Decoration Guide

* Use your balloon pump to inflate the balloons to various sizes (small, medium, large). Do not over-inflate them, as they will pop easily.

* Tie a knot at the end of each balloon securely.

* Take the Balloon Decorating Strip/Tape.

* Attach the balloons by gently pulling the knot through the large hole in the strip and sliding it into the small hole to lock it in place.

* Mix your colors (Blue, White, Silver) and sizes to create a dynamic look, following either a pattern or a random design, as seen in the image.

* Make sure the balloons are close together and facing different directions to achieve a full, organic arch look.

* Decide on the shape and placement for your arch (U-shape or draping/falling arch).

* Attach Command Hooks to the wall at the desired height and points.

* Carefully lift the balloon strip and attach both ends to the hooks.

* If necessary, use extra hooks or strong, wall-safe tape to secure the middle section of the arch so it stays in the desired shape.

* Look for any empty spaces or visible parts of the balloon strip.

* Use your smallest balloons (especially the white or silver ones) and Glue Dots to adhere them to the larger balloons, filling in the gaps. This makes the arch look much fuller and more professional.

* Center the "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" banner below the balloon arch and secure it to the wall with tape.

* Attach a string of blue, white, and silver tassels below the arch and near the table/shelf.

* Tie silver ribbons to a few balloons or tassels and let them dangle loosely.

* Stick the small silver star cutouts randomly around the balloon arch on the wall to add a celestial, festive sparkle.

* Place the blue and white flower bouquet in a small vase or container.

* Set the bouquet on the small shelf or table/stand placed directly below or to the side of the main decoration area.

Key Decorating Tips

*  Use a mixture of balloon sizes (5-inch, 10-inch, 12-inch, 18-inch) and alternate the colors constantly (Blue, White, Silver) for an appealing and rich design.

* You can inflate your balloons one day before the event. Store them in a cool, dark room away from heat and sharp objects to keep them looking fresh.

* Use high-quality latex balloons to ensure they don't pop easily and maintain their shine longer.

* Ensure your arch is firmly attached to the wall or a sturdy stand. Loose arches can droop or fall.

* The Glue Dots and smaller balloons are essential. They cover the tape and knots, giving your decoration a polished, professional look.
