Krewe of Muses - The Complete 2011 Shoe Collection

After months spent at a crafts table surrounded by glue gun strings, glitter, sequins, and flowers, I have put away my crafting  supplies away.  That can mean only one thing, there's less than ten days till Krewe of Muses 2011 hits the streets of New Orleans.  I've put all of my shoes in their own ziplocks, and I have packed them away in a bead bag.  There are ready for the 2011 ride!!!

Here's a look at the whole collection...

The flower collection...











A salute to our NOPD officers.  I thought I'd give this one to one of the officers on Canal Street. 

 Every year we see some men and women of the US Armed Forces in uniform on the parade route.  I'm hoping to find one for this shoe!

 As a tribute to Trombone Shorty who will be playing at our parade's after party, here's a New Orleans jazz shoe!

For all you Strawberry Shortcake fans out there!!!

 My Mardi Gras Madness Collection



The Butterfly Collection




For the Muses in Waiting

Each year, Mark gets to pick one shoe for us to keep.  This shoe was my favorite, and he was so sweet to pick it!!!!!


Countdown begins...  Nine days and counting!!!!!

  13. You need to share your shoes creations on Martha Stewart's blog. The "Muses Ladies" need to invite Martha to ride a float.
