INTRODUCTION
This design is very long lasting since the balloons are
all filled with air. For precision-sized balloons that are
filled fast and perfect every time, I prefer to use a
Conwin Precision Inflator with nitrogen. The Duplicator
2 or Dual Split Second Sizer works with latex and foils
and is perfect with helium or nitrogen.
APPLICATIONS
To fill big spaces, you can place four
mobiles at all four points above a dance floor.
Be sure to adjust the ribbon lengths according
to your ceiling height. And, you can create beautiful
dance floor decor by adding Link-O-Loons to join the
mobiles for a perfectly defined dance floor that won't trip
up the guests with base plates, poles, etc. This design adapts
easily for a variety of themes. For instance, for New Years Eve,
baby messages for birth theme displays, birthday designs and more.
MATERIALS & EQUIPMENT
- Megaloon X Silver 102cm (40") Foil Shape
- Red 260 latex
- 28cm (11") crystal red round latex
- MagMover™ Ring Magnet
- Red Heart 46cm (18") Foil, Holographic
- 117cm (46") Foil Shape, Holographic
- Holographic curling ribbon
- MagMover™ Adhesive Hang Tabs
STEP BY STEP
- To begin, secure a MagMover™ Adhesive Hang-Tab in the center on both sides of the
Megaloon™ X and one each at all four ends of the Megaloon™. Add hang tabs at the top of each
of the remaining foils. Next, air-fill all of the foil balloons and set them aside. Fill two 28cm (11")
round red latex balloons and tie the necks together to form a duplet. Repeat and twist the two
duplets together at their necks to create a cluster.
- To assemble the design, tie a 260 to one of the hang tabs on the Megaloon™ X leaving
equal lengths of 260 tails. Tie the 28cm (11") cluster in place with the 260 tails and then a
MagMover™ Ring Magnet about 10cm (4”) from where the cluster is tied in place.
- Suspend the holographic shape foil from it’s top hang tab to a length of holographic curling
ribbon attached to the hang tab in the center of the Megaloon™ X. Measure and cut four
equal sections of ribbon and tie the ends of each to the hang tabs on the ends of the Megaloon™.
Tie each of the four 46cm (18") foil hearts to the four ribbons making sure they are suspended
evenly.
- To place the design on the ceiling, use a telescoping pole like the MagPole™ with a MagMover™
magnet at the end. Secure the design's Ring Magnet to the MagMover™ and attach it to a metal
point on the ceiling. Viola! A long lasting design that can be assembled days ahead, transported
and then quickly installed on site at your convenience.
