1920's Balloon Car
The balloon car was built using a few different technics. As you can see the side bars are simple balloon garlands on ali rod. The rest of the car was built with ali rod and modelling balloons. The biggest problem with this project was building the car in sections that would fit though a standard door way. Access to the venue was limited so we had to build the car off site and assemble and hang it in a morning.

BALLOON
ARCH
A balloon
arch is an eye catching arc
of colour which frames an
area such as a bridal top table or
a stage. Our most popular balloon
arch is a single-line arch which comprises
of a row of 12" pearl latex balloons
with co-ordinating ribbon attached
to each balloon. The arch is weighted
at each end by a hand-made
weight and bow. |
Balloon Sculptures
If you're looking for that something extra we can custom build anything using small 5" balloons. This wheel was built for a firm promoting a new tyre. Balloon sculptures are made of extremely light material so we can hand them anywhere using light fishing line. |

Rigging The Wheel
Nice and easy because it's light, no problems with health and safety just a few lengths of fishing line and its in place. |

Balloon Palm Tree
Built using a standard balloon base and aluminium rod. The balloons are sized using a digital inflating machine so we can gradually decrease the balloon sizes from 9" to 1".
These are great to frame the entrance of any hawian or tropical themed party - finished with bouquets of parrot balloons attached to pineapples. |
Tea Pot Balloon Decoration
We used over 3000 x 5" balloons to build this tea pot. We made a basic frame with aluminium rod, covered the frame with netting and attached clusters of 5" balloons using paper clips (clusters of 2 balloons were attached to the netting using the paper clips).
Again we hung the sculpture as a stage decoration using fishing line.

Shamrock Balloon Sculpture
This shamrock was simple to build. We made 3 heart frames using ali rod, gaffa taped them together and there's your shamrock. We covered the frame using clusters of 4 x 5" balloons and filled the remaining space with standard balloon garlands and the help of a few elastic bands. |
| We keep our balloon sculptures flat by building them on the floor. This is also important when bending the aluminium rod - always keep your shape flat to the ground or it will buckle. |

Logo Balloon Walls
A great effect for displaying your logo. We make a simple classic balloon wall and build your logo with foam board then using a cold melt glue gun we glue the foam board to the wall. |
Balloon Snow Man
The balloon snowman is an effective stage or entrance decoration. This chap was used to decorate the VIP area for a Christmas lights switch on. This decoration needs no frame work it's basically 2 balloons, glue and a few balloon tricks. |

Balloon Snow Man with Christmas Tree & Snow
It's always possible to add a little extra, here we installed the trees and the snow - lucky for us we didn't have to tidy up after the event. |
Balloon Installation
Where possible we always try and use our own rigging equipment. On some occasions when access to areas is extra tricky we sometimes require a cherry picker and extra equipment. Safety is of upmost importance at all times. |

1000 Balloon drop & balloon bouquets
This is a great example of how classic balloon decor can work. Nobody fills space like a balloon decorator and hall 3 in the ICC is a big space to fill. Bouquets of foil balloons and a balloon drop is quick simple decoration that can fill a big space. |
