[Bryn-gwlad] Candlemas costume planning

[Blue Bains]

I have some glass beads that I would be more than happy to bring to pip, not
sure how many of them would be considered " period" as I am new and not
quite educated as of yet. I would love to trade beads and information as
well. Just tell me when and I'll be there ! =)
