While nothing screams PARTY like balloons, they can be a little bit predictable, if not just very “Plain Jane”. But wait, before giving up on these inflated pieces of festivity, check out 9 ways of how you can make them look fresh and chic at your upcoming event!

Bubble Balloon Strands
At your next underwater-themed party, surprise your guests with balloon strands. To make a strand (a vertical line of balloons), begin with smaller balloons at the bottom and work up to the larger ones at the top. For a more dramatic display, you can use our white LED balloons along with the transparent ones or just adopt the idea using our string lights.

Tulle Balloons
Planning a wedding or bridal shower? Not just you, the bride-to-be, but also your balloons deserve to be showered with thousands of “wows” and compliments! For example, meliseamour wraps her balloons with one layer of tulle (lace will also do), adds mini flowers, and tops everything off with a satin ribbon. In our opinion, this easy setup will look even more captivating with our LED balloons and paper lanterns.
Floating Balloons
Another good idea is to float our LED balloons in the pool for a whimsical night display. Alternatively, you can use ordinary balloons with our waterproof rain lights inside.
Balloon Bottles
Little secret, you actually can decorate with balloons without inflating them. How about giving your old bottles, vases, and glasses a facelift? Just dress them up with any balloon of your choice! A hint: our old-school milk bottles are great to bring that idea to life!

Confetti Balloons 2.0
You’ve probably seen a lot of transparent balloons with confetti inside. They look great, but you can go further by filling them with greenery (look no further than our faux ferns!) for a contemporary twist.
Hot Air Balloon Centerpieces
Though balloons are often used as an additional accessory or an of element of a backdrop, you can think out of the box and decorate your reception table with tiny replicas of hot air balloons, which can be perfect for your travel-oriented theme. For this project, you’ll need balloons, small baskets, glass stones (marbles), tiny flowers, glue, matching ribbons, and this easy guide.
Gold Painted Balloons
Have a metallics theme or looking to make your venue super-chic? Just purchase a bunch of white balloons, paint them partially (the lower half) with gold paint, and spruce them up with our adorable gold tassels!

Upside Down Ceiling |

Absolute Precision turns everything we know about balloons upside down (literally) – these guys suggest covering the ceiling with balloons hovering upside down. To achieve this surrealistic effect, all you need is to stock up on huge (HUGE!) bunch of latex balloons and put a marble or penny inside each of them before inflating with helium. To achieve the same trick, you can also use ordinary blown up balloons and hang them upside down.
Rustic Backdrop
Though balloons seem to have nothing to do with a rustic theme, this stunning floral balloon backdrop busts this unfair stereotype. To bring this fabulous idea to life, you’ll need a balloon air pump, chicken mesh, flowers, glue, and balloons of different colors and sizes. Then, cut the netting into any desired shape, cover it with balloons (place them as close to each other as possible), and nestle the flowers into gaps.
Balloons, anyone?
