Instructions

  • Inflate the balloon, then set it onto a vase or cup (as a stand) so it's easier to work with.
  • Add Mod Podge to the top half of the balloon with a sponge brush, then sprinkle confetti all over. Remove the balloon from the vase and hold it to add the confetti on the sides.

  • Let dry and add another coat of glue and confetti. Repeat. When you feel like the confetti is thick enough, let dry for a final time.
  • Add several coats of Mod Podge until you achieve a thick coat (about 3 - 4 coats; this is for stability). Let it dry for 8 - 10 hours.
  • Turn your balloon and pop it with a needle, I couldn't do this because I've always been afraid of the noise. Get a little to help if you need.

  • Trim the edges with scissors to even out. If you need to touch up with Mod Podge, do it at this time and let dry.
