I was in New Orleans all last week for work and it was a blast. We did a Shoe Drop at an elementary school (see my post about it here!) and I stayed to visit some other ones for future events. I had been to NOLA before but this time I got a chance to really explore it a little more. The city, particularly the French Quarter, has SO much character...both in the people and the architecture. I found myself fascinated (actually, obsessed) with the balcony railings and metal works on doors and old mail boxes. Lots of fun inspirations :)
