How would you like to have your own Lombardi Trophy, signed by Saints Coach Sean Payton? You could, if you're the lucky person who wins it -- or at least a version of it.

It's one of 30 decorated shrimp boots being raffled at the New Orleans Home + Interior Design Show this weekend.

There's also one signed by the Manning trinity (Payton, Eli and Archie) with cleats on the bottom. There's a cowboy boot from the Zac Brown Band. And a delightfully witchy pointy-toed boot from the Broadway show "Wicked."
The Krewe of Muses' footwear features a sparkly red high heel. The Commander's Palace creation comes complete with a fully set table, and painter Terrance Osborne's bright little boot-made-into-a-house is a real work of art.
They're all fabulous.
The shrimp boots -- designed, decorated and autographed by local and national celebrities -- will raise money for Catholic Charities' Oil Spill Relief Fund. The Home Builders Association of Greater New Orleans has partnered with Catholic Charities to help families who've lost their livelihoods because of the Gulf oil spill.
