It's Mardi Gras Time {Acorn Cottage: Front Porch}

 J and I spend so much time on the front porch when the weather is warmer. And during the Mardi Gras season, you never know how the weather will be. The front porch is always fun to decorate seasonally because the decorations are protected from the elements. Large masks, Mardi Gras blooms, and garlands are all used to promote the spirit of the Carnival season. A regal acorn graces the door... why not?

It's Mardi Gras Time {Acorn Cottage Facade}

 It's that time of year again - time for purple, green, and gold. The Acorn Cottage is bedecked in the three traditional colors of the season, and we are waiting for the parades to begin. I enjoy decorating for Mardi Gras, and I love to witness many folks stopping by for photos.

It's Mardi Gras Time {Let's Get Lit}

 It's always a good day when the fellas from Let's Get Lit change out the bulbs on the roofline of the house. In most other cities decorations are put away in the days after Christmas. Well, they are not in the city of New Orleans. The celebrations continue as January 6 marks the beginning of the Carnival season. Check out the before and after Let's Get Lit made their change.
