Robert Williams Mardi Gras Madness was born as a result of long years of dreams, special talent, and hard work. At 8 years of age, l began constructing hand-crafted floats from a shoe box, paper, glue, and paint. After years of attending Mardi Gras parades and observing every angle and picking up the smallest details of various floats. l constructed a miniature version of a double deck Mardi Gras float. l used the pattern to create and transform it to a float kit that can be assembled for kids. The excellent reception my float received fired my ambition to own a business specializing in custom handmade DIY New Orleans style miniature Mardi Gras single, Double-deck deck and super double-deck tandem season and non-seasonal centerpiece floats.
