The Best Balloons for a DIY Balloon Arch

There's really no hard and fast rule when making balloon arches. You can use foil, latex, and even confetti balloons or mix and match all three to create a unique and eye-catching display. Your creativity is the limit.

If you're not sure what to use, here's a quick guide:

• Foil Balloons: Shiny, durable, and available in fun shapes and themes, foil balloons add a polished touch to any arch. They're ideal for creating statement pieces, adding contrast to matte latex balloons, and making your arch last longer as they hold air for extended periods.
• Latex Balloons: Flexible and available in endless colours, latex balloons are perfect for creating organic and classic arches.
• Confetti Balloons: These transparent balloons filled with confetti bring a fun, playful element. Use them to add sparkle and texture, create eye-catching focal points, or mix with solid-coloured balloons for extra flair.

How to Make a DIY Balloon Arch

Creating your own balloon arch is easier than you think. To get started, you'll need these:

• Balloon arch kit (or balloons, fishing line, and balloon tape)
• Balloon pump (electric or manual)
• Command hooks, a sturdy frame, or a balloon stand for support
• Adhesive dots or glue for layering

Now, here's a step-by-step guide to making a DIY balloon arch:

1. Plan Your Design: Choose your colours and balloon sizes to match your theme.
2. Blow Up the Balloons: Use a pump or helium tank to inflate balloons to different sizes for a dynamic look.
3. Attach Balloons to the Tape or Frame: Thread balloons through the balloon tape holes or tie them onto a fishing line.
4. Build the Arch: Secure one end of the arch to a command hook or frame, then shape it as desired.
5. Fill in Gaps: Use adhesive dots to attach smaller balloons and confetti balloons for extra depth.
6. Secure Everything: Double-check that your arch is stable, especially if it's outdoors.

Spotlight also offers balloon inflation services to make DIY balloon arches easier. For more convenience, you can pick up or rent a helium tank to effortlessly inflate balloons at home.
