How to Choose the Right Ones
When it comes to balloon decoration, it is important to choose the right ones. Here are some easy tips to help you get started.
Choose your balloons in person before making a purchase. Balloons vary in size and shape, so it is important to test them out before committing to a purchase.
When choosing colors for your balloon decorations, think about the theme of your event. Some popular themes for weddings include rust and navy blue, fall colors like pumpkin and apple, and summertime favorites like bright yellow and lemonade.
Be creative with your balloon decorating ideas! Try out different techniques such as attaching ribbons or stickers to the balloons. Or create a more complex design by grouping several different types of balloons together.
Store your balloons properly after use. Inflate them with helium and seal the ends as you would for storing helium tanks. Keep your balloons in a cool, dry place until you are ready to use them again. You can also store them in a bag or box.
Use balloons to create some fun and unique party favors, such as personalized party hats, cups, and plates. For example, you could turn a balloon into a cup by folding it in half, then tying a ribbon around the middle.
Use balloons as decorations for your party table. You can attach ribbon or tape to the bottom of each balloon so that they are easy to pick up and move around.
How to Make Balloon Decorations
Making balloon decorations is a fun and easy way to add a festive touch to any event. Here are some basic steps.
Choose your balloons. You can use any type of balloon, but large, colorful ones will look the best.
Cut the balloons to desired lengths with sharp scissors or a sharp knife. Be sure to leave enough length so that you can tie a knot at the end of the balloon string.
Tie one end of the balloon string around a post or pillar and make sure it’s tight. Then tie the other end of the string around your fingers in a knot (or use a ribbon if you have one).
Hold the balloon up so that it’s facing away from you and gently twist it until both ends of the string are tied in a knot. If you are using a ribbon, tie it around the balloon.
When you’re done twisting and tying, hold the string in one hand and grab the knot with the other.
Snap the balloon back and forth until it pops. If it doesn’t pop right away, let go of the knot and repeat steps 3-5 until you do snap it. Repeat this step to pop all the balloons!
Balloon Decoration Ideas for Kids
Balloon decorations are always a hit with kids. Here are some simple, but adorable, balloon decoration ideas for kids. You can also use them for decorating the outside of the house or even a party.
Make sure that if you are decorating on a porch or balcony, you keep an eye on your kids while they are playing with the balloons and make sure they don’t get too close to the edge.
For a more creative balloon decoration, make a balloon arch using two large balloons tied at either end with a string. Add a bit of ribbon and you have a balloon arch that is perfect for hanging from the ceiling.
Make a balloon bow using three or four balloons tied together with a ribbon. Add some colorful confetti and you will have an adorable and fun decoration for your party!
Have a Balloon Fight Party games are always fun and can be played with balloons, too. For a balloon fight, get two teams of three or four people each. Tell each team to choose a color and then play with balloons in that color.
Balloons can be purchased in any color at a party store. A balloon fight is always fun and everyone will enjoy watching your kids try to knock over the balloons that are being flown by their opponents.
