Decorating with Balloons

Balloons have been used since the 1800s for parties and celebrations – and why do they never go out of style?!?!  Because you can do so much with them!  Now days, they come in all shapes, sizes, colors and you can even double up by putting a balloon in a balloon. We love to get creative with something so ordinary and use something that’s been around for ages to create something brand new. Take a look at these “outside of the box” ideas for decorating with balloons!

Turn your balloon into an ice cream cone! Check out this tutorial from Pretty Prudent.

Dazzle your guests by dressing up your balloons with metallic confetti. We love these DIY Confetti Dipped Balloons from Studio DIY. We also love the color combination.

For a baby girl shower or birthday party, or even for a garden themed bridal shower, we love these flower balloons. Here is a simple tutorial from All Things Simple.

Having a party this Fall or perhaps a Halloween themed party? These pumpkin balloons are simple, easy and cheap – oh, and they also look great too!

Perhaps you want to have more of a jack-o-lantern appeal verses pumpkins, try adding faces to your balloons. You can use a marker or stickers.

After the party is over, if you have left over balloons or maybe just don’t want to waste the material after the balloons are deflated, try making one of these simple balloon wreaths. You can use it for all your birthday parties to come and placing it on your door for your child’s birthday can become a tradition!
