 "Martisor" (Spring Amulet) is a traditional celebration of the beginning of spring.

  "Martisor" is made from a white and a red string from which a small decoration is tied and is offered to women on 1st March. It is a little symbol of spring. 

 Women usually wear it pinned to their clothes for first 12 days of March. After the 12 days the string binds on a tree branch.

 It is believed that those who symbolic wear it will be strong and healthy for the year to come. Is an old tradition in Romania, in the Republic of Moldova and all territories inhabited by Romanians.
