Election Night Parties
Those Gen X moustached fellas and Farrah-flicked sheilas of Don's Party knew how to do it. Hard liquor, sleaze, and disillusionment were the core ingredients of an awesome election night party.

Confetti System
Mylar-fringed pinatas in geometrically pleasing shapes, shaggy tissue paper garlands that sway like the woods - these are the festive accoutrements that make a party magical.
New York-based art collective Confetti System make such things, and many more celebratory appendages, from a building in Manhattan that also houses graphic designer Alex Lin and New York's leading (only) veterinary dermatologist.
