After the lovely mass, I asked Father Andy if I could take a few extra palms. Tonight I braided most of them, using techniques my older sister taught me and some online tutorials. The three I didn't braid I put into a plastic bag in the fridge with a little water, so they'll be pliable tomorrow.
I love these because of the tradition, and because it is a pretty way to display palms. Once fully dry they shrink and sometimes the shape of the braid changes a little. But I have always thought they are still beautiful.
Do you have Palm Sunday traditions?
