Fiesta Party Ideas - Piñatas, Maracas and Sombreros
What fiesta party would be complete without maracas, sombreros and piñatas? Our complete fiesta party supplies selection includes these great party supplies plus many more.
Piñatas are by far the most popular of all fiesta party supplies. Piñatas come in all sizes and shapes. A true pinata is produced in Mexico and is made of paper mache and colorful tissue. This traditional piñata is filled with piñata filler such as small toys and hard candy. Each participant takes a turn at striking the piñata....usually blindfolded. Eventually the piñata bursts and the loot is released to the excited participants. While this piñata is very popular the liability of a swinging stick has increased....thus the birth of a kinder, more gentle pinata, the pull ribbon piñata.
Pull ribbon piñatas are made of the same materials as a conventional piñata but there are some major differences. At the base of the piñata is a secret trap door. Attached to the trap door are 20-30 colorful ribbons, one of these ribbons is attached so that when tugged the door will open and the treasure will release. No swinging stick will hurt the participants and there is just as much anticipation and fun. Pull ribbon pinatas are one of our fiesta party supplies that has become even more popular than the conventional style piñata.
Maracas are a staple party item at fiesta parties. Although the true purpose of a maraca is musical in nature this fun fiesta item has become both a great fiesta decoration and fiesta party favor. Traditional maracas are made of fine hard woods and hand painted with intricate designs. The mass production of maracas actually takes place in Chinese factories and maracas are now produced in plastic as well as wood. Plastic maracas are available in a mini size which makes a great table decoration or centerpiece accent. The maracas can also be given as a party favor at the end of the event.
The mexican sombrero is a great hat, wall decoration, centerpiece, favor or basis for a party activity. Sombreros are available in adult, child and mini sizes. Plan an activity with fiesta foil decorations and confetti. See who can make the most glamorous and glitzy sombrero by pasting decorations to the crown and brim. The sombrero, maraca and piñata are all quintessential icons of the perfect fiesta party.
