Olga I like your diary. The outside looks like dreams from a better past. What probably our time will be. ;)

Spring is on its way and to celebrate that in Romania we have an age old custom for men to give women Martisoare.
They are small objects with a red and white thread, given on March 1st (hence the name: small March'ies)
Here's a selection of some, my friend and I made from porcelain this year.

It just so happens that Yes, I'm so Happy because one of those little Martisoare arrived in my letter box, just yesterday March 3rd. It is delightful and I do thank you so very much Razvan. A little treasure to hang on my wall where I can see it all the time. :-*

Howdy All,

Now I feel REALLY inadequate!!  ::)

Axel,  those foil masterpieces are glorious.  Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!

So many other wonderful things in this topic too, including those cute little owls, and the christmas trees, that mirror, the diary, the March 1st thingies ;) and so many more.  I got nothing!!  ::)

Yvonne was a card maker, having a group of friends who'd get together and make stuff.  I do a little quilling, but has been years since I've done any, and I was never any good at it. :-\

Thanks so much for sharing your skills everyone.  Positively brilliant.
Cheers.

I am so glad it arrived in one piece and you like it.
I was a bit worried, travelling thousands of miles in the post.
