PAPEL
PICADO
Papel picado literally means
“perforated paper,” and refers to
the lacy, elaborate pierced tissue
decorations popular during the
holiday. Papel picado are created from
layers of colorful tissue (or sometimes
even plastic), and feature many Day
of the Dead themes. The delicately
decorated tissue paper represents
wind and the fragility of life.
