I am sure you have seen these around blog land before. The Balloon Wreath. I fell in love with them as soon as I saw them. They are a perfect way to customize any special occasion and they are a wonderful way to greet your guest at the door. They are so fun! I decided to take a stab at making one for Colleen's baby shower last month. The color theme was grey/orange/yellow.
The wreath went from this...
to this...
to the finished product.
I forgot to tie a nice ribbon on it to hang it and remember half way to the shower so I had to make the best of what I had. I worked here and there on the wreath for 2 days and really enjoyed making it. I can't wait to make one for Mason's first birthday!
Oh one side note: I used A TON of balloons to make it really full looking.
You can find a complete tutorial
here.
Have you made a balloon wreath before? Or perhaps a ribbon wreath?

Turned out so cute! Love it!
When you pin the balloons on the wreath, do you pin them in the same direction? Also, do you alternate the colors to create the all over color scheme of the 4 colors?
Beautiful wreath! My 30th Birthday is coming up and having a party and thought to make a wreath for the door. Then I stumbled on the balloon wreath idea I've been seeing a lot of while searching for 'birthday wreath'.
Lynnette,
I pinned the balloons is all different directions. Also, I mixed all the balloons together and just pinned whatever balloon I happened to pick up so there was no rhyme or reason to the ballooon placement!
Can't wait to see your wreath!
Finished my balloon wreath and only have to attach the ribbon. How would I be able to show you a photo of the finished product? I'm very happy with the results, too cute.
