Is March 1, the day of trinket. To welcome spring, we made mărțișoare and cards for loved ones, we will expose at School and Municipal Museum. You're welcome!
Dear Romanian team we love the romanian martişor and know the history of this lovely white-red ribbon , also love the snowdrops. seasonal greetings Turkish team
In Greece we have also the custom "Martis" or "Martia". The 1rst of March the children wear this white-red thread called "Martis". Tradition says that wearing "Martis" they will not be burnt from the spring sun. They wear it until the first swallows arrive. Then the children let these threads on the trees, so that swallows will use them to make their nests. :)
Thank you Yildiz and Anastasia! Martisor is a little piece of adornment tied to a string in a thread woven white and one red, which appears in the Romanian tradition and neighboring populations. Women and girls receive trinkets and wear them during March, as a sign of spring arrival.
