Carter’s 2nd birthday is just around the corner so I slowly started to work on some party prep for his special day.  I’ve always loved the balloon in a balloon, but have never tried to do it myself, until now.  Surprisingly, it was quite simple and I will show you how it was done below.

Supplies Needed// Tissue paper, ribbon, scissors, clear balloons, coloured balloons and a helium tank (not shown here).

Step 1 // First make your confetti by stacking your tissue paper one on top of another and cut out approximately 1 inch wide strips. Once you have your 1 inch wide strips, cut them into bits of confetti.

Step 2 // Stuff some confetti into one clear balloon. I didn’t use a funnel or anything, just jammed them in with my finger.

Step 3 // Now take coloured balloon and insert a small stick into it. I used a coffee stirring stick.  This will help you insert the coloured balloon into the clear balloon.

Step 4 // Bring out your helium tank. I get mine from Costco, but you can find it at most craft and party supplies stores.

Step 5 // Insert the nozzle into the coloured balloon and blow it up to about a 7 inch wide balloon then tie a knot on it.

    Hey, can you please let me know the sizes of both balloons? Would 12″ be appropriate for the clear one or would it need to be bigger?

    Thanks

Copyright © 2023 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
