[@TheCowJumpedOvertheBalloon]

Thanks for such a bubblicious BMTV!! My fav go to crisps are Kettle lightly salted. I also love Frazzles! When I first started ballooning, I knew no better and tried to get Bobo's to float with helium. I now know they don't float and you should use bubbles instead! Thanks again. P.s. Leon, of course it was bison. New joke on my next order!!

[@millylopez6913]

This video was very informative!! Thank you. On the Bee bubble gum deco balloon, was the yellow collar blown with helium or air??

[@lucyhennessycba3227]

The collars were air everything else was helium

[@homedecor379]

Love you guys!! One question: Greg, can you use air-filled into the bubble balloons and also the 260q balloons and just tie the combination into your installation? Just in case you don't have helium. Thanks All beautiful

[@lucyhennessycba3227]

You can air fill any of the bubble designs just tie them into a base

[@ladytame1130]

What's the difference between a deco bubble and a bobo balloon?

[@BalloonMarket]

Deco Bubbles are a smartie shape, and can last a really long time with helium. You'll also need to tie the neck of a Deco with a 260 to seal it! BoBo's don't last very long with helium, but they are completely spherical. You can also stretch the neck of a BoBo, tie it, and then heat seal it if you need. 😊

[@colesyn]

Why tie the stuffed bubble with a 260 ? Why not just tie the latex it holds fine

[@lucyhennessycba3227]

Hi I just tie it the same way as I would a normal deco bubble, it’s habit . You can tie off the 16’’ but I have found those people with little experience of tying a 16’’ find it harder to tie to begin with 🎈
