18 FT Cinco De Mayo Party Decorations Banner with 9 Plastic Papel Picado Flags
Product description
What it is and what it’s for
This 18 FT Cinco De Mayo party banner is a ready-to-hang festive string made with plastic papel picado-style flags. It’s built to add that Mexican-themed party atmosphere for Cinco de Mayo—while also working for broader fiesta decor and Day of the Dead vibes. If you’re decorating a doorway, a wall run, or the area behind your food table, this kind of banner is an easy visual upgrade without needing a lot of setup.
The banner comes as one pack with a total length of 18 FT, including 9 individual plastic flag pieces. Most of it is designed to be hung directly, with only one orange banner piece that needs to be pasted using the included glue as shown in the pictures.
What you’ll notice in real use
The look is colorful and patterned, with 9 Mexican-themed designs that include cactus, guitar, sun, and flower motifs (and similar elements). Because it’s double sided, it’s meant to be displayed from different angles—so it doesn’t just look good from one direction. That matters if guests will be walking around the space or if you’re hanging it across a room where people approach from multiple sides.
In a quick, practical scenario: you can string it along a porch railing or the top edge of a party table backdrop, then place a few complementary decorations nearby. Since the material is described as plastic with waterproof properties, you don’t have to treat it like delicate paper that needs to stay strictly indoors—though “waterproof” doesn’t always mean “storm-proof,” so it’s still smart to be mindful of heavy rain.
Key points (the essentials)
This is a pre-assembled party banner pack designed for fast hanging and bright, themed décor. It’s made from plastic for durability and waterproof suitability, and it’s double sided so it holds up visually from more than one angle. You’ll also appreciate that the patterns are already laid out across multiple pieces, so the overall effect shows immediately rather than needing extra crafting.
The one catch: it’s not entirely “no-effort.” You’ll still need to paste the orange banner piece using the attached glue, so it’s closer to “mostly ready to hang” than fully assembled from start to finish.

Where it shines (and where it may not)
This banner makes the most sense when you want colorful Mexican fiesta décor that’s easy to install and meant to last more than traditional paper papel picado. If you’re decorating for Cinco de Mayo or a party with a Mexican theme, it can pull the whole space together quickly—especially outdoors or semi-outdoors where you might deal with occasional moisture.
That said, it may not be the best match if you’re specifically hunting for ultra-authentic, traditional tissue-paper papel picado. On paper-look authenticity, plastic won’t always feel the same as handmade paper. Also, while waterproof properties are mentioned, your conditions matter: if the space gets rough weather or constant exposure, you may want to plan for extra protection.
Should you buy it?
Buy it if you want a bright, Mexican-themed hanging banner for Cinco de Mayo (and related fiesta/Day of the Dead décor) that’s mostly pre-assembled, double sided, and made from plastic with durability and waterproof suitability. It’s a solid pick when you’re decorating a space where people will see the banner from multiple angles and you want visual impact without complex setup.
Skip it if you’re expecting fully assembled, zero-prep decoration—because the orange piece needs pasting with the included glue. You may also want to look elsewhere if authenticity of real tissue paper is your top priority, or if your setting involves heavy, sustained rain exposure where “waterproof” still may not be enough for your comfort.
