Happythought's Cinco de Mayo Party Kit

You know me, any excuse for a party.  So as the weather is finally showing us some mercy I am going to have an impromptu Cinco de Mayo Bar-B-Q on Sunday and Happy Thoughts Papercraft - I love this company! - are the place to go for my partywares.

Happythought's Cinco de Mayo Party Kit
Above are some of Happythought's printable projects for Cinco de Mayo.  In case you didn't know Cinco de Mayo is the celebration marking the defeat of the French Army by Mexican soldiers at the battle of Puebla in 1872.  I used to live in California and Cinco de Mayo was a fab celebration with piñatas, beer, Mexican wrestling, amazing food and foul tasting Mexican candies.  

Happythought's Cinco de Mayo party kit is an instant download containing party invites, cupcake wrappers and toppers, popcorn boxes, play figures and ornaments, a loteria game, garlands, party signs and lots more.   It's listed here and costs $5USD, which is only about £3.20. 


The kit also includes tutorials and templates for mini piñatas.


On the Happythought site there is more information about Cinco de Mayo, free printables (the Lucha Libre masks above are free to download), craft and video tutorials.

I bought Happythought's peacocks as a craft for Little Una Fox's birthday party and I can vouch for how easy the printables were to create.  Ellen & Harry at Happythoughts design beautifully clean and simple craft, party and decorative items that you can download and print yourself.  They also create beautiful silhouette prints of your children at a very reasonable price.  And I am only a little jealous that they are raising their children in the sunshine of Chile.  Go take a look at their site for more.

      It was such a lovely day! And while I love to take credit for a good party the crafts and decorations were all down to the clever people at Happythought.

    The masks are brilliant... Can't work out if they're are for superheroes or wrestlers but my boys love being both so these are perfect wherever their imaginations take them!

      They're Mexican wrestlers, Lucha Libre, although I'm not sure how clever it was to tell the boys that at the party - carnage! There was a lot of roaring and chasing each other around in the masks. It was so nice to do a craft that the boys were equally excited to join in.
