- 64 balloons of varying sizes - strong fishing line - electric balloon pump - command hooks - optional: glue dots

Blow up your balloons. Again, I use varying sizes and colors. You’ll want about the same amount in small and medium balloons and then a few large balloons.

After I blow them up and before I tie them off, I push them up against my body as I hold the opening and let a little bit of air out. This gives me a longer ‘tail’ to work with

Next, we’ll tie our balloons together. I take a medium balloon and a large balloon and tie them together. Then, take a medium balloon and a small balloon and tie those together. Basically, you’ll want to tie random sizes together in groupings of two.

You’ll take your first quad of balloons and fishing line and tie them on. Make sure to leave around a yard of fishing line on the end so you can tie it up. You’ll loop the fishing line around one of the balloons on the quad and tie it twice.

Next, you’ll take your second quad of balloons and push them as closely to the first quad as possible. When I say close, I mean really push them close (it will almost feel like you’re going to pop them!). Then, you’ll loop the fishing line around one balloon and push up tightly.

Use glue dots to add in extra small balloons if desired. You can also use scotch tape or a low temp glue gun. The low temp glue gun works really well and lasts the longest!

For the finishing look, you can tie your balloon garland to a command hook, let the end hang, or fasten the other end to another command hook. It really just depends on the look you’re going for!
