How to Make a Balloon Stand

[@Meelayyy-ge4xp]

Hello it’s me the one at the school today! The one who asked you if you have a KZbin channel

[@neajaheight9103]

Great video. Thank you.

hello, do you think this is more sturdy then regular balloon sticks?

[@pamelaharwell]

Yes, the maxi sticks are thicker, however if you are not using a lot of balloons and causing weight then a regular balloon stick may work.

Another awesome video

Hi Balloon Gal. Another fantastic info video - You explain every so clearly with great results. Can I ask if you think 'Balloon Bond' is the strongest adhesive to use or would regular double sided tape would work just as well? Balloon bond here in the UK is very expensive to buy and double sided tape is a fraction of the price. Your knowledgeable advice is always taken! Best wishes Annette - England

[@pamelaharwell]

My suggestion is shipping tape. Attach 1 strip on each side that is long enough to wrap around the back of the tile. That's what I use to reinforce mine sometimes not even using balloon bond.

Thank you Balloon Gal. I'm sure you've tried and tested many materials and techniques. Thanks for showing us your best ideas - They're always welcome. Best wishes Annette - England

Will the maxi sticks hold the weight of a tulle balloon centerpiece?

Your link won't show up

+Balloon Gal Got it need it to order sticks and base in video thanks a lot

[@Mrscreative47]

+Balloon Gal what are the hang tags

[@pamelaharwell]

They are adhesive strips with a hole in the top. You use them on balloons to create an attachment point where there isn't one. : )

[@Mrscreative47]

+Balloon Gal Can you do video using them?

[@Mrscreative47]

+Balloon Gal like when you what to add letters and numbers on top

Hi, would this hold up outside?

[@pamelaharwell]

Keysha Waters No, there isn't enough weight to keep it from getting pushed off the table by any wind.

[@KayTLC24]

thank you

[@KayTLC24]

would this be a good centerpiece for out door

[@pamelaharwell]

It would depend on the weather. This is more for indoor as it's light-weight. However if if the winds are calm then you could use it outside, preferably in a covered area. Balloons are biodegradable so things like sun and wind will affect them. Heat makes them lose their shine and become cloudy. Wind will toss them around so they need something heavy and sturdy when outside. : )

When you get a chance can u make a video on colums n 40" balloons how to attach when there's on tail like a number 0 or even 5??

[@pamelaharwell]

I sure can. If you are making it soon though, then you can watch the How to Make a Personalized Column video. It's done the same way except the 11" balloons should be inflated to 9 1/2 or 10 inches (depending on preference) and you would use a whole 260 instead of a partial piece. Oh and you would use a bigger weight. : )
