(sorry, you have to see a car dealer adfirst) My "crown" is a tube stuffed with old shoulder pads and wrapped with trim. Found the jacket at a thrift and added glitz to the collar. Too bad they don't show much of my bell cover...



Next year, battery lights.

How you like Silent Sequin Butterfly Babe? She had on long underwear with her get-up.

She was a hoot. Flutter flutter flutter. And I think long johns was probably a good idea!!! lol Least y'all didn't have 3 feet of snow to wade through during your parade. I don't think upstate NY had very many outdoor Mardi Gras activities.

They do a MG parade here on Fat Tuesday down by the U of AR campus every year. Just keep that in mind if, y'know, you want to go someplace a little warmer next year, and can't swing a trip all the way to New Orleans. ;)
