Table Decorating Ideas for a Fiesta
- String red chili pepper-shaped lights around the edge of the table using small clips. The mini lights will cast a warm glow across the dinner table while adding a whimsical fiesta flair.
- Add an authentic touch to your fiesta table by setting out potted chili and mini cactus plants. Use terracotta pots for a rustic Mexican look. The red chilies will add a bright pop of color to your party table.
- Use an authentic Mexican blanket on the party table in place of a traditional tablecloth. The blanket's vibrant colors will set a lively mood. Roll up bright red, orange and yellow cotton napkins and place them in napkin rings featuring sombrero, cactus and margarita glass designs.
- Set natural wood or brightly colored plastic maracas by each dinner setting. Guests can make music throughout the meal, and then take the maracas home as party favors. String vibrant plastic fiesta beads around chairs to creative a festive atmosphere--and send them home with your guests, too.
