If you’re going to be enjoying a summer picnic, hen night or birthday soon, we’ve got a fun DIY project for you to breathe new life into balloons. Floaters with climbers and flowers!
Upgrade helium balloons with climbers and flowers
Balloons are guaranteed to provide a fun factor. Try updating the ‘normal’ helium balloon with a string made of ivy and flowers. It gives a romantic, cheerful effect which lends that little something extra to your party decorations!
How to make it
1
Buy one or more balloons. Preferably a larger size, so that it is not dragged down by the weight of the plant string.
2
Select sisal string or fishing line as the basis. Don’t forget to secure the balloon or hang a weight from the bottom so that it doesn’t float away.
3
Select your choice of climbing plant, e.g. Hedera, and wrap it around the string.
4
Add a couple of your favourite flowers to provide the finishing touch.
