Organic Balloon Garland Tutorial | Step by Step | DIY | How To

Hey Designers!! Welcome back! Today on the Vlog we are turning a "basic" balloon garland into a "designer" balloon garland using balloons in beautiful purple tones with hints of silver and white.

[@lauracunningham6502]

Its beautiful. I'm going to try this. What size were the balloons you used. As in the lilacs. We're they all Same size but inflated to different sizes. Or did you mix them. Was it like a 9 inch duplex then a 5 inch. So the first 2 balloons you started with what were they inflated to zxx I'm getting confused x

[@creativesidekick]

Hi 👋 love your Videos ! Thank-you 😊 What size balloons are you using and how many inches do you inflate the balloons?

[@allisonbowie132]

Thank you. I finally understand.

[@MzRealtawk4lyfe]

Love it!!!

[@lizbriscoe6490]

Hi there! Thank you so much for this tutorial. It will really help me the next time I make a balloon garland. How did you added the 5" balloons to the garlan? Glue dots or with the fishing line.

[@SharpeDesignsbyLakeisha]

I used fishing line on this whole garland.

[@tinakingsley4368]

So beautiful

[@evp913]

Get it girl! 👍🏽

[@meganchitzel12]

Your work is so amazing!!!! About how many balloons do you need to make one arch?

[@ballroomsurgedance]

Thank you for this video! Question. I see you use different size balloons in your cluster, little , big and then you mix up sizes is that the goal?

[@laconiaboatwright8168]

TO TEACH MY SELF HOW TO MAKE A BALLOON GARLAND SHOULD I PRACTICE WITH DOLLAR TREE BALLOON UNTIL I GET IT

[@thebougiewinechick1869]

I've been doing that. As well as walmart balloons. I think im ready to move up to qualatex brand.

[@fabfoz]

Great idea

[@anneesharagbir1607]

Hi I have a few questions: 1. When doing the balloon Garland hot air balloon..will I use less balloons if I stick the balloons? Also I didnt understand the Garland for the hot air balloon

[@shirley-anneasamoah-mensah1047]

thanks for this amazing tutorial. i will lIke to ask if you have heard of or seen the "Bunch-O-balloon Self Sealing Balloon" and if you have, can you please make a review about it and also use it to make a balloon garland tutorial for us. thanks so much

[@SharpeDesignsbyLakeisha]

Yes I’ve heard of it. I have a review up on my Channel for it. You could use it to do a simple garland but not an organic garland because it blows them up to be the same size.

[@kshain1236]

What you used to tuck ballons in the wall???

[@hafidhajohnson3698]

Hi how many ballons u use to make the Garland

[@thepeachhh]

does anyone know what size the big lavender or silver balloons are?

[@tayeishanunezbatres5413]

How’s you get into balloon art? I

[@youfoundlove]

This was so detailed! I love how you repeated the figure eight method so it could register for your watchers! Thank you so much! I feel confident in completing these balloon garlands now!

[@beautifulfromashleyb3704]

Guuuurrrrrlllll!!! THANK YOU!!! My string was lookin a hot mess! I’m gonna be repeating that to myself every time I do a garland. “Push the balloon in the middle of the old pair, wrap the string around the new, then around the existing like a figure 8, back to the middle a pull and around again for good measure” 😂 This vlog was excellent!

[@SharpeDesignsbyLakeisha]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@matildamaingi8277]

🤣🤣🤣

[@mysellaherrera2557]

Hi, I thank God for you, you're awesome gifted & talented young lady..doing you're thang thank for keep us up and popping always..

[@ap784]

I just watched a video you recorded from July where you used 260q to join your balloons.. do you still use fishing line at all? Does it depend on what you’re creating?

[@RicalleNicole]

Where do you order the qualatex and sempertex brand? I'm having a hard time finding them online.

[@crystalpcullen]

Amazon sells them both

[@mscott5198]

Thank you so much for this step by step video! I’m giving my daughter a gender reveal party and I am going to attempt to make an organic balloon garland for the first time ever...about how many balloons do you typically use for an organic balloon garland?

[@faithrandolph901]

I was able to attempt my first garland today thanks to this video! I have the basic structure of getting the string/balloons closely stuck together thanks to your technique. I plan on starting to use the 260q balloons very soon & also adding the clusters & decor to make it more organic. Thank you so much for this!! Love your channel! 💜💜

[@jasmineking4986]

How do you hang your garland up at venues? I have trouble with that sometimes because some venues doesn’t want anything on their walls?

[@princessmadero1]

I’m brand new and doing a garland in a few hours…what happens if a balloon pops? Also how many balloons did this one take, do you know?

[@chevelmitchell876]

Great job. Beautiful. How many balloons did you use for this please? And the link for the butterflies. 😇

[@lauracunningham6502]

its beautiful. were all the balloons at the beginning the same size but just blown up to didfferent sozes. for example were they all 11 inches

[@Tbrri]

How would I make the butterflies stay if I’m having my baby shower at the park so I want to take everything pre done or have some thing to stick them

[@iosananazario9160]

Boa noite, amo seus vídeos e uma pena não eu não entender nada que vc fala, Abraços.

[@beautifulfromashleyb3704]

Do you ever have to clean dust or hair off your garlands? What do you use if so?

