Your piñata doesn’t just have to be fun - it should look incredible too.
Before the first swing, your piñata is part of the party decor. Whether you’ve chosen a classic donkey, a themed shape, or a modern take, it should match your styling just like any other centrepiece.
If you’re shopping for one now, check out our full range of piñatas here – but don’t stop at just picking a design. Here’s how to make it feel like it belongs at your party.
Choose a Piñata That Suits the Theme
The first styling win happens when your piñata fits your party’s vibe. For kids’ birthdays, bright character designs work well. For baby showers, look for softer colours and gentle shapes. For brand events or milestone birthdays, think metallics, textures, or oversized shapes for impact.
Match your piñata to your partyware by colour and theme — that alone can make it feel polished, not just playful.
Style the Space Around It
- Frame it with a balloon garland in matching colours
- Place it over a textured rug or backdrop for depth
- Add confetti or streamers nearby to complete the look
- Use a coordinating treat table or display stand under it (bonus: doubles as photo backdrop)
Not sure where to start? Browse our decorations collection for paper fans, honeycombs, tassels and more to help tie the look together.
Use It as a Photo Moment (Before the Smash)
For that reason, it’s smart to:
- Position the piñata somewhere accessible and open
- Keep a camera or phone ready early
- Style props or signage nearby to enhance the shot
Add Your Own Touch
Ribbon or tassels that match your theme
A hanging string or base support that blends with other party items
Table-level filler like wrapped lollies or confetti to dress the ground beneath it
Final Prep: Fill It Smart, Not Just Full
- Wrapped lollies in theme colours
- Mini toys or trinkets for kids
- Brand confetti or metallic fillers for grown-up events
