(Available from 12th Night through Mardi Gras only.) Y’all, I can’t EVEN with all this cuteness! I had sooo much fun making these little guys! This King Cake and Mud Baby earring set is made from Louisiana red mud off the banks of the Red River and is a great way to celebrate and represent such a meaningful tradition. The King Cake is traditionally eaten on January 6 in honor of Epiphany, or Twelfth Night, which historically marks the arrival of the three wise men/kings in Bethlehem who delivered gifts to the baby Jesus. (The plastic baby hidden inside king cakes today is a nod to this story.)
I’ve formulated the perfect combination of red soil and moldable binders to create these gorgeous pieces of wearable art. Each piece is carefully sealed in a protective coating so there is no worry of staining or damaging your clothing. And NO - Muddy Boot Jewelry does NOT dissolve in water. All pieces are bound by a plasticizing element that secures their shape and integrity. A jewelry care card is included to help you ensure that your special piece is well preserved and maintains its vibrance.
