It is the Saints Football Team symbol. I live just outside of New Orleans.

I, too, have had requests for a fleur de lis, made out of balloons. I have tried a couple things, but it just doesn't come out looking right.

Mark,
That is very similar to the one I made. Mine was not a hat, and it was much smaller though. For some reason, the person I made it for didn't seem to be very impressed with it. I guess you can't please everyone.
By the way, I missed your article in the last issue of The Magic Menu. I was looking forward to it.

I made a larger fleur de lis tonight (similar to the one Mark pictured), at one of my restaurants, And it was a big hit. I ended up having 5 or 6 other people, at different tables, wanting one, after they saw it. Thanks Mark !!

Unfortunately, I don't normally carry a camera with me, when I go to any of the restaurants that I work. So, I don't have pics. I will make another one, here at home, and post a pic for you. It really looks like the one Mark made though. I'll post pic soon.

That looks good. If you were near Miami you would be making a ton of them I'm sure. If I see the pic right it is three black 260's tied at the end with a yellow 260 wrapped around twice attached to the hat. Mind if I use it?

2 black 1 260 1 160 and 160 golden rod.

Make the bottom 3 loops then split the remainder into two large loops.
make hat and loop the stick.
twist three large loops together
use 160 goldenrod the accent the center and create stability

Have fun....
