Gold blue balloons garland

I was a bit intimidated by the idea of making a balloon arch, but this kit make it SO easy! It only took me about a half hour with a balloon pump to do by myself! It looked so high-end and I was thrilled with how it came together and held up. The balloons lasted weeks after being blown up and not one of them ever popped out of place, even after transporting them in the car. The price was right, and the product was great! I highly recommend this, anyone can do it quickly with a balloon pump and it looks great!

First- there were no directionsSecond- it wasn't that hard to figure out how to make a garland because the base of the arch, the "balloon chain" is brilliant. It's about an inch wide, plastic, and many yards long. It has keyhole cutouts every few inches; you slip the end of the balloon in the larger circle and slide it up into the narrow part, locking it in place.Once you have the length you want, you put it in place and use the enclosed double-sided glue dots to add more balloons wherever you want more or there is a hole to fill up.In the photos online I wasn't that impressed with the confetti balloons, thinking they were a waste of plastic but man were they fun to blow up and when they popped, the rain of gold was perfection. The gold balloons are also pretty. I will say that these are cheap balloons, the neck is short so tying them is hard but we didn't lose very many to accidental popping. The balloons looked good for 4-5 days before they started to look lame.I think the seller photos have added balloons so purchase extra if you want yours really full. We used almost all of the included balloons and you can see it isn't as full as the photos and we don't have a flair at the bottom. I did purchase extra balloons in the same colorway but we decided the arch wasn't going touch the floor since our cat would surely pop the balloons.Definitely a great purchase. I did purchase a balloon inflator that worked great on this project and I highly recommend it. This is a great alternative to helium balloons since you can blow it up a day or so ahead of time and not worry about them failing like you would with helium. I saw a tutorial for a balloon arch a few years ago, before you could buy them so readily, and it was a lot of work to get one looking good. The balloon chain is a revelation

This balloon arch was exactly what we wanted! It was easy to put together and looked fantastic. Great addition to our event decor.

I have mixed feelings about this balloon set.Pros:Pretty good price for amountThickness of balloons was goodWhite was nice & opaque. Not sheer.Cons:A few balloons had weird discoloration lines on them, as seen to the right of the white lines on the picture.The balloon garland tape that came with the set was terrible. I think the edges were too sharp or something. My balloons kept popping. I switched to another (that I had bought separately) and had no problems.Overall, I'd buy it again, the quantity for the price, if it was for a family party or something. If I was a professional, or hosting a formal event, I might reconsider.

This was sooo easy to assemble and it came out beautiful, colors are exact to picture navy blue, white and gold

The balloon quality was pretty good and colors came out great

Love the colors. Good quality

The idea is great. The outcome, not so much. If you plan ahead and figure out how to hang this, it could work out well. We had a couple balloons pop, but there are PLENTY. I would definitely find something to hang this on to. Keep in mind, they are balloons, so they won't just lay flat. 😂 They are pretty balloons. We ended up just draping them over a tv.
