Who Orders Custom Throws

Ways to Use Custom-Artwork Mardi Gras Throws

A classic strand becomes something people keep once the medallion carries a design that means something. Krewes, businesses, and hosts all reach for the same idea: put your own artwork on the throw everyone already loves to catch.

Start Your Design

The difference between a stock strand and a custom one is what happens after the catch. A generic throw gets tossed in a bin. A strand that shows a krewe crest, a company logo, or a family photo gets worn, kept, and brought back out. Below are the three groups that order custom-printed throws most, each with a page that goes deeper.

Where custom throws fit

Krewes with a crest

Put your krewe emblem, colors, and the current year on the strand your riders throw all night, so the crowd knows exactly which float a great catch came from.

Custom krewe throws

Brands going to Carnival

A recognizable logo on a familiar throw travels hand to hand at trade shows, grand openings, and festivals, and it keeps working because people actually wear it.

Branded business beads

Family reunions & milestones

A photo, monogram, or date on a strand becomes a keepsake, not a giveaway, which is why weddings, reunions, and birthdays choose them over disposable favors.

Celebration beads

Why the same idea works for all three

Each group starts from artwork it already owns, whether that is a logo, a crest, or a photograph. That art goes onto a full-color decal medallion or a one-color imprint on a classic Mardi Gras strand, so the throw looks familiar while carrying something that belongs to one krewe, one company, or one event. The bead is fun and wearable, so people put it on instead of pocketing a flyer.

Order a run sized to your event

Custom throws are made to order in smaller quantities, and many can be produced in fourteen days or less, so you can size a run to a single float, a booth, or a guest list. When you know your artwork and count, options and current pricing are handled on the Mardi Gras throws category at PromotionBeads.
