The Big Easy

In New Orleans for Mardi Gras ....CRAZY!  The vibe in the city is amazing, and some of the sights eye-popping.  Lots of fabulous, quirky, eccentric and eclectic creativity around.  LOTS of feathers. My friend Charles took a photo of this mask for me. 

I love peacock feathers. Today I even bought myself a hair ornament with them - gotta go with the Mardi Gras vibe. It is a very pretty thing as you can see from the photo here. Looking forward to wearing it tonight. And it is really making me think about using them again in my books.  The one I've already done (see below) is a great favourite. I've seen so many great sites in this great city that I feel inspired to try them again ... Keep watching!
