Plastic Papel Picado Banner Set (2 Pack) – 30ft Mexican Party Décor for Día de Muertos, Cinco de Mayo, Birthdays
This plastic papel picado banner set from TexMex Fun Stuff gives you two banners, each with ten colorful flags, for a combined length of about 30 feet. Each flag measures 13 by 9 inches, making it a versatile decoration for walls, ceilings, ofrendas, or backdrops at Día de los Muertos celebrations, Cinco de Mayo parties, or birthday fiestas. The lightweight, foldable, double-sided design is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
How Long Is This Banner Set?
You get two banners, each roughly 15 feet long with 10 flags. Unfolded end to end, they span approximately 30 feet—enough to cover a large wall, wrap around a room, or drape across a patio. Each individual flag is about 13 inches tall and 9 inches wide, offering a generous surface area for the intricate die-cut patterns.
What Materials Are Used?
The banners are made from China paper, a lightweight tissue-like material. Despite its delicate look, the plastic coating makes the flags more durable than traditional tissue paper. They are double-sided, so the pattern is visible from both sides, and they fold flat for easy storage between uses.
Can I Use These Banners Outdoors?
Yes, the plastic construction holds up well in light wind and mild weather. For outdoor parties, hang them in a sheltered spot or secure them at multiple points. They are not waterproof, so avoid direct rain. The double-sided print works great for open-air settings where both sides are visible.
