Balloons are one of the first items that come to mind when thinking of decorations for a birthday party. Create memorable balloon decorations by arranging them in unusual shapes or adding embellishments that fit with the party's theme and other decorations. Does this Spark an idea?
Animal Balloons
At an animal-themed birthday party, create faces on the balloons to make them look like animals. For example, make pig balloons by taping a pink circle of tissue paper with nostrils drawn on it to a pink balloon. Add ears cut from vellum paper so they will stand up, and draw eyes onto the balloon with black marker.
Balloon Arch
Create a grand entrance to a birthday party by making an arch of helium-filled balloons. Inflate balloons and tie them along a nylon cord about eight inches apart. When the cord has about 18 feet covered with balloons, tie a sand-filled balloon to each end and set up the arch in the desired location.
Glitter Balloons
Add some sparkle to the birthday party decorations by pouring a tablespoon of glitter into a clear balloon with a funnel before inflating it. Use a helium or air pump to inflate the balloons to avoid inhaling the glitter.
