Bobbin lace is something I have yet to try my hand at and probably should.
For an Elizabethan, if you do it out of linen and silk, it might be within your reach, money wise. It won't be hand woven (well, it might be if you get Thai silk) on a 16th c loom, but you can get some pretty fibers for under $5 a yard every so often on fabric.com and ebay...if you want to bother with ebay anymore.
