✓ Garlands will take 1-2 hours to complete. Inflating balloons is what takes the longest! Assembly of the arch is fast and easy once the balloons are ready

✓ You can definitely assemble your garland in advance! During this time keep it indoors and in a temperature-controlled location until you are ready to set up for your party. On rare occasions, excessive heat in direct sunlight can pop dark balloons and cold/damp areas may wilt some balloons. This is not common, however, environment can affect the overall life of balloons.

✓ DON'T OVER FILL BALLOONS! Press balloons into your hip and let some air out before tying to make it more round in shape.

✓ Use caution when tying and tightening the balloon knot – if you pull the knot super tight, you could tear the balloon which results in leaks.

✓ Hang garland BEFORE adding 5" mini balloons

✓ Use 3M command hooks or Clik-Clik Magnets for hanging your arch! Because the balloons are super lightweight you can tie them to just about anything! Just be careful with textured walls and dry grass/twigs because these can pop your balloons.

✓ Want to know the secret to SUPER matte balloons? Sunlight! Outdoor sun will oxidize the latex and make the finish on your inflated balloons become super matte. Check out this video to see a sample!

This video will walk you through how to assemble our Deluxe Garland. Use the pattern below for inserting balloons!

✓ Inflate Balloons

✓ Begin attaching balloons at one end of the plastic garland strip. Do not insert past the balloon knot or latex may pop.

✓ After hanging, use glue dots to attach 5" balloons to fill in gaps. To help speed up this process you can tie 5" into clusters of 3.
