About Me
Mambo Midge was created by Midge Howe (me!) in 2022 and operates out of New Orleans, Louisiana. The purpose of Mambo Midge was to create fun Mardi Gras headpieces, but has grown into so much more.
After a crazy 2022 Mardi Gras season and a humbling Muses headpiece competition win, the small business expanded to jewelry, accessories, and a loud and proud platform for activism.
My goal is to spread joy and my love of Louisiana to all of you!

Charities I support
Mambo Midge started as a Mardi Gras headpiece business but has now helped me to raise money for the causes I cared about most.
These are a few of the organizations that collectively we (you and I) have supported with donations!
