Baba Marta seems like such a spirited and lovely tradition. It's truly great to take even the smallest part in an interesting custom! Here's my try at a martenitsa bracelet. . .

Used mostly glass at first...

thought it needed a couple more silvers...asked the sparrow to stand in for a swallow...

Here's to good health....

Beautiful dark reds and white - could you tell me if the ruby is Troll or artisan - it is such a nice one!
