Balloons make the best Birthday Blowout  

Balloons are the simplest decorating item and the most flamboyant. The myriad shapes, colors and sizes make them so versatile they can enhance all birthday party ideas. If the birthday party has a theme, they will fit right in. Inflate them with helium and they will stand on their own. Whether used sparingly as accent pieces or by the hundreds, they catch the eye and make any birthday party festive. An added attraction for children is the moment when they can be popped. This is just another dimension to the amazing power of balloons.

Balloon arches are the décor du jour for birthday parties and other occasions. Colors match the time of year—orange for autumn, red and green for winter and red, white and blue for summer. Arches can be simple entryways or they can cover whole pathways giving a mysterious entrance leading to the marvelous venue of the party. White balloon columns add a classical touch to any venue.

Stuffing them with prizes, name tags, candy or another balloon gives them added value. They make especially fun gifts for party attendees when they pop them to find their prize. There is a special balloon stuffing machine to make the trick easy. Stuff each helium filled balloon with sparkling confetti then pop it. This will shower the party with the dazzling deluge and convince everyone that the balloons are the best invited guest.

A helium filled balloon can be tied around the party room in many places as sign posts. With names written on them, they can be tied on the backs of the chairs around the table. Several can be tied to the guest of honor’s chair. They can be tied in an area to show where gifts should be placed or where different games will be played.

For extra dazzle tie each balloon over a small white light to give a magical atmosphere to the party room. Check to make sure the lights are not getting too hot or the first burst balloon may start a free-for-all.

Today, they can be so artfully displayed that they take the place of flower arrangements for a fraction of the cost. There are hundreds of birthday party ideas that use them in creative, attractive and even elegant ways. There is something about a balloon that brings out the mirth in people. As a main decorative item at a birthday party they almost guarantee a great time will be had by all.
