Taco Bar Party Ideas

Since today is Cinco de Mayo we decided to do a Taco Bar Party last night with some friends of ours. We had such a wonderful time and I really enjoyed setting up everything. Plus clean up was a breeze because of these Wet-Nap Antibacterial Hand Wipes.

Taco Bar

Here is the taco bar with everything set up. I got the food table tents and banner from A-Manda Creation.

For the toppings I had Mexican rice, black beans, shredded lettuce, guacamole, salsa, shredded cheese, tomatoes, sour cream, spicy ranch and queso.For meat you could pick from shredded chicken, ground beef and fish. My favorite was fish. Yumm!

Taco Bar

Once we got done eating Kimberly and I wiped up some spills and put away all the leftover food. I have to say I really love the smell of the Wet-Nap hand wipes. It isn’t too over powering but it smells clean.

The queso was really dried up, but the Wet-Nap wipes had no problem cleaning it off the table.

After dinner my friend Kimberly brought cookies, icing and sprinkles for the kids to decorate. They had been outside playing with frogs before they came in to decorate. Therefore I was grateful to have the Wet-Nap hand wipes since they kill 99.9% of bacteria. I don’t think he always does a thorough job when washing his hands. Having said that I wiped down his hands before he started touching his cookie.

Dustyn had to put a little of each of the sprinkles on his cookie. While decorating and eating Dustyn made quite a mess, like usual. I handed him a Wet-Nap, and he was able to clean his face and hands. Plus he cleaned the icing off the table afterwards. Win-win!

Unfortunately Carsyn missed out on the cookies. He was really tired and already in bed, but Kimberly left him a cookie for tomorrow.

Most Original Mess Contest

Does your child make a huge mess? Make sure to enter the Most Original Mess Contest that Wet-Nap is hosting. You could win a $1,000 Walmart Gift Card!

I submitted one of my favorite messy photos of Dustyn. Sure with I had Wet-Nap wipes back then!

I picked my Wet-Nap hand wipes up at Walmart with the coupon to get the lowest price. I will be using this next weekend at Carsyn’s Birthday Party, because I am sure there will be plenty of messes there.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
