How to Hang Your Garland
Step 1: Find Your Anchor Points
Decide where you would like to hang your garland, then have a friend or family member hold the garland up to determine where your first wall hook will be placed. If you are party prepping on your own, you can do this step yourself – use your left hand to hold the balloon garland, and your right hand to mark out the spot for your wall hook.
If you already have an existing anchor point (railing, banister, hooks) and do not need command hooks, simply use the provided hanging materials to secure the garland. We recommend you tie the garland in at least 2 places.
If you don't have an established anchor point: Use the command hook/s provided which includes a balloon knot and loop. Make sure to apply pressure to your command hook for at least 10 seconds before removing your hand to properly adhere.
Step 2: Attaching Your Balloons
Stretch the balloon loop on the command hook to the closest balloon. You may need someone to help hold the garland in place.
​
Once the first end of your balloon garland has been hung securely, hold up the rest of your balloon garland against the wall to form your desired shape.
Step 3: Finish & Finesse
Now that your garland is hung you get to finesse! The mini balloons are movable so make sure they are facing frontward. Play around with them and Voila you're done! Don’t forget to post and tag us!

Balloon Care
Let's face it Balloons are delicate, but at Up In the Air Balloons we use only the highest quality balloons/materials which are 100% Biodegradable. Even still, some may pop or deflate sooner than anticipated, and we cannot guarantee life span of balloons once delivered or installed. Environmental factors including weather (wind, rain, temperature fluctuations), different surfaces, foliage, and human tampering can effect lifespan. We will replace any balloons that pop during delivery or install.
Tips for Longer Lasting Balloons:
1. Balloon Garlands installed indoors in a temperature controlled environment will last weeks!
​
2. If outdoor install is desired please keep in mind where the sun hits on or around that location. Outdoor Balloon Garlands are best installed on covered areas
​
3. Not sure where to put your balloon arrangements? That's ok we do offer onsite consultations or send us a photo/video of your space to better assist you.
