Great job Sage! Love what you did for the top part! Awesome job with editing :)

[@BalloonSage]

Hey, your Christmas tree really inspired me and I am working on a design right now. You are the best!

[@BalloonSage]

I know I didn't change much from Balloon Gal's version but I was hoping the dollar store aspect would help me slide.

[@askmeforaballoon]

Balloon Sage Thank you :) It inspired me for another one too!

[@askmeforaballoon]

Balloon Sage People love stuff they can get at the dollar store :) The printed balloons are awesome, don't think we have printed ones at my dollar store. I have seen some, but at dollar stores where things are more than a dollar. Going to keep my eyes open :)

[@BalloonSage]

Ask Me For A Balloon they smelled a bit like spray paint so I am not sure how legit the printing process is, but they looked pretty cool, at least. I've noticed a lot of my party stores and dollar stores in my area are stocking more balloons and with more variety. I have to imagine tutorials like yours are making balloon decorating even more popular globally than ever! Cheers.

Thanks callieoops, I can always count on a comment from you, haha.

[@debrapiazza1166]

Great tutorial. How far in advance can you make these before balloons deflate?

[@BalloonSage]

Well, I always have the same answer to this question. Quite honestly, they will be noticeably deflated and unsightly if you create them too far in advance. The reality is that these constructs look their very best the day they are made. The earliest that I ever create decorations for an event is the night before, where I then cover the columns in large plastic bags and tie them airtight overnight to keep the luster of the latex bright and prohibiting air molecules from escaping. If you really want everyone to be impressed with your work, it would be a prudent decision to create them within 24 hours of the event. Balloon decorating can be a delicate artform, and it's all about aesthetic. Thank you for your question.

[@aprilhernandez6396]

What pump did you use for the balloons? So cute btw! 🎈💕

[@BalloonSage]

Hi! I only use one pump - the Qualatex Dual-Action Hand Inflator. It’s always lime green and always the best!

[@jessiicamartiinez8172]

Where do u buy pump at

[@Mixedmuva]

How long abouts will these stay inflated for? could I make them the day before my shower and them hold up?

[@BalloonSage]

Hi! Yes, you can inflate these and set them up the night before - just make sure to keep them overnight in large plastic bags. This keeps the air in better but (more importantly) it protects the balloon’s luster from dulling and keeps them looking beautiful as well as full.

[@janita27891]

u really make it look super easy lol I'm definitely gonna try it for my nephews gf baby shower

[@BalloonSage]

That sounds great!

Amazing thanks for sharing

[@stefanomolinari1876]

whict size you have use aboute the ballons?

[@chewy5cs]

How long do they stay inflated? Could I inflate them the day before the baby shower or day of?

[@BalloonSage]

Hi! I advise my viewers to create the column the night before, and then keep the finished design overnight in a large airtight bag. This will ensure the balloons to not deflate and the luster of the colors will remain aesthetically desirable for the day’s event.

[@oliviarivera6698]

is it for inside or outside?

[@adrianaguerrero4605]

How long does the balloon sage last before the balloons start losing air?

[@BalloonSage]

Hi there! Balloons are like a birthday cake - they last for a while, but their main function is for one particular day. I always tell my viewers that columns can be made the night before if they stored in a large airtight plastic bag overnight to be opened fresh for the next day. The balloons losing their air is not even the main concern - it’s that when stretched latex is exposed to air, the luster of the balloons can dull rather quickly. A large, airtight bag keeps these two issues from becoming a problem for you. I know, it’s not the most convenient situation, but if you make the column days in advance and do not store it - it will be like a cut flower not in water.

[@adrianaguerrero4605]

Is doing it 2 days before will that be a problem?

[@marindaamaya7797]

what size balloons are you using ?

[@BalloonSage]

Hi! I am using 9-inch round balloons. The two standard sizes you will find at dollar stores and party stores are either 12" balloons or 9" balloons.

[@soniahernandez2135]

good

[@sep2167]

Balloon Sage if you use 12" balloons how many pumps will you need?

Thanks so much, Jessica

[@BalloonSage]

I just noticed your Amblin Entertainment Logo has a xenomorph in Elliot's basket. I. Love. That.

[@MsQueenofyourdreams]

Well thank you, I love it too 😀

[@greddygut]

Great video... what kind of pump was that that you used?

[@BalloonSage]

greddygut hi, I am using a Qualatex Hand Inflator which I ordered online. I order most of my supplies online, and this is the only style of pump I ever use. I have quite a few.

