Step 3: Don’t forget to cut space for the sweets to fit into and a few holes for the pipe cleaner loop to pass through at the top.

Step 4: Glue down a layer of tissue cut into simple shapes using a glue stick or hot glue.

Hot air balloons

Regular balloons can be transformed into little hot air balloons with a few simple techniques.

The result is adorable, and your kids will like it.

Fair enough, we enjoy it as well; thus, we’d be content with these decorations for our birthdays.

Requirements:

Cardstock in rainbow colors

• Ruler
• Scissors
• Twine
• 3m small wire hooks
• Glue Gun (low temp)
• White thread
• Balloons (in white)

Steps to making hot air balloon

Step 1: Using a knife and ruler, cut cardstock into 1 1/2 by 11-inch strips.

Hot glue a strip on top of the start, middle, and end of five horizontally arranged strips.

To ensure that the three support strips are flush with the height, trim the cardstock.

Step 2: Join the cardstock piece’s ends with hot glue to create a loop. Trim several 1″ by 2-1″ cardstock strips. To create a basket, weave the pieces together over and under one another.

Step 3: Determine the length of three pieces of twine and cut them.

Locate the middle of the strands, then hot glue them together to form an asterisk.

Wrap the strings around a 12″ balloon that has been inflated and knotted.

Step 4: Knot the thread around the twine’s middle. The middle of the twine should then be hot glued to the balloon’s top.

Allow the adhesive to cool totally.

Step 5: Install a 3-meter hook on the ceiling.

After that, secure the hook’s thread end. Six strands of twine should be evenly spaced out around the balloon, and the ends should be hot glued to the basket.

You’re almost done!

Use cardstock to create small bunting for the balloons by slicing it into long strands that are 1″ tall.

To create a lot of triangles that are 1″ wide, stack a few strips and cut them diagonally.

Leave some room between each triangle as you hot glue it to the string.

Step 6: Hot glue the bunting around the balloon’s vertical thread in a scalloped fashion.

Once you’ve finished trimming, you’re done!

Cherry Balloon Garland

You may want to build this cherry balloon party garland if you want to test out a charming summertime concept for your party.

Green paper, red balloons, and twine are all that is required.

All the directions are available right here.

Requirements

• Red or pink balloons
• A balloon inflator
• Twine
• Green card stock paper
• Tape or glue
• Scissors
• Pencil

Steps to make balloon Garland:

Step1: Here is a different way to use balloons if you have any leftovers. To make cherries, you’ll need a few red balloons. To blow them up, use the accompanying balloon inflator.

But be careful not to completely blow them up. Being slightly rounded, cherries might just work if you blow them up halfway. Fix the ends.

Step2: Cut a brief length of twine. It is around 18 inches long. Trim any extra string after tying each end to the balloon’s tip.

Step 3: Next, cut a long piece of string that will be the length of your finished garland. Using command strips or thumbtacks, attach them to the wall.

Step 4: Each double “cherry” balloon should be wrapped around the rope used to hang the garland. They ought to be balanced and not lean to one side.

Step 5: Then, on a piece of green cardstock paper, sketch a few leaves and cut them out. If you’d like to add some variation, give the leaves additional stem features. Attach the two leaves with glue. Use tape or hot glue to attach the leaves to the front of the garland.

Another choice is to fasten the leaf by punching a hole in the bottom of it, then tying it to the garland.
