subject: Festive Balloons Will Lift Up The Definitive Balloon Celebration [print this page] Balloons are one of the most common party supplies and decorative elements to nearly every type of party. Why not throw a party that consist of nothing but balloons of all shapes and sizes? This is a simple, yet very fun theme to put together for parties on a budget.
Balloon Theme: What type of balloon theme will the party be? If the party is for a birthday, include selected theme colors that the celebrant will like. For example, for a young girl select plenty of pinks, violets, reds, light blues, and white balloons.
For a young boy, select darker colors such as black, blues, greens, etc. One theme that is a fun theme regardless of the celebrant is a young boy or girl is a On Cloud 9 birthday party theme. This theme needs plenty of balloons, light blue, white, and clear. Use posters of clouds and other beauty scenic shots of the sky with mountains, palms trees, etc. Posters of hot air balloons is also a great way to emphasize the birthday party theme.
Fill some with helium so the balloons float to the ceiling and fill others with regular air. Place small blue balloons in larger clear ones or white ones in clear blue balloons etc. The party guests should feel as if they are in the air on Cloud 9. As a cool bonus, rent a fog machine to make it feel as if the party guests are walking on clouds.
Balloon Banner: Easy way to decorate any theme balloon party is by stringing balloons in a balloon banner around the party area. To do this, simply blow up the desired number of balloons for the banner. Take a needle and thread, thread the needle, and poke the needle through the tail of the balloons (4-5 balloons at once) and gather balloons on the string. Once the groups of balloons are made, place a string through the middle of the balloons and gather the rest of the group on the string as needed.
When you are done you will have a party area that is brimming with high-flying balloons. Balloon Invitations Create balloon invitations by cutting out balloon shapes from card stock paper. Tape strings to the tails of the balloons with small ribbons tied around the strings, on the balloon, write down all the needed party information.
