New Orleans Bead Tree Tee
Available in Large at NOLA Grace Boutique
If you’ve ever walked the streets of New Orleans after Mardi Gras, you’ve seen one of the city’s most magical sights—Bead Trees. These colorful landmarks aren’t created by design but by tradition, as thousands of parade beads become tangled in the sprawling branches of our historic live oaks.
⚜️ Along St. Charles Avenue, the iconic streetcar route comes alive with towering oak trees draped in shimmering purple, green, and gold beads. These sparkling trees have become a beloved symbol of Carnival, reminding everyone of the joy, laughter, and memories made during parade season.
🎭 Another famous Bead Tree tradition lives on at Tulane University, where students once decorated the campus oaks with Mardi Gras beads for good luck before exams. Today, custom Bead Tree sculptures continue that unique New Orleans tradition.
This beautiful tee celebrates one of Louisiana’s most treasured and recognizable Carnival traditions. Featuring a stunning Mardi Gras Bead Tree design, it’s perfect for locals, visitors, and anyone who carries a little piece of New Orleans in their heart.
