This is a miniature replica of the shoes that are the signature throw from the Krewe of Muses parade at Mardi Gras in New Orleans. The Krewe members, along with local artists, hand decorate women’s shoes in elaborate designs with a rainbow of glitter, feathers, beads, and findings in any theme you can imagine and these shoes are thrown (well, handed down) from the riders on the floats to parade goers. Over the 25 years Muses has rolled, each Mardi Gras season, these shoes have become more and more sought after and highly collectible catches. This miniature replica is hand decorated by me, as a local artist, in exactly that tradition and the shoe itself comes from the Krewe of Muses parade. Each shoe is OOAK and totally unique and is crafted with the utmost regard to detail and whimsy. Whether you line them up along a window sill, along your mantle, wear them on a necklace, set them on your desk or dashboard, or display them anywhere you can enjoy them, these are the perfect way to show your love for the Krewe, her parade, and New Orleans Mardi Gras. They make such a fun, adorable conversation piece (would that be a conversation piece or “small” talk?…🤔😄) and make great gifts or party favors. This tiny shoe could start your amazing collection today!
