Party Decorations FAQ

How do I hang party decorations (without damaging my walls)?

Hanging decorations like streamers, bunting or lanterns from ceilings and walls adds instant visual impact to any space. Most party decorations are made from lightweight paper or plastic, making them easy to suspend from high up. Thumbtacks are a great option for pinning them in place, but if you're worried about damaging your plaster, opt for blu tack or stick-on hooks that can be easily removed after the event. If your event is outdoors in a pergola or on a patio, consider looping your decorations around wooden beams or railings.

What is bunting?

Bunting refers to any hanging festive decoration and is a popular decoration choice at parties and weddings. Featuring small triangular flags along a length of tape or string, bunting has become synonymous with celebrations and get-togethers. At Spotlight, you can find buntings and garlands in a range of colours and event themes including Frozen, Spiderman, Harry Potter and more!

How to make confetti cones

Confetti cones are a popular choice at weddings, and are a decorative way to present confetti to your guests for the all-important confetti throw. To make your own, all you need is some printed paper, craft scissors and craft glue such as a glue stick. Follow these simple steps to create elegant confetti cones:

1. Cut your paper into squares - 15 cm x 15 cm is a great size to work with.
2. Working with the decorative side of the paper face down, gently fold or roll one side of the paper over to the adjacent side to create a pointed cone shape.
3. Open the paper back out and glue along one side. Roll back into the cone shape and stick down firmly with around 1 cm overlap.
4. Decorate the cone with a sticker or any of Spotlight's ribbons & bows.
5. Display the cones in a small wooden crate or basket and add confetti for guests to help themselves.
