With Christmas and the holiday season only a matter of a few weeks away, I thought that I would take this opportunity to rekindle some of the seasonal designs that I and other fellow balloon artists have made over the years. Many of these designs have been documented in earlier blogs, so to make it a little easier for you to find, I will add a direct link with each of the designs that are featured. In most instances, there is a step-by-step recipe included within the blog!
I love this festive balloon wall! We created this using 40" Emerald Green Starpoints and 27" Lime Green Taper Microfoil® Balloons. We were unable to use any latex at this event, so we used 9" Ruby Red solid-colour round Microfoil Balloons at each of the centre points to make it look like holly leaves. Filled with air, this design can easily be suspended.
These Christmas presents were great fun to make too!
There are many different designs and recipes to make a balloon Christmas tree. I made the trees below for an event that I decorated last year. This design was kindly shared by Sean O'Kelly, of Balloon Decor, Victoria, Australia.
I love this winter centrepiece design. The 22" Dazzling Snowflakes is definitely one of my favourite seasonal balloons!
Standing over 4' tall, this makes a truly elegant centrepiece for any festive occasion.

'Let it Snow' centrepiece.
Who doesn't love a Snowman? This original design was made as a consequence of being stuck at home (literally) due to the heavy snow! I decided that it would be cool to make some "funky" balloon snowmen and put them in my garden!

This pretty Christmas candle was one of those designs that I had the sudden urge to make a few years ago! If you would like to find out how to make this design, click on the link: Christmas Candle
Learning how to make this Christmas Wreath was a challenge - working out the size of balloons to use to create the perfect curve - but it was worth the effort!

And finally, don't forget that the Qualatex® Christmas Business Booster is packed with some great ideas!
I hope that this has helped some of you to find that last minute inspiration!
Happy Ballooning!
