Fleur-de-Lis (Elective Post)


When I started my blog, I made a poll to guess how many symbols of the fleur-de-lis I would see while I saw in New Orleans. Throughout my entire time there, I was able to count 31 different times I saw the fleur-de-lis throughout the city (check out some of the pictures below)! I was amazed at how many different times I saw this French symbol. I was able to see this symbol on plates, napkins, flags, and even on city blocks on the street. It was really neat to see how often this symbol was represented and the significance of it as well. Out of all the times I saw the fleur-de-lis, my favorite was on a Christmas display. This symbol was put on every tree that was displayed on the balcony and made for a very New Orleans Christmas feel. I'm so happy to have seen this symbol displayed throughout the different area in New Orleans. I can say that overall I had a great time looking for each of these symbols all throughout the city! 







Until next time,
Hannah
