger bunads for a very long time.<br /><br />I wondered, where did you purchase the purse packs from? I think it is an excellent idea for storing the silver and a good way to practice. Please let me know :)Malhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02902601204977417121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482993435043426605.post-70441090798362446452014-04-29T13:08:52.901+02:002014-04-29T13:08:52.901+02:00If you are in Norway, they have ribbons at both Hu...If you are in Norway, they have ribbons at both Husfliden and Heimen Husflid. If you are not situated in a town with any of these stores, you can either try another bunad supplier or try to contact them. <br /><br />BenteBente Halvorsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12193138087300135004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482993435043426605.post-326061964042289522014-04-01T00:54:42.546+02:002014-04-01T00:54:42.546+02:00I also would like to make a Bunad, but have no clu...I also would like to make a Bunad, but have no clue as to where to purchase materials needed - especially the ribbon. <br />Can you please help a fellow Norsky?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8482993435043426605.post-11294509081711771952014-01-16T23:38:17.029+01:002014-01-16T23:38:17.029+01:00I would like to make a Bunad for myself--but where...I would like to make a Bunad for myself--but where in the world do you get the fabrics/yarns/patterns etc in the US for the Hardanger Bunad?
