Snowman pinata



This years snowman piñata. He's not quite finished yet but he'll probably have to do as is till next year as the orders are racking up and we have a party to organise for our youngest child. We're also hoping to get some more pics with a blue sky in the background before the snow melts! Here's a good preview anyway!

Make your own christmas pinata - no skill required!

Making your own Christmas present piñata is easy, cheap and a fun way to keep children of all ages busy this Christmas.

 All you need is;
# A cardboard box - I get a lot of packaging so I had a few saved up but you can generally get them for free at your local corner shop or buy them fairly cheaply online.
# Some stuffing - Suitable for the kids in question. This is for a family of boys, the eldest of which is 15 and the youngest 3, the stuffing also needed to be halal so I spent a while reading labels. Never knew there were so many ingredients in swizzles sweets. You can spend as much or as little as you like - from a few wrapped sweets from the local market to a whole host of flash goodies.
# Wrapping paper - you can even cut out and stick on pictures from old magazines or get your children to have fun decorating it themselves. You can even make them fluffy like a traditional piñata. 
# String or ribbon
Instructions
1) Fill the box with your stuffing
2) wrap it or decorate it
3) Add ribbon

Couldn't be simpler than that! I'm busy working and dealing with porley children this Christmas so I haven't had time to make the usual flash Christmas pinata's for the children I buy presents for so this was a quick and easy solution I thought I'd share.

Christmas orders.

We've been really busy with Christmas orders again this year. The ever popular Christmas pudding piñata's being outranked by little monsters. Which was quite surprising. We'll add new photo's when we've finally caught up with everything and dealt with the giant balls and assorted body parts!

Christmas again!



The little monsters have been even more popular than our fabulous Christmas puddings this year. Our house is covered in random assorted body parts which seems a bit more fitting for Halloween than Christmas!

Will add some pictures when I've more time! If you're interested in placing an order or getting a quote you can contact us at pinatalady@gmail.com

Modern Santa piñata

Here's a more traditional and more modern Santa made from balloons. They make fantastic decorations in the run up to Christmas and are a fantastic way of entertaining the kids and working off those seasonal frustrations!

They're mostly made from balloons and old newspaper.

Lets build a snowman!

 This snow lady is about a meter high and her nose is about 6" long - just to give you an idea of the dimensions. She's got a happy face, a happy smile and a happy point of view. I'm in the process of building her a little friend...

Christmas piñatas


The hat and scarf on this snowman we've just stuck on to see what they looked like.

They're a fantastic decoration that can be smashed up at the office Christmas party.

There are quite a few other examples on here in different styles and sizes.

Martini glass pinata

This is a Martini glass piñata. Its made mostly from newspaper, other than its cardboard base. We’ll put up another picture when it’s completed.

We've played around with the pieces to make a hat or a lamp. We wish we had more time to play with this one but its due to be delivered on Friday.
