Inflate two balloons at once and tie them together right away. It's a waste of time to tie them individually first and than tie them together afterwards. You don't need fishing line for balloon columns. Most decorators will tell you to work with quads but I find that best and quickest method is to take two pairs in your hands, stand in front of the pole and hug it with balloons in your hands. Place front balloons over each other on the other side of the pole, then flip two hind balloons (those between you and the pole) over each other. This way the four balloons in the same raw will not fall apart since they are firmly wrapped around the pole. Cheers!

Theirs was quick easy and well described. Not too much talking and none of the unnecessary fluffiness. Straight tot the point! Can’t wait to try

Such a cool tip about underinflating the balloons!!! It’s gonna save me tomorrow when I’m setting up my friend’s grad party in 90 degree weather ☀️🤩

Great user friendly instructions. I work at a car dealership and decorate with balloons. I built tower base plates with metal pipe for extra durability. I will build short tower assemblies around 3 feet tall that will be put on the roof of a car, truck, or SUV. Also, a short tower could be placed in the bed of a pickup truck to help show it off. Just be sure to put adhesive felt bottoms onto the base plate, or put a small cotton cloth or towel underneath whenever the tower gets placed on a surface that cannot get scratched. Maybe I will add rollers on the bottom for heavy balloon towers for easy mobility, since this would allow untrained individuals to move the tower and be careful at the same time.
