Hello Mandi! You did amazing! What was the length and thickness of the Luca’s name sign? Thank you in advance!

[@mandipalermo]

@@mayhill3088 Hello May, THANK YOU! I took a long time choosing the length and thickness because there were so many options. However, I'm really happy with my choices. Luca was 24" long and 1/4" thick and in font 102 Alexander was 20" long and 1/4" thick and in font 138

[@anuanju10]

You did great even though it was ur first! Loved it

[@SPJ974]

If you use a straw, you can insert it into the first ballon then poke that into the second ballon and only knot the internal balloon! So much easier!

[@babynoufal6883]

How many balloons you used for that ?arch

[@natalieking9041]

So glad I found this video. Im trying to plan my sons birthday early so I can save up for everything. This is the same inspo pic I found! You did an amazing job. I love the etsy sign and the balloon tip is perfect. Such a cute family!

[@trueangel4744]

Did an amazing job. You gave me an idea. I’m about to go get the stuff and try what you did you did an awesome job.

[@debadritaaa6056]

This is so aesthetically pleasing, you really did amazing, she's gonna love that!! :)

[@JoannaReason]

Awesome video and resources! Thank you for sharing.

[@mandipalermo]

Thank you for watching Joanna ❤️ I’m glad you found it helpful

[@SikanderTalksSocial]

Definitely loved how everything came out! Some tips I can share with you; for double stuffed balloons try using a pen instead to put one balloon inside the other, another thing to put up your garland you could use command hooks and tide your garland with fishing line or 260 balloons to the command hooks. I hope this helps and make your life easier in the future

[@Santacruz19]

Hi loved this video !! Planning my first baby first birthday and we want something simple, small yet fun and you gave me lots of ideas. Thanks 😊

Loved it!!!! I ordered some stuff for my baby's birthday from amazon and Walmart ugh stressful but can't wait to see the outcome.

[@mandipalermo]

You've got this! I can't wait to see how it all turns out. Enjoy your baby's first

[@Keeeishhaa]

Looks great!! My son will be one in November he’s our first. I plan to do my own balloon garland as well

[@moondiyosa3510]

This was a beautiful set up and you have a beautiful family !! The little thing your son was dancing on what it called I want to get one for my daughter

[@Beautytherapist-wb1rz]

Omg i thought only i am the one who is crazy about my son's birthday. You did great

[@sarahsshelf8349]

so great! thanks for the inspo! Happy Birthday little one!

[@osarameau]

Thanks for sharing I'm going to copy everything for my baby boy birthday next month ❤️

[@kisswelam]

This is beautiful

[@CC-fs4ew]

if you blow up the balloons 3 days prior to the party they will look richer bc they deflate a tiny bit on their own. But if you want to do them day of, you can use a chopstick to insert the other balloon.To hang the Garland using a binder clip and attaching the fishing line to them does the trick. Lastly haha there a balloon pumps that come with a tying tool to save your fingers!

[@destinythomas7047]

Thank you because I’m doing a version of this for my daughters first birthday! The garland is what I’m not excited about lol

[@loubnabizani4294]

I love the simplicity and aesthetic of this birthday party

Where did u get the balloons from ... I’m having hard time finding the brown and grey balloons I love your decor idea

[@mandipalermo]

Hey! Thank you ❤️ I said where I got everything in the video and every last thing is linked in the description. The nude balloons are from Amazon and the dark brown, orange and blue balloons are from Etsy. The exact shop is linked 🥰

[@nickiimedford5141]

[@teresagonzalez5027]

Thank you for slowly showing how to tie the balloons it was breaking my head trying to figure it out

[@veronicastigger7947]

Omg you made my night. Nothing that’s affordable is open to rent so we going to do a small first birthday for him. Damn Covid smh. The money I would’ve saved we going on a trip with a beach lol

[@mandipalermo]

trust me, it’s going to come out just as good. AND you save some coin and can use it for something else. It’s a win-win! Happy birthday to your son and thank you for watching ❤️

[@mamalovesbeige]

Great job momma!🥳

[@williammoerno5181]

Everything looks great I have a question can you blow up the balloons a night before the party

[@mandipalermo]

Thank you William ! & Absolutely! In the video, I explain that I did it over the course of a few days. The balloons I blew up 2 days before the party and stored them in my bedroom ☺️ they held up perfectly

[@marieconerly7989]

Nice design When you doublestuff balloons just tie the inside ones.

[@cheyennetorres9694]

So I definitely know this is crazy but my son is 5m an I wanna play starting now I love this theme and when u showed your inspired theme My sons name is Enzo’’!!! Super crazy!!!!!

[@mandipalermo]

We were so close to naming our son Enzo! Lol and it’s not crazy at all! I was browsing around the 5-6m mark too! You’ll just be EXTRA prepared when the time comes ❤️

[@stmlifestyle3349]

Where did you get the orange balloons ?

[@krishnavenik1007]

Hi can you share me , where did you get your baby s birthday dress

[@twinkle3106]

Awesome 👌 Can you tell me the size of that name board(both first name and last name)please 😊

[@Diana-yn6yj]

Hi Mandi I LOVED your video and outcome of your sons bday. I’m currently planning out my sons 1st and am very interested in knowing which font style you chose for theater wood name cutout. I love the font for the full name and am wondering which font you chose for first and last. If you could please let me know so I can order from that Etsy link you shared I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks mama! 💖 Also I’m doing a Noah’s Ark theme for my son Noah. Lol He loves animals. Also thank you for the balloon tips! I’ll be making a garland too!

[@Diana-yn6yj]

Nevermind I found the answer to my question in a previous comment. Did you paint the name yourself or did the Etsy shop paint/stain it? Thanks again! 🙏

[@mandipalermo]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I hope your son enjoys his first birthday. The pieces came like that, I didn't paint them at all to get the result. It's just a bare wood

[@Diana-yn6yj]

@@mandipalermo thank you so much mamas! ✨

[@Diana-yn6yj]

I hope he will too!

[@YoungInfamous]

Very helpful video

Thank you for watching Chris! Luca was 24" long and 1/4" thick and in font 102 Alexander was 20" long and 1/4" thick and in font 138

Use a skinny dowel rod, pencil or something skinny to put balloons inside another one.

Hi what is the app you used to plan called

[@mandipalermo]

It’s called Milanote 🥰

[@mylynvarona5507]

You didn’t need his name on everything. That was kind of too much. But overall, it looks great!

[@numbnutzs]

Hi. I love how you put it all together. You made it all look easy! I went to the link you gave us for the blue and orange balloons but I can’t find them. Do you remember which shade of blue did you get from the site? That would be really helpful to know I’m also planning my son’s first in October and I would love to use these colors too! Thank you in advance! New subscriber btw :)

[@mandipalermo]

Hey Karina! Thank you for subscribing it means a lot ❤️ I just went thru the Etsy site. My specific pack is in a collection called “HARVEST Custom Chalk Matte Colors” and I got the colors Harvest Orange, Steel Blue + Carob www.etsy.com/listing/773874390/harvest-custom-chalk-matte-colors-5-11?ref=shop_home_active_23&crt=1 I’ll change the link in my bio to be more specific 🥰 thanks for bringing that to my attention
