Krewe Throws for One of the Biggest Mardi Gras Outside New Orleans
The Soulard neighborhood in St Louis hosts one of the largest Mardi Gras celebrations in the country, with weeks of events, krewe parades, and a Grand Parade that packs the historic streets. Custom beads and throws give a krewe, a bar, or a business a signature throw printed with a name, a year, or a theme. One branded strand stands out on a route full of beads and becomes the keepsake parade goers chase from float to float.
Throws for the Route
Choose a mix for your krewe or bar:
- Full color medallion beads printed with your krewe name, year, or theme.
- LED light up beads for night events and Soulard bar crowds.
- Shot glass beads for krewe parties and bar tie ins.
- Custom shape beads cut as a fleur symbol, a mask, or your krewe emblem.
- Custom medallion doubloons as signature throws and collector tokens.
Made in the USA and Shipped Nationwide
Every order is designed and printed at our United States facility, and most custom orders are produced in 14 days or less. We ship across the United States, including to St Louis, so you can approve art in the winter and have signature throws ready before the Grand Parade. Order two to three weeks ahead, and ask about rush timing if the parade is close.
Why Krewes Print Their Throws
A plain strand gets lost among thousands. A throw printed with your krewe name and the year becomes a collector item that riders save and parade goers chase. Printed throws set your krewe apart on a busy route and cost less per piece than most custom favors.
