OUTDOOR SET UP WITH ME | Florida Beach Themed Balloon Garland Install | DIY How To

Come set up this cute beach-themed balloon garland with me!
I’ll show you what balloons I used, how many of each I used, how I created this balloon garland and then how I hung and installed it in this outdoor environment. As usual, I’ll pass on a few of my favorite tips and tricks along the way so if you’re looking for a fun DIY balloon garland tutorial, let’s go!
Not so long ago, I was back in my native homeland of Florida, and made this beautiful balloon garland for a friend of mine who had just moved cross country to be there, and this was kind of my “welcome to Florida” creation for her. It’s beach-themed, incorporating colors of the sand, water, and waves. It blew her away, and it’s one of my faves to date. I hope you love it!

[@kendracopelan6196]

I love your videos Rachael. And OMG your comment at the end about ACATOR lol

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Awwwww thank you so much Kendra!!! 🤭🤭🤭 hehehe someone pretty fabulous changed my life by introducing me to that series I’m just paying it forward😆🦇 XOXO, Rach

Love your videos! Theyre so clear and easy to understand with beautiful results! We're hoping to do a garland for a graduation in a few weeks outdoors in Texas. Do you think it would last for an event from 3pm to 9pm with no direct sun? Fingers crossed!

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Thank you! If you use professional balloons and it is lucky enough to be in the shade, I think it’ll be okay! I did a couple videos documenting an outdoor test I did on different brands and honestly some of them lasted ages! Best of luck to you 🤞🏻🎈🫧 XOXO, Rach

[@juliedarocha1413]

Hi, love this! Thank you for sharing:) My question is Regarding your clusters.. it seems like there are clusters of six why did you choose clusters of six as opposed to clusters of eight can you explain is there a difference? 😊

[@candiceberube338]

Rachel, love your videos! Wondering - do you have a preference between using strips, fishing lines or no strip or lines when creating your garlands? I prefer using nothing, but didn't know if you've found different situations warrant a different approach. TIA!

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Hey Candice! Thanks for the kind words! I tend to prefer nothing (on good balloons like Kalisan) or 260s, like what is featured in my video on the fastest balloon garland ever, but I do like fishing line in some scenarios (like this one!). : ) XOXO, Rach

[@lornag1447]

How long will the balloons last? Can I make the garland a few days before the event or does it have to be day of? This is gorgeous, you are so talented and make it look so easy…thank you for sharing

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Hi Lorna, thank you so much for the kind words! Usually they can be done a day or more ahead of time, but I always recommend you test it by inflating a few of the ones you'll be using to see how they age and have confidence how they'll do for you! XOXO, Rach

[@RocioRodriguez-rr9wz]

As Always, Beautiful Creation!! What kind of hook brand do you used on walls? I always have trouble with mine popping off 🙄

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Hey Rocio! I know what you mean. I often use Command hooks, and I have a few different videos sharing tips on using those successfully. With this creation, I was lucky enough that the gazebo was metallic and magnetic so I could use Clik Clik magnets which was MAGICAL! I will have a video coming out on those at some point... : ) XOXO, Rach

[@jhunnicutt7162]

What are some tips for using Garland or designs in general outside in Florida?

[@amycarlisle9600]

how do you transport your garlands? making one for a prom but do not want to have to do it all on location..

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Hey Amy! A lot of artists rent like a Uhaul truck? I have always made do with my SUV, usually by inflating as much as I can fit in the car offsite and doing the rest onsite. XOXO, Rach

[@katiehealy5674]

Do you have any small tips on how to keep those balloons from popping in this Florida heat? I know underinflating is a must! Lol But do you recommend anything else to go along with that? Thank you!! 🤍🥂

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Hey Katie!! Ughhhhh, the bane of my existence. But yes, using professional grade balloons like Qualatex, then double stuffing, keeping them OUT OF THE SUN, and then waiting until the last possible second to bring them outside are my best tips. Best of luck!!! XOXO, Rach

[@katiehealy5674]

Thank you!! I cringe when i even think about an outdoor summer setup. 🤣

[@Christinamartin1621]

Hi! This is stunning! What brand is the pump you are using? What do you recommend? I just watch this extremely controversial reel on Instagram at the pink pump from amazon is not professional 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Hey Christina!! LOL honestly I don't use a professional one, but the one I use is *slightly* better than the pink one. The link for it is in the video description above. 💖 XOXO, Rach

[@drayarutherford7637]

Does this brand remain glossy with shine

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Hey Draya, in the outdoors in Florida, no balloon stays shiny or glossy without HiShine or a similar shine spray. ☀ XOXO, Rach

[@heidinoa2427]

How do you transport your balloons?

[@BubblyBalloonCo]

Hey Heidi! I have an SUV, so I usually pack it out with as much as possible, usually clusters, plus my suitcase of all of my supplies & tools, then I finish installation on site. I know some artists either have huge trucks or rent them from places like Uhaul. And other times (like this creation) I do the entire creation on-site. XOXO, Rach

How do l make sure the balloons don't pop when setting up garland on the loan 🤔

Hey Tadiwa! How do you make sure they don't pop when you're setting up where? Let me know what your concern is with them popping and I'll try to help! XOXO, Rach