[@MsMiniDope]

Every time I stack these, I see gaps in the middle and see the ribbon, I am using nine inch balloons, not sure what I’m doing wrong any advice?

[@BalloonSage]

Depending on the size of the balloons and amount inflated, there will sometimes be slight gaps. It also depends on how tight you make the quads at the centers, and how tightly you compress multiple quads using ribbon. Seeing a bit of ribbon through the balloons can be okay if you use a ribbon that matches the color so it stands out less.

[@kayay3858]

Are the columns good for outside use?

[@BalloonSage]

They can be, but they will only last for the duration of a party before the sun and win does a number on them. Outside columns generally are constructed using a pole and base plate system.

[@melissabrowne9809]

Now I'm really stuck for baby shower idea they are so good 😱

[@BalloonSage]

Haha

[@daysbeauty]

you rock

[@BalloonSage]

Thank you so much for your comment - glad you liked the video!

[@kelaboo1]

Where do I get a good balloon pump

[@BalloonSage]

Hi. Honestly, I only ever use one balloon pump - and that is the Qualatex dual action hand Inflator. You pretty much have to order one off of Amazon or directly from the Qualatex website or the Mayflower Distributing Company catalogue. I never use any other pump.

[@tinkabel34]

you are awesome

[@BalloonSage]

Haha, glad you like the vid!

[@lrogersbeaujuin768]

How far in advance can I make this?

[@giovannahernandez4471]

Can I use 12” instead or it won’t work??

[@BalloonSage]

Hi! Sure, you can use 12” rounds if you like.

[@giovannahernandez4471]

Balloon Sage would it come out bigger ? Or same

[@BalloonSage]

Well, if you inflate them the same amount they will be relatively the same size - but they will also possibly be a lot more malleable and difficult to build with due to how soft and squishy they are. I made this video a few years ago and nowadays I would have included instructions on the 12” version as well. I teach much more thoroughly now. 9” definitely recommended but 12” has a possibility of working. You could scale the design up, but I’m not smart enough to tell you how much extra air each balloon should have. Thank you for your question!

[@christinavelez1661]

Im goin to try this for my baby shower I dont know about the gold on top

[@MYBESTFRIENDKANDD]

so you tie them before binding them.

[@justtorry2859]

Yea he does

[@pearlaudelo1366]

I have the air machine and it does two at a time. He's using a pump from dollar tree. it's harder to hold a balloon and pump.. so he tied them off..

[@sep2167]

If you use 12" balloons how many pumps will you do?

[@BalloonSage]

Honestly. it is all about symmetry as opposed to specific numbers. it all depends on what kind of pump you are using as well. Pretty much just equally add 4 pumps each to whatever Ive done here in this video.

[@sep2167]

Balloon Sage ok thank you

[@daneisharoman5762]

Thank u

[@florramos6687]

Link to the pump

[@BalloonSage]

It is a Qualatex dual-action hand Inflator. You can order it on Amazon.

[@melissatrejo6826]

How tall are they?

[@BalloonSage]

Hi! Approximately 4.5 feet tall or a little over 50 inches. Thanks for watching.

[@calirose8648]

Trying for my shower 🎀

[@BalloonSage]

Awesome!

[@cynenergy]

what inch size balloons

[@BalloonSage]

Hi! You can use 9” or 12”.

[@Mrscreative47]

They look like 5" and 11" Balloons

[@BalloonSage]

Haha, yeah they sure do, but they are 12" round for gold and 9" round for pink and white.

[@Mrscreative47]

oh ok

[@RachelCh4444]

How long does it take for a rookie to make this?

[@BalloonSage]

Hi. The amount of time it takes each person to build this will vary. There are so many individual factors. However, I can tell you that at the time of making this video 2 years ago, I was a rookie. I forced myself to figure this column out and then came up with a way to make a video about it. I imagine this could be learnt and built in about 2 hours, but once you have these techniques down, all columns and arches are virtually the same. Thanks for watching!

[@menayaliekamara4724]

Is there a reason why you’re not using a air compressor? Asking for a friend. And the gold balloons are bigger than the white & pink? 🤔

[@BalloonSage]

Hi there! This was one of my first column videos and I would have taught this design much differently if I made it today. However, I generally demonstrate hand inflation as most people don’t own an electric pump and sizing box and I make videos for the largest audience possible. Thank you for your questions!

[@menayaliekamara4724]

Balloon Sage Gotcha! Attempting this creation this week (w an air compressor 🤷🏼‍♀️) Appreciate you taking the time to reply! XO

[@BalloonSage]
