Little Gifts from Croatia

 

 

I just fell in love with this little Licitar Heart which I found in a souvenir shop in Porec, Croatia.

 

Licitars are used for decoration, sold as souvenirs, and given as gifts on special occasions like weddings, Valentine's Day, and other holidays.They are often decorated with a mirror in the center, representing the presence of the receiver in the Licitar-giver's heart and the heart is usually edible and made from a honey dough.

 

I got the little doily from an elderly woman which crochet this one and many others and sold them to tourists.

 

Next time I will buy even more crochet items and of course other handmade items since now I know what to look for.

 

 

     Have a great day!

Cheers!
