Mardi Gras bejeweled masks, glitzy doubleloons and sparkling beads have reached the realm of collectibles. If you will be heading to the “Big Easy” for Mardi Gras this year, keep an eye out for really distinctive sparkling and glittering baubles. 

 All manner of treasure from New Orleans’ Mardi Gras parades are sold online at Ebay and Worthpoint stores.

So it may be worth it to bend-over and pick-up something sparkling in the light.  If you don’t want the parade memento, perhaps you can sell the treasure to someone else to use for Mardi Gras design decor.
