I say this every single year, but I love Mardi Gras. It is truly a stunning holiday to me. Tons of fun to be had for so many reasons. First and foremost, I love Mardi Gras for the food. I cannot even begin to explain how much I adore a holiday that is practically surrounded by Cajun food. Okay, sign me up?
On a serious note, since part of my childhood was in Florida, you can imagine that I had a pretty good connection to Mardi Gras growing up. Not to mention my family is Catholic, so honestly, this is kind of our thing! Anyways, I mention that only to let you know that I am a good person to come to for Mardi Gras. After all, it is in my top three best holidays list.
Some of my favorite things about Mardi Gras are the loud colors, beads, and of course, the masks! There is so much mystery involved with a fun mask, so why not plan on it on such a holiday of the year! Lucky for you, the Party Place has tons of Mardi Gras materials, including loads of masks. I propose that this year we run with the masks and do a masquerade ball!

The best part about decorating for Mardi Gras is that there is no limit. You can quite literally go beyond what you consider over-the-top.
Get the glitz, girls and boys.
Also, do not forget that king cake! The best part of the night if you ask me. I love finding out who is going to get luck for the year with the baby Jesus!
If you want to serve dinner too, you can never go wrong with jambalaya, gumbo, and some good ol’ shrimp po’ boys.
