Supplies You Need:
- 30 to 36″ round balloons. Get the balloons blown up at your local party store, but make sure you can fit them in your car!
- Tissue paper and/or fabric in 3 to 4 different colors. The fabric should be light weight so it doesn’t weigh the balloons down.
- Scissors
- Lace Ribbon
- Optional: Rosette for the top.
How to make DIY Fringe Balloons
Directions:
- Start by cutting your lace ribbon in a strip about 5 to 6 inches long. This will take the place of the ribbon holding the balloon.
- Cut the fabric into rectangles approximately 1 x 1.5 inches. If you’re using tissue paper, there is no need to cut. Just fold the sheets in half lengthwise.
- Cut strips in the fabric/tissue paper leaving approximately 1.5 inches on the top uncut.
- Tie a piece of lace or ribbon around the center of the fringe.
- Fold the fabric/tissue paper in half, so the ribbon is on the left side. Roll it up and then wrap the lace around the top and tie it in a knot. Make sure to leave a few inches of ribbon free to attach the balloon.
- Tie your pieces of fringe onto the lace handle starting at the top. It looks best to vary the color of the fringe.
- Optional: Place a rosette at the top directly under the balloon.
