Ole! Happy CINCO DE MAYO! To celebrate this fun day I’m featuring the Cinco de Mayo fiesta that I recently styled!
This setup was so much fun. The bright colors, the succulents, the Mexican inspired food, the maracas, the cactus, the drinks…I just love how it all looked together.

Cute cactus shot glasses filled with yellow jelly belly jelly beans.
The sombrero drink wraps are killing me! Too awesome!
I created a Photo Booth backdrop with a colorful fringe banner and a piñata inspired garland!

I made cactus cupcakes in small terra cotta pots.
The mini fiesta pinatas are another one of my favorite items from the party!

I made the DIY Cactus forks + spoons with wooden utensils, green paint and a black sharpie! Easy as one, two, three!
Could the mini cactus erasers be any cuter?!
The focal point of the table was the long line + centerpiece made with lots and lots of succulents and cacti! Emptied tomato sauce cans made the perfect flower pots.
I love the mini guacamole + 5 layered bean dip glasses! Simply make them by layering refried beans, guacamole, sour cream and salsa. Then top with green onions, olives, tomatoes, and grated cheese!


Mmmmm, churro cupcakes!
I placed mini maracas next to each place setting for dinner entertainment :)

The fiesta flag garlands and fiesta fringe banner set the perfect Cinco de Mayo fiesta mood!
I love the pattern + design of the cups, napkins and plates. And the sombrero suckers were too adorable!
The churro cupcakes looked so festive in the Mexican sombrero with the fiesta flag cupcake toppers / food picks.
The sombrero straws are the perfect excuse to party!
Maraca pen party favors!
I put small plastic mini sombreros on top of drink bottles to add a fiesta flare.






































LOOOVELY! <3