[@bickiad]

Thank you! I’m a lot more confident in making my first balloon garland tomorrow :)

[@user-cy8xe9of6q]

Where do you buy the balloons? Amazon?

Beautiful as always. I can't wait for next weekend to make this balloon garland. I'm a little nervous, but you are a great teacher so I will get it done. My backdrop stand is 8X10. Hope I can do a great job as you do. Have you every used the clear balloon that needs to be stretch before inflation. Please let me know and if you have a video showing it. TFS. God blessings

[@SharpeDesignsbyLakeisha]

Ooooh!! That’s going to be big and pretty! Yes I have used clear balloons but I don’t have a video on it.

[@dayonna03]

Did I miss what size balloons you are using? Would you be able to add that in your tutorials?

[@cameilecharles]

Random sizes...just blowing air to give it that organic look. good luck

[@MariaOrtiz-ed2pf]

I am making my first balloon garland for my daughter's sweet 16 party. Question... how do you tie the two balloons together? Are you tying them by the balloon ends? Thank you

[@tabathahagan6913]

[@STARBURSTlious]

what type of balloon do you use???

[@lorietonche6494]

Hi! Thanks so much for this amazing tutorial! Was wondering if you measure your balloon sizes when inflating? They look perfect!

[@Sushildecorwalasurat]

Very good decoration and balloon very nice thank you so much

[@sierasade6754]

You go Girl!! I’m so happy I’ve found your channel!! SUBSCRIBED!!!!

[@skemp177]

I love your work, made a balloon garland for the first time using your instruction. It turned out nice. I’ll keep practicing. Thank you for your help.

[@KaydiDevlin]

Question, the crossing of the clusters, aren’t you essentially making quads? I have been making mine doing what you’re doing but using quads. Your garland is nicer than mine, but is it because of this difference? Basically can you explain why making quads then stacking in the cross manner, tied with string, does not work? AND is there a way to make one side of the garland a bit flat so to speak so that it presses up to the wall or stand easier? Venues and client homes I can’t use tacks on the walls and am really having a time with attaching securely to wall or stand. Please advise and thank you, I hope to get a response I’ve never replied to a video on you tube ever lol ... Be Eventful! 2 days ago Kaydi Devlin Oh! And in total how long did it take you, if you include time for blowing up the balloons as well. Okay that’s the last question I promise! Thank you !

[@preetgill7116]

Could you please do a video on the types of brands u can use for balloon garlands like CTI, betallic, qualatex etc and just cheap plain white balloons and stuff you can purchase.

[@tye89nick79]

Please share where your couch is from…it’s gonna save my life I promise 😩😩😅

[@hunnit8860]

Hi Sister, in my head anyway. When I try to order the fishing line it asks what size like meaning weight of the line or whatever and I tried to order the balloon pump but the link doesn't work. Also, I want to practice next week doing a column to fit across my 10x10 photo stand and I've never done this before so my question is do I need a kit or anything to make the balloons stand up and stay standing if that makes sense?

[@deitraseuphoria5840]

Hi LaKeisha! I love your work! When you have a huge party, how far in advance do you start blowing balloons? Is is okay to start blowing up the 5 inches like a week in advance???🤔

[@patlopami]

How did you learn to do this?

[@tatyanaashley3323]

What sizes did you blow them up? I see a variety of sizes. How many of each size did you blow up? I’m in the process of learning. Beautiful garland 💕

[@emiliapina17]

Last question. ! I'm a Newbie and want to start making own garland for our parties . How many balloons does a garland like this usually take?

[@keshiabrewer5822]

I just finished watching your video because I'm new to this, and the tutorial really helped me a lot. Thank you

[@shaylalynch3657]

Love this where do you get your accessories for your balloons? The butterflies and how do you attach them?

[@withdione8168]

Hi Lakeisha your is awesome really appreciate you sharing with us ,I would like to know where did u get the pretty white cart the balloons are around on another blog u recently?

[@pjshel-touzinsky9665]

thanks for a better view of your figure 8 and around for good measure! so enjoying your creativity. Love the variety of colors, texture to add diversity. thank you...thank you...so much fun seeing creations come to life. ♥♥♥

[@tthompson976]

You are the bomb. I don't know what the heck I'm doing but am trying to create a simple balloon cloud for a baby shower. I think i did ok thanks to you.

[@brittanih4257]

This is the video I needed right here

[@trenee1969]

Love love love ..hiw many balloons do you think you used of each color. I know it depends on the size but I am asking for the size you used.. i always under buy lol

[@jeanettehead3358]

Hello Lakeisha, I love all of your balloon decor. When doing organic balloon garlands how do you use more than one or more colors together without color blocking? What are the sizes or do you just blow the balloons up?

[@ingridpadilla6192]

Totally love all you videos. What is the average amount of balloons and sizes used for your organic garlands. I been practising and its going well.

[@kristal.youtuberivera3388]

Beautiful. Good work.

[@michelledemasi196]

thank you so much for this awesome video! How many balloons would you say you need for this size garland? Do you buy an even amount of each size balloons?

[@rbh1324]

Can we get a count on how many times "for good measure" was used???🤭🤷🏾😒

[@SharpeDesignsbyLakeisha]
