Throw Me Something, Ma’am, Guest Photos
Blog Contributor Michelle Duplichien [Archives] is a sister of the Mystic Krewe of Nyx, a New Orleans Mardi Gras organization. Their parade throw is purses, or more accurately sculptural objects that started life as purses. This year, one of Michelle’s purses was inspired by Stepping Stone Farm and the American Saddlebred. Michelle painted and decorated the body of the purse and handwove the handle.
