The festival season is almost over, but you have one more chance to visit our stall. Sunday 31 august we will be at the Rastaplas festival in Zoetermeer, The Netherlands.
You will not only find products from the website in our stall, but also some unique peyote stitch sleeves. These are all handmade by Dreadspullen and will be for sale starting at 5 euro each. The weather forecast is tropical for this sunday, and the entrance to the festival is free. Perhaps we'll meet then!
Dreadspullen were also at the festivals Irie Vibes and Reggae Geel. An Irie Vibes photo album can be found on our website.
