Perforated Paper, Yes Please
Well really Papel Picado...which literally means "perforated paper". Papel picado is a Mexican folk art of cutting paper into elaborate designs commonly used at celebrations and events. And while I am sure most of you lovelies have seen papel picado, I can't help post the picture below as it is papel picado perfection to me.
You see...papel picado is usually made from brightly colored paper...however, I am LOVING the neutral color of this one. By far this is my favorite one to date! I also love how the papel picado fits perfectly not only with the venue of this wedding, but the decor as well. Here have a closer look at the tables...
See perfectly, no? ~~~SQUEAL~~~ Yep, that's me excited! Excited about how much I love the papel picado, how fabulous this table decor is, and to again be able to show that a neutral color palette for a wedding can be oh so gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteOhh I love it in neutral tones too! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteOoh, so fun! These are a truly fresh spin and totally unique!
ReplyDeleteI never thought that papers can be this elegant. It's a very serene idea to create such a reception like this. I remembered my first participation in weddings. Reception area is always the topic after the wedding ceremony.
ReplyDeleteReally? Kraft papel picados?? It doesn't get much better than that... I actually love this more than the brights but then I'm the neutral queen!! And papel picado sounds so much better than perforated paper!!
