Pallet for Home: Cinco De Mayo

Cinco De Mayo

Friday, May 4, 2012

I'm a Southwest Native. Consequently I love Mexican Food. Cinco De Mayo is pretty big around here, mostly for others it's an excuse to drink, but since I don't drink, it's a time to get together and have some amazing Mexican Food.

You know I'm making some of these. My favorite!

I also love to make some fun decorations to celebrate. This year I only spent about $3.50. $2 for tissue paper at the dollar store, and $1.50 for ribbon from Walmart. I haven't finished my table-scape yet, I'll share when it's done, but the wall deco is done. Not to bad if I do say so myself.

The bunting was just little pieces of scrapbook paper cut as shown and sewn onto tiny ribbon.

I made about a eleventy-billion tissue paper flowers with the help of my friend {C}. Some smaller, some bigger, some fuller, some less full. I like the variety.

For some reason the lighting in my kitchen is kinda bad. Sorry about that. The Banner just says "Fiesta" about 3 times. I used my Cricut to cut the letters.
