Inspiration for a bright and festive Navidad tree
December 04, 2018
To continue the love of our heritage, and get my children more involved with our cultural traditions, I decorated our main Christmas tree with all sorts of fun hispanic decor! I knew my theme was meant to be a couple years ago when I happened upon some festive piñata ornaments, chili peppers, cacti, and brightly colored bulbs at Target - muy perfecto!
I added felt Papel Picado that I had previously bought from Michael's. It helped bring our tree to life with its bold design and beautiful, bright colors!
I'm a huge fan of repurposing - especially when it comes to my party decor! I love using the same items for different themes. For example, I used these darling piñata cacti in my cocktails and cactus party. They worked out perfectly on my Navidad tree this year!
I couldn't decide on just a few fiesta themed ornaments from Target... I wanted ALL of them!
I also carried the fiesta decor over to my mantle. I added some green pre-lit garland and added a couple maracas, mini sombreros and a piñata that I got from Shindigz. I also added in a few toy guitars. I set out a serape, and added in some faux roses.
I can't wait to sit down with mi familia and discuss old and new traditions! It's little moments like these that help bring fun memories to life during the holidays.
