With Cinco de Mayo right around the corner, I’m sharing a few DIY party ideas that will impress your guests and keep your impact on the environment to a minimum. Let the good times roll…
A piñata has the power to turn a simple gathering into a real party! Upcycle empty toilet paper rolls and create festive piñata garland. If you’re looking to create a more traditional piñata, fashion an old cardboard box into your favorite shape, cover it with used tissue paper and hang it up with a sturdy piece of twine.
Spice up your table with these adorable tin “vases.” A great way to re-use any empty cans you may have on hand after cooking up a Mexican feast! Simply fill the cans with water and add in whatever locally grown blooms you can find.
With all the guacamole you’re going to make, you’ll likely have plenty of avocado skins lying around. Before you throw them in the compost bin, you can put them to good use. Skip the appetizer plates and serve your homemade guac right out of the avocado itself!
