Laissez les bon temps rouler {Parlor}

The parlor is all decorated and ready for guests during this Mardi Gras season. Come on in...

The mantle features my favorite sculpted king, dukes, and revelers by a local artist from Judy at the Rink. They are one of a kind and perfect for the season. 

The large reverse decoupage plate is exclusive to Hazelnut. It is a great addition to any Mardi Gras decor. The ribbon hanging from the mantle is by d. stevens purchased last year at Dunn & Sonnier.

Hermes, the bust, is also ready for the Mardi Gras season too.

The newest addition to my Mardi Gras decor is an illustration by New Orleans artist, Maggie Covert LeBlanc of WalkingMan Studios. I absolutely love the spirit of the piece.

More in the parlor....

Mardi Gras Parlor, y'all!

Heaux. Heaux. Heaux. {It's a Wrap}

I can hardly believe that it is Christmas Eve. It is 77 degrees here in NOLA, and I am sweating. It does not feel like the season to me.

One of the final things to do is to wrap all the gifts in anticipation of good ole St. Nick. I love to wrap, and my wrapping skills were showcased in the latest issue of Adore: click HERE.

For my Christmas presents this season, I chose a lovely hand-drawn paper by local Walkingman Studios. It features illustrated NOLA holiday homes. A simple red ribbon compliments each package.

I also used Emily McCarthy's red spot cheetah paper. A gold bow best compliments the paper.

Are your presents wrapped???

Merry Christmas Eve to all my readers.
