EXHIBIT 10.7

                                PROMISSORY NOTE

$626,367.00                                       October 31, 1995

For value received, the undersigned, CROWN CRAFTS, INC., a
Georgia corporation ("Maker"), hereby promises to pay to the
order of EDWARD TANNENBAUM, an individual ("Holder"), at such
place as Holder may designate, in lawful money of the United
States of America, the principal sum of Six Hundred Twenty-six
Thousand Three Hundred Sixty-seven Dollars ($626,367.00),
together with interest thereon from the date hereof.  Interest on
the principal sum shall accrue at the rate of six and one-quarter
percent (6.25%) per annum.  The entire balance of principal, and
all interest accrued thereon, shall be due and payable in full on
January 10, 1996 (the "Maturity Date").  Payment of the entire
balance of principal, and all interest accrued thereon, shall be
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account
designated by Holder prior to the Maturity Date.

If this Note is not paid by the Maturity Date, Maker promises to
pay all costs of collection, including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys' fees.

Maker expressly waives presentment, protest and demand, notice of
protest, demand and dishonor and nonpayment of this Note and all
other notices of any kind.  To the fullest extent permitted by
law, the defense of the statute of limitations in any action on
this Note is waived by the undersigned.

This Note has been executed and delivered in the State of
California and is to be governed by and construed according to
the laws thereof, except to the extent that such laws are
preempted by federal law.

No single or partial exercise of any power hereunder shall
preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other power.  No delay or omission on the part of Holder in
exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such
right or of any other right under this Note.  Acceptance of any
sum by Holder that is less than full payment shall not be
construed as a waiver of any default in the payment of this Note.

All agreements between Maker and Holder are expressly limited so
that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of
advancement of the proceeds hereof, acceleration of maturity of
the unpaid principal balance hereof, or otherwise, shall the
amount paid or agreed to be paid to Holder for the use,
forbearance or detention of the money to be advanced hereunder
exceed the highest lawful rate permissible under applicable usury
laws.  If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any
provision hereof, at the time performance of such provision shall
be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity
prescribed by law that a court of competent jurisdiction may deem
applicable hereto, then ipso facto, the obligation to be
fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if
from any circumstances Holder shall ever receive 



as interest an amount that would exceed the highest lawful rate,
such amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied to
the reduction of the unpaid principal balance due hereunder and
not to the payment of interest.
