New Year’s Fun: Confettisystem’s Pinatas And Urban Outfitters Collab

Leonora EpsteinDecember 18, 2009 //

They say New Year’s Eve is always a letdown, so why not let your guests take out their frustration at the party? Check out Confettisystem’s sparkly pinatas, which double as decorations and party activities.

Unfortunately, we came too late to snatch up one of the $28 pinatas — they just sold out online — but there might still be a few at your local Urban branch. Don’t forget the blindfold!
