If you’re in Baltimore and love magical festive windows decorated for the holiday season, the Harbor East Window Wonderland is full of beauty and wonderment. Stop by Taco Fiesta to see Diana Marta’s Whimsical Window Birds!

Ambassadors of festivity, “Whimsical Window Birds,” are happily perched in hula hoops, peering out the windows into the patrons of Taco Fiesta. Fabricated with bright colors and glittering decorative materials, they create the magic of the holidays.”

“We are thrilled to have Diana’s beautiful, vibrantly colored birds grace our window at Taco Fiesta during the holiday season,” says Jerry Gutierrez, Taco Fiesta’s owner. “We’re very thankful to Diana and congratulate her on winning Kid’s Choice!

According to Cool Progeny, “Taco Fiesta’s Window with the Whimsical Window Birds won the Kid’s Choice as voted by attendees at Harbor East’s Milk + Cookies social. The holiday art extravaganza features 13 unique holiday windows designed by some of Baltimore’s most talented local artists” and is up through New Year’s Day!
