Ginger RayRose Gold DIY Balloon Arch Kit Party Decorations 70 Assorted Pack, 8 x 12 Inch

GORGEOUS! This Rose Gold Balloon Arch for my daughter's Bridal Shower was the centerpiece of a magical event. Guests' mouths dropped at the "Gift Seat" area and are still gushing over it almost a week later.Yes, it takes a little effort and time to "build it", but can one honestly expect it to just pop out of the box ready to go? My senior Mother-in-Law blew up the balloons the night prior while watching TV, we then covered the pile with light blankets so the cats wouldn't get to them overnight LOL, then set up the arch the next morning. I would say 2 hours total, with one person blowing and another setting up the arch.We manually blew up most of them, but hubby is a tool guy, and we used our air compressor with balloon attachment for the really small ones. But that was only to try out that method. You DO NOT NEED to do anything special to blow up the balloons. Don't waste your money on a helium tank - trust me, you do NOT want to try and assemble anything with helium balloons!Manually blown balloons will stay beautiful and full for plenty of time. We sadly had to pop ours 2 days later, so I don't know how long they would have lasted.I completely disagree with another review that complained of the gold "confetti" not spreading out inside the balloon as pictured. Ours did!PSA: When popping/deflating, I recommend putting those filled balloons inside a trash bag, THEN popping them. This will keep the confetti pieces contained in the bag. You're welcome. ;-)Instructions are simple, but here's what we did: Start with the smaller balloons in the tape holes, get a little bigger as you go up the tape. This will create a base for the larger balloons, which then attach easily to the smaller ones using the adhesive dots. You MIGHT need some additional tape depending on other adornments you may wish to add. (There is also a small plastic tube in the kit, which is for manual inflation of the Mylars). You will also obviously need to attach the arch to your wall, or whatever structure it will be going on. We used simple nails in the wall and tied twine from the tape to nails once the balloon arch was ready. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS and keep about a foot of the tape empty; you will need it when you attach the finished arch.Can't say enough about this FABULOUS item!Love, love, love!!

This did look absolutely fantastic. My balloon pump didn’t work so I blew them all up myself! Took a few hours, easy to do yet so effective. Photos don’t do it justice, I had a video but too large to upload. Brilliant, made my daughters 18th Birthday very special. Family thought I’d hired someone to do it all for me. Very pleased. 🙂

Be aware it’s just the balloons you get which is fine. The picture has other items in it. They are really fiddly to put together but really look amazing when put up. They also stayed up for the entire time of the event with no sagging. I would purchase again but be aware balloons only. I got quite a few items from Ginger Ray and they are worth the extra money as the quality is really good.

Excellent product, way to assemble, balloons are of very good quality and great value for money. Even after 3 weeks the balloons have kept the shape. Will definitely use this company again

These balloons were lovely! My friend was very happy with them for her baby shower. Could of done with more of a variety of rose gold. But overall quality was fantastic. Thank you

Great value for money, they are easy to blow up and assemble into an arch. Once up they look great and they lasted for ages afterwards too. Would definitely buy again.
