Yes, Miami had some issues this year, no doubt. But did y’all forget about Jamaica carnival? I know I haven’t. Wanna know why? Because I paid a costume in full and am yet to receive communication, a refund, or some reasonable recourse. My band’s comments are off and the system they used to maintain payments is no longer available. AND they lied to my bank at the end of it all. Check out my experience with the band I registered with, link in bio. ——-This is my experience and the lesson I learned. If you are in a similar situation feel free to share and sound off below.——-#jamaica #jamaicacarnival #carnivalinjamaica #xoduscarnival #caribbeancarnival #masquerader #masband

Why are costumes so expensive?----Im going to break down the cost of feathers used on my backpack for Miami carnival and show you how I broke it down for recycling.----When you register to play mas you don't get JUST a costume. It comes with an overall experience: the trucks, the DJs, the food, alcohol and sometimes even that bathroom trailer. It just all depends on the band. Regardless, you don't pay for JUST a costume.-----The prices of the feathers were based off the prices of a business i've used in the past, but of course price will vary on who you purchase from and the quality of the feathers. Not to mention the price of gems, the price of good wire and paying people to actually produce backpacks. Backpacks are typically produced in stages so all in all, it will take DAYS to get a single backpack to completion.----So next time you see a member of a production team whether it be a wire bender, designer or featherer, show them some love.----Im keeping the gems, wire and a few feathers, but will be donating to local schools and fine arts facilities. I can see a handful of kiddies using those orange goose feathers to create little turkeys ❤️.-----#carnivalcostume #miamicarnival #recycleandreuse #caribbeancarnival #carnivalcostumes #sustainability #recycle
