Care Instructions

• Display Indoors: Keep your piñata indoors and out of direct sunlight to prevent fading and warping.
• Dust Gently: Use a soft, dry cloth or feather duster to remove dust once a week.
• Avoid Moisture: Keep away from humidity, rain, and spills—tissue paper and cardboard may warp if exposed to moisture.
• Keep Shape: Store in a cool, dry place. Wrap lightly in newspaper or place in a paper bag to protect the tissue texture and color.
• Rebuild if Broken: If you choose to break your piñata, you can reassemble the cardboard with craft glue as a keepsake or divide the pieces into party favors.
• Handle With Care: Piñata edges are handcrafted; handle gently to avoid crushing or bending the structure.
• Long-Term Storage: Keep away from heavy items, heat sources, and pets to maintain shape and prevent dents.
