Balloon Bouquets are an easy & inexpensive way to decorate a room for a party. They make great table centerpieces & corner decorations. You can tie one to your mailbox or place one on your front porch to indicate the party location. Bouquets also make a great gift for a birthday or for a sick friend in the hospital.

Balloon bouquets are easy to create. First you need to rent or buy a small helium tank to fill the balloons. Some local party stores fill balloons with helium for a small fee. After the balloons are filled with helium you need to tie a ribbon to the tail of each balloon. Gather the ribbons of the balloons in a bunch and hold them with one hand. Adjust the levels of the balloons with your other hand to create an attractive arrangement. There should be a variety of levels to create the most interest. Cut the ends of the ribbons so that they are all even at the bottom then tie the ribbons to a balloon weight.

Balloon bouquets come with coordinating designs & colors that offer a planned, put-together look that your guests will think was done by a professional.

Helium balloons are a fun and inexpensive way to decorate for many occasions, but we all want to do our part in keeping the environment green and safe. By following a few simple rules we can enjoy balloons and still be friendly to the environment. Always remember to attach the proper size weight to your helium-filled balloon so that it doesn't float away. Balloon clusters should be properly anchored by tying all ribbons to a weight individually. Never tie ribbons together before attaching to the weight. If the balloons accidently become loose from the weight they will float away individually and have a smaller chance at getting tangled in power lines.

Children can be drawn to brightly colored balloons, but for child safety reasons balloons are not intended for children under 3 years old. Un-inflated and broken balloons can be a choking hazard and ribbons can pose a possible entanglement or strangulation injury to a child. So be sure to discard all balloon pieces and ribbon from a broken balloon at once.

You should never release helium-filled foil balloons into the air. Metal foil balloons and metallic ribbon conduct electricity and could become entangled in power lines and cause damage to the lines or cause power outages. Latex balloons are a 100% natural product of rubber tree sap and therefore are the only type of balloon that can be used in a balloon launch. Latex naturally breaks down when exposed to the elements at about the same rate an oak leaf breaks down. On a release a balloon will float up to about 5 miles, it then becomes brittle and shatters into tiny pieces scattering over a wide area. Make sure that every latex balloon is properly inflated so that it reaches the height at which shattering occurs. The latex balloons should be hand tied and released without string or if you wish to attach string you should use a short bio-degradable cotton string; NEVER metallic or plastic ribbon. Don't forget to check your local and state regulations before organizing a balloon launch.
