You Can Make Balloon Columns For Only $5! 

She has been a blessing to me as well. Thank you, sincerely, for watching my videos.

Well if you're gonna be a better balloon artist start with not buying dollar store balloons

You would be surprised at the quality. I have had packages of Qualatex rounds that let me down when Happy Party balloons have not. These balloons pass weather and stress tests as well as comparison tests regarding duration of inflation, color, color saturation upon inflation, etc. I used to laugh at the idea of using ANYTHING except for Qualatex, but You can see for yourself how beautiful these balloons look in the videos and how I am creating the column outside on top of a windy mountain without trouble.

Thanks

I’m so glad my videos are helpful.

Thank you so much! Yes, I hope my videos will endure and be helpful to others for a long time.

Lol! Excellent.

Aw, thanks!

Thanks very much!

I’m sure you will do great.

Thanks, Brett! That means a lot.

Wonderful!

Excellent! These videos are made primarily to save young mothers some money.

Lol! Well Iris, there would have been more, but my double-stuffed roses centerpiece has been delayed because I was extremely sick the last few days. I'm better now and will begin filming the vid today. What were you doing up in North Carolina - visiting friends or family? No internet - I used to never use the internet, but since I made my channel my iPhone is on 24/7. Thank you for checking out my new vid - this one has been a big hit and I hope I can keep making successful content like this.

Oh, sorry to hear that. I am glad you are feeling better. We went to Blowing Rock with some friends and my family. The place is amazing and you can connect with the beauty of mother nature, but the cabin we were staying at our phone company had zero signal. I was tough but good at the same time. After a week I got used to. I only had signal when we drove down to town. I hope to see soon your next vid. Have an amazing week!!!!

Thank you so much for watching! And I love those shades, haha.

Funny because i was making cakes and now moved into balloon art because i could not deal with the baking, oven, icing, cooling and such!

You're welcome - my pleasure.

Thank you for watching!

Thanks for watching, Bridget!

Fantastic!

I appreciate the unique compliment! This is honestly my favorite video I’ve made. Thank you for watching.

Balloon Sage You're a doll, aren't you? Your video surprisingly popped up on my recommendations queue, and I thought why the heck not watch it. I call this video a visual ASMR. It helps me to calm from anxiety. I subbed because you've brought me joy. ~xo

¡Gracias!

Thanks for watching!

Dropdead Fred thanks a lot! This is my favorite video.

Thanks a lot, Tammy!

Thanks!

Thank you!

You are so welcome!

lovely!

Thanks!

The secret to making good quads is tying the nozzle very close to the inflated portion of the balloon as opposed to the mouth of the nozzle. Pairing tightly and spinning the quads tightly helps make the quads more like singular building blocks rather than 4 individual balloons loosely attached together. When I first started building columns and arches, it took a good amount of practice to make the quads exactly as they needed to be. I keep my balloons nice and round by not over-inflating them and I smack the top of each before I knot it, which forces the bottom to round out by putting pressure on the top. I have various other column and arch videos that demonstrate differently sized balloons inflated to different sizes but all ending up as quads, so check those out for different visual perspective. Thanks for your question!

When connecting and binding quads, you want to push down on the top-most quad as you wind it on to the others. It will take a bit of practice. If you tie them together too tightly the rounded of the balloons will be distorted, so keep an eye on the shape of your balloons while building a column. The balloons should retain their round shape (not too tight) but should still be very much bound to each other without gaps (not too loose). Also, make sure your quads intersect SNUGLY. Sometimes, the balloons don’t interlock precisely so some slight adjustments will need to be made with each quad. I promise, however, that once you get this process down, you can make columns and arches with relative ease -whenever you please.

@@BalloonSage thank you for the great i formation

Wonderful

You are so welcome!

2 Marbles you are the first person to ever identify where I like to film. Thank you for watching!

I knew it wasn’t my imagination haha

Thank you!

Awesome!

Good luck! Any questions - just ask

How did it turn out ? :)

Haha thanks!

So glad you enjoyed the vid!

Thank you!

Ha - thanks!

Thanks!

I’m so glad you liked it!

You’re welcome!!!!

I inflate all of my balloons the night before, store them overnight in large airtight plastic bags, and then construct the decoration itself the same day of event. This ensures the absolute best quality luster and shine on the balloons and a low probability of inadvertent popping and/or deflation. I personally recommend assembling as close to an event as possible as the balloons begin to take on a muted, grungy and clouded appearance with continued exposure to open air. If I have a lot of work to do the day of an event, I will straight up construct everything the night before and be out the door in the morning feeling breezy and unstressed for the day. Thank you for your question!

Thank you for checking out my video.

Hi. You’re welcome!!!

I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Hi there! I usually use these for indoor events, but my friend Tanya at AskMeForABalloon has many column ideas meant specifically for outdoor events. Check out her awesome videos! Thank you for watching.

Thanks for watching!

Yes to the first question. As for the second, you could technically construct a pole and base plate but I generally like to avoid that column construction method. You could make the bottom quad extra big and make a sand/sugar weight which could be much heavier without throwing off the column's balance. Here is a link to a sand weight on my friend Tanya's channel : m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3JmVRI0c0lY.html

thank you!!!

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thank you - this is one of my favorite vids.

Thank you so much

Balloon Sage I made the center pieces for my sons birthday for today they look amazing thanks so much for you videos

Glad you like it. Thanks for watching.

Thank you! This one was fun to make.

I’m so glad! =)

Eek! I am not sure, as I made this vid before I would actually size the balloon’s circumferences. As long as each measurement is equal, you should be able to pull this off. Thank you.

gracias Claudia

Oh - fabulous! Thank you so much.

Hi! I'm glad most of my clients don't know about my videos either, haha. However, there never seems to be a shortage of folks who are happy to spend cash for an instant and fabulous solution. Thank you for asking how I am - I have an eBay business that takes up more time these days. I've started getting into daily cardio and weight training so I fit filming in when it feels right. I still really care about this channel and won't stop posting content. I hope everything is splendid with you and thank you for supporting my videos.

🤣🤣🤣

That’s the type of very subtle criticism that will echo in my head far more effectively than someone disliking it entirely. I guess I really can’t help but ham it up when I’m making these things, haha. Thank you for your unique comment.

Thanks, Marcia!

Thanks Alicia!

Haha, I believe the columns are about 48” to 58” inches - it just depends on how much you inflate the balloons. Around 4 to 5 feet sounds about right. I am 6 feet tall.

@@BalloonSage Awesome, Thank you. And I guessed your height accurately. 😁
