16th balloon party decorations - DIY large balloon mosaics

I'm showing more detail for printing based on questions people have been asking. DIY large 16 balloon mosaics.
NOTE: Why I changed the percentage to 501%:
I had so many people ask why they are getting a different size when they print. I didn't understand until I tried on another computer. Normally I always put 500% but one of my computers doesn't show the correct size unless I increase the percentage. Just showing that some printers might be different and please check the size above the preview window before printing.
Balloons purchased from Amazon

I have a few other video tutorials on KZbin. Each one shows a little different detail - printing, making them, or filling
• Mosaic balloon numbers... - green & chrome 18
• 2020 Mosaic balloon nu... - red, white, & black 2020
• Balloon Number Mosaic ... - pink, white, & gold 2
• Balloon LETTER Mosaic ... - red, white, & blue USA letters
• DIY 3rd birthday ballo... - zebra & hot pink 3
UPDATE: To use less paper - don't click CUT MARKS or LABELS when printing. Some people lose track of how to lay the pages out but if you start horizontal across the top 4 pages and then start the next row below it.
I also started using a low temperature glue gun to attach balloons. Works so much better. - amzn.to/339C5F8

Hi trying to find the template for 16

[@victorianoel2814]

So it just depends on which printer you have for the setting. Beacuse i tired to print it and it dose not show up like that. I dont know another way i can get the template to print

[@badmofos]

You can print 3ft, 4ft, 5ft or larger and works on any printer. You need to adjust the percentage to get the size you want. This video has the best print instructions. Send me a screen capture if you still have trouble. Did you open in Adobe? That's the first step. You just need the free version.

[@victorianoel2814]

Ok i need to do that then i think thats what I am missing to open in that. Does it come in all computers or is that something i need to download

[@badmofos]

Sometimes it does. It's just a PDF viewer. You only need the free version called Acrobat Reader from the Adobe website. (not from the app store)
