Description
 
It's a traditional Mexican Party Streamer! Papel Picado is a traditional art handmade by artisans from Mexico. The brightly colored tissue (or in this case, booo-ti-ful black!) is handcut, using chisels and a top pattern as a guide. Although Papel de China (tissue paper) was originally brought to Europe from China and then to "New Spain" (Nuevo Espana), the indigenous people of Mexico had already been using hand made paper *(amatl), along with the tradition of cut decorative and ceremonial images, for centuries.

Today, papel picado is used as a decoration for all occasions; Weddings, Christmas, Easter or for altars during Day of the Dead. These party decorations give an immediate festive mood to any occasion. Simply open package, stretch the ends and tie wherever you wish to hang them. 18 dangling skeleton designs are in each set.


Country of Origin: Mexico
Dimensions: 10 ft. long!
