The biggest decorating trend in New Orleans spring 2021 was to create a “House Float”, by decorating a front porch to resemble a Mardi Gras parade float. This originated as a program to employ carnival artists whose livelihood was put on hold during pandemic lockdowns. While a house can illustrate any theme imaginable, one common trend on our Southern homes is large decorative flowers.

While most artists use traditional paper and glue techniques, I developed a method that is based on awning construction and materials. My flowers have metal frames, sun-proof plastic petals, deck-grade wood, and no glue. They can be fully exposed to weather.

Most flowers in nature have 5 petals, but I prefer the fullness of 6 petal constructions and enjoy the visual fantasy.

I have some inventory listed below! Any flowers can be made to order. Measurements are diameter from petal tip to tip. Pickup or delivery in New Orleans, shipping also available.
