If you love parties as much as we do, and are always on the lookout for party trends, you would definitely have come across the most popular trend in party decor – jumbo balloons! Huge balloons are decorated with paper tassels or confetti, or they come in foiled letter and number shapes. Fill them with helium, (we now have disposable helium canisters available for home use)  and suddenly you find yourself not sure how to keep these giant decorations in place. Party Camel is here to help!

We are absolutely in love with all the creative ways to keep your giant balloons anchored. You can be rest assured you will be bang on trend, with these easy tutorials, and the weights will keep your decorative balloons from floating away. Experiment with different balloon weights in a fun way to add impact with your next party. Over-sized number balloons are a great way of making a statement - they are shiny, quirky and certainly add the "WOW" factor. Don’t hide them in a corner, use gold / silver spray painted animals (depending on the colour of your foil balloon) to anchor them down. Animal balloon weights are a sure way to raise a smile at your special occasion! We love the colourful horses tied to colourful balloons above - great for a pony party or just something magical.

Balloon in a box! Now this is a great way to surprise and delight anyone. Have your gift delivered in a box and tie a floating balloon to a wrapped gift. Once the lucky birthday girl or boy opens the box the balloon will float to the top. You can even use a marker to write a special message on the balloon! Below are two DIY’s if you would like to spend a little extra time on creating a balloon weight. On the left is a great DIY balloon weight. You can tie more than one balloon to this weight and make the balloons the centrepiece of your party. For the full tutorial, click here. 

Are you in charge for the next Baby Shower in town? We are totally smitten with the marble balloons and marbled baby bottle balloon weights. The baby bottles used here are actually plastic favor containers, so they’re inexpensive - with some acrylic craft paint, spray paint and nail polish you can create an adorable balloon weight at your next baby shower. For the full tutorial, click here.
