How to throw a colourful fiesta party

Set a festive tone with a wall of bright fringe. Pick up packages of different coloured tissue paper (a little goes a long way; we used pink, orange, light green and dark green). Cut each sheet into long 3-in. strips. Cut fringe three-quarters of the way up each strip. Start at the bottom of the wall and work your way up, affixing fringe with washi tape for painless removal. 

 

Tip: Make your fringe wall faster with a pair of fringe scissors—a worthy investment. They cut snipping time in half and are around $20 at most craft stores.
