It’s Carnival Time… Napoleon Avenue Fence

 

J & I love this shot that he took on Napoleon Avenue just blocks from the house a couple years ago. We even “fought” over it for our facebook cover pic. He won! The shot is so New Orleans.

I sent the photo to Lisa Papa, a Thibodaux artist, to use her creativity on one of her homemade lumbar pillows. I love the progress she has made. More later!

From fence to art, y’all!

  1. Ron, that picture is gorgeous I see why you both would love it. Are the pillows going to be for sale? Or is it just a project she is working on for you??

    Have a blessed week.

  10. That's going to be a stunning pillow. You are so clever, Ron. I'd rather have the image on a pillow than FB any day. Ha!
