First thing first, create the the balloon cloud! Check out our previous blog to learn how to make your own stunning balloon cloud. Again, don’t be intimidated by its beautiful look! It’s actually an easy and fun DIY project and doesn’t require super craft skills! 

When choosing the flowers and greeneries for the floral balloon cloud, we recommend using light-weighted flowers & greens in order to keep the balloon cloud the original organic shape. For flowers, we used a combination of peony and carnation in pale pink to create some variety but pretty flowers like lisianthus, rose, and buttercup would also work great as well if they’re in season. As for greenery, long vine greens like Italian ruscus, silver dollar eucalyptus, live bay leaf, or fresh olive leaf are great since they’ll give that drape-y, dreamy vibes to your balloon garland. We got our flowers from our florist in the area but your local farmer’s market, Trader Joe’s or grocery store are all great places to get fresh, inexpensive flowers.

To prepare the flowers, we trimmed the stems and left about 8-9 inches for each stem in order to leave some room for each of them to be attached to the balloon cloud. For the greenery, they can be a little shorter, about 6 inches each. To make sure the flowers and the greens stay fresh, put them in a vase with water as you prep.

Simply insert each of the stem in the gap of the balloons and make sure they stay up. We started with the flowers first and then filled in with the greens. There’s really no right or wrong order to attach the flowers/greens to the balloon cloud. You can totally play around and have some fun in making the look that you love!
