New Orleans Style Umbrellas by Antrelle Banks
Born and
raised in New Orleans, I find that umbrellas are not just for protection against bad
weather, they are works of art!Second line umbrellas are more than a Mardi Gras idea; they can really be used for all occasions and make a great accent piece for any event. I’ve made umbrellas for weddings, birthdays, and even graduation parties.
Crafting umbrellas can be so relaxing and gives this southern mommy a much needed break from the daily chaos of life.
If you are planning to make your own New Orleans style umbrella here are a few tips to remember:
- Be careful with hot glue - hot glue is a great adhesive to use to attach feathers, ornaments, or jewels but remember it is HOT!
- Explore your creativity – umbrellas can be used for any event you want to style. Make it your own! Pick accents, add-ons, and materials that reflect your personality. Have some fun with your designs and really do your thing.
- There is no such thing as too much bling – more is better when it comes to bling! Bedazzle away. I love sparkle and so should you!
