I shared my Muses glittery shoe collection last week. Today, I’d like to share with you my collection of glittery purses from the all-woman Krewe of Nyx.
Though only three years old, the ladies of the Krewe of Nyx “throw” a great parade.
Like Muses, the Krewe of Nyx has a signature throw. Muses is the shoe while Nyx throws glittery handbags.
Here are my collection so far:
I have them displayed in the large apothecary jars in the parlor niches.
I’ll be looking for my former neighbor Nancy in tonight’s parade.
And thanks Nancy for the early delivery of my newest bag.
Rain, rain stay away and throw me somethin’ mister! The Krewe of Nyx rolls tonight along the Uptown route.
Happy Birthday to my “cousin” Monique! Cheers!
Glittery purses, y’all!
That's about the only throw I've seen that I would prefer over a Moon Pie!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Monique!
ReplyDeleteAnother great collection, Ron! All along, I thought the only trinkets that were thrown during the parade were the beads! I must make a trip to NOLA during Carnival season!
How fun! I have never heard if this Krewe, but I must add them to my parade list the next time I'm there for the season. Loving your posts on Mardi Gras - they are such a treat for those of us who wish we could be there!
ReplyDeleteMy 'bonus' daughter is in the Krewe of Nyx. I should have asked her to send me one but you can believe I'm putting in my order now for next year. Laissez les bon temps roulez, chere!
ReplyDeleteLove the glittery purses! It must be nice to have a neighbor who rides in Nyx and hand delivered your purse before the parade. Hoping that the rain goes away before they roll. Have a great day! xoxo
ReplyDeleteWhat fun collections. Love the way you've displayed them Happy Birthday to your cousin.
ReplyDeleteLovely purses.

Good picture of you and Nique.
Great idea to display them in the jar. Love the pinks.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice collection of purses. They look good in the apothecary jars. I don't think you can ever leave New Orleans because you have too much fun with this time of year.
ReplyDeleteGreat collection of purses!!!! Happy Birthday to your sweet Cousin, too! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteHi Ron! Oh, how marvelous this crew tosses out these sweet little purses! We just get beads, candy and stuffed animals! :) You have a great collection and I love how you're displaying them! Continue to enjoy Mardi Gras!
