Cinco de Mayo Celebration!

Cinco de Mayo (fifth of May) is right around the corner. Celebrate Cinco de Mayo this year with a bit of Mardi Gras sparkle by adding beads, costumes and red hot lights to your party!

Cinco de Mayo celebrates the day Mexican forces overcame the French army. Even though it is not the true Independence day for Mexico (September 16th), Cinco de Mayo is widely celebrated in Mexico and here in the United States by people regardless of their nationality. This day has become a holiday to celebrate Mexican culture and the wonderful food and beverages it encompasses! Restaurants and homes will be filled with margaritas and scents of simmering Mexican dishes for Cinco de Mayo. Mix up a batch of your favorite margaritas, on the rocks or frozen, and invite some friends over to celebrate.

MardiGrasOutlet.com offers lots of fun styles of Fiesta inspired Mardi Gras beads. Beaded necklaces with Cinco de Mayo medallions, metallic chili peppers, bobbling cactus and even fat tequila worms are some of the fun Mardi Gras style beads available. Hand out these fun Margarita glass beads to all your guest to get everyone in a festive mood.

Want to really get in the spirit of Cinco de Mayo? Dress up in a brightly colored Cha Cha girl costume. This is sure to be a crowd pleaser!

And no party would be complete with out twinkling chili pepper lights. Wrap porch columns, door frame or an arbor with these fun red pepper lights.  Another option is to run them down the center of your buffet food table. Layer sparkly metallic chili pepper beads on top and the table with really sparkle.

Celebrate Cinco de Mayo your way and enjoy the day!
