Mardi Gras Crafts & Decorations - Preparing to Let the Good Times Roll


This year many of us are skipping the Valentines Dates because we are celebrating Mardi Gras all weekend long with all the festivities that are going on. This is the perfect year to make Valentines Day all about the kids and enjoy a adult party with some Mardi Gras Fun { Parade Information coming on Thursday for all over the Gulf Coast}. Mardi Gras is not celebrated everywhere like it is here on the Gulf Coast, I'm not surprised because are kids get 2 days off of school for "Mardi Gras Holidays". So during these days you may be looking for some fun things to do or make to get ready for a Mardi Gras Party. Laissez les bons temps rouler!


Need Something to do with all those beads you've been catching at the parades? {or
maybe from beads you've caught in years past} This bead art is beautiful and very creative!

One of the kids favorite things I've noticed about Mardi Gras besides the beads are the masks. Here is an easy mask that the little ones will love to make and you will want to keep forever.
