pinatas complete



so i finished six pinatas.  i ended up using a lot of double sided tape.  i ran out after 2 rolls.  one was just a scotch one and the other was one of those fancy roller looking things.  the last pinata i just used masking tape.  i hope the stuff doesnt all fall off.  for the shapes i went to the confetti system website and just took some ideas.  i used just metallic paper in gold, silver and copper.  if you look at the first one on their site, i kind of messed up and made it three sided instead of four.    also the one with pentagons was difficult just because i couldnt figure out how to draw a pentagon without a compass but i think you actually only need a circle and a ruler.  you dont really need a compass.
all in all im pretty happy about the pinatas.  i wasnt as happy with the tassle garland because i felt like it didnt look as professional as confetti systems.  but hey im just a playgiarist.  i also noticed that their tassles and pinatas all have very straight precise and accurate cuts  wheres mine as more random and lots of cuts that were not straight.  i kept on wondering how they cut theirs.
