[dateline] => 1551518364 [message] => March is here and so is Spring!!! OK, we're still at the very start but sun is shining (at least where I live :D)! There is a tradition in Greece (and I suppose in many other countries, too) to put on your hand a string of red and white thread on 1st of March. Explanations for this tradition are a lot and vary; and we don't have enough space to put them all here! ;P Maybe in another thread... However, I made an alternative of this red & white string; I stitched some narrow bracelets with red thread on white aida - with patterns from Greek traditional costumes - and gave them to friends and relatives. I even managed to sell some in a museum shop!!! (very proud of it!). So, here you can see some of my bracelets.

[Processing Crafts] 1st of March Bracelets!!!

March is here and so is Spring!!! OK, we're still at the very start but sun is shining (at least where I live :D)!
There is a tradition in Greece (and I suppose in many other countries, too) to put on your hand a string of red and white thread on 1st of March. Explanations for this tradition are a lot and vary; and we don't have enough space to put them all here! ;P Maybe in another thread...
However, I made an alternative of this red & white string; I stitched some narrow bracelets with red thread on white aida - with patterns from Greek traditional costumes - and gave them to friends and relatives. I even managed to sell some in a museum shop!!! (very proud of it!).
So, here you can see some of my bracelets. Hope you like them! :loveliness:

I'll explain more in pm ;)  Post time 2019-3-7 13:30
Thank you, my friend! I'm so glad you like it! :) Well, this bracelet has many symbolisms: luck, protection, fertility, pure love. It is mostly connected with the first sun of spring and swallow birds  Post time 2019-3-7 13:29
