it is a birthday tradition that i make hadley a piñata for her party.
we are expecting eighteen[!] kids this saturday – so this year’s piñata will be a big one.
the piñata is also used in our thank you cards! year five [pink]. a photo of the post-party glittery mess made pretty cards [above].
year four [purple + butterflies]. a photo collage of our friends wearing the piñata as a hat made fun thank you cards [below].
this year’s piñata theme: neon pink + silver metallic.
only five days to go before the big day + i have alot of work to do! [unfortunately, last-minute pinata decorating is also a birthday tradition!]
have a great week + i will be back next monday with photos to share!

This is only 12 months late… just came across this post and I had to laugh. We made a pinata for my daughter’s Frida Kahlo party. It was big, with bright paper flowers all over it…and ultimately the girls had to take to it with a softball bat to get it open! And then the party girl wore it on her head !!! Pinata party hat- must be a thing .
