Foil Balloons - Party Planner's Man Friday by Raymond Plona

Balloons are a strict yes for any party - they are loved equally by children and adults alike and commemorate birthdays as nothing does. They are a party planner's Man Friday as they accentuate colour themes, used as party games, or arranged like works of art.

Party balloons may utilize any of the following fluids:

-Normal air, which is either pumped in with a bicycle, foot or electric pump. All this does is inflate the balloon to its required shape and size.

-Helium gas can also be used to inflate balloons. This is a very light gas and causes the helium-filled balloon to rise up. This uplifts the mood of all the spectators young or old.

-Water is used as another option to fluids inflating balloons - water balloons are used for fun and frolic more than decoration.

The most popular material used to fabricate balloons is latex or rubber. These are cheaper, but have a high rate of deflation and bursting - they barely last beyond 24 hours. An alternative to these is the foil balloon. Foil balloons are made of thin plastic and have a smoother, glossier finish. They also are more resilient than latex and last much longer. They, however, come expensive for all their virtues.

Foil balloons are more popular at parties and gatherings, as they look exceedingly attractive. They can be played with, held and remembered as mementos. Children in particular adore them as long as they have them in their possession - which is a long time!

Foil balloons have been designed to custom-fit all possible occasions. Whatever be your party theme, a suitable foil balloon is sure to be found.

Even religious parties can have specially crafted foil balloons. Religious themed foil balloons are available in various designs to suit the different religious celebrations, some of which are:
-A christening or baptism - often, these come as beautifully designed balloons in soft, pretty shades. They can be made in the shapes of a cross, teddy bear with a bib or angel. More grown-up children or teenagers may have their crosses in silver or gold colors.

-Confirmation ceremony balloons - These occasions can be suitably decorated with balloons shaped like crosses or round coins bearing crosses inside.


-Christmas balloons - these are balloons of extra fun and pleasure. Shaped like the Christmas tree or the Baby Jesus - there is no upper limit to their creativity.

-Easter Balloons - these are characterized by the egg-shaped balloons or those foil balloons that feature Jesus, angels or the holy cross for the more conventional.

-Hanukkah - the Jewish celebration is commonly conservative in its celebration approach but in more urban families with children, foil balloons may be ordered to carry designs of the oil lamp. As this is a week-long celebration, these balloons make their rare appearance only on the last night.

First birthdays are moments of great importance for child and parents alike. They are occasions celebrated often with great elan. And what better way to do so with the attractively designed first birthday foil balloons. The event is a good place to showcase the longevity and high-gloss of the foil balloons - a point that balloon manufacturers well know and utilize.

Today, first birthday foil balloons come in so many varied designs, you will be spoil for choice. The most popular, naturally, is the foil balloon that is shaped like the number 1. These can be pink or blue - to suit the birthday girl or boy - and are usually filled with helium to be strung up or on a plastic holder. Other first birthday foil balloons are heart-shaped with flowers or teddy bears (and the inseparable number 1, but of course) while some others will feature familiar children characters like Big Bird and Ernie from Sesame Street, Barney and Baby Bop, Pooh or Strawberry Shortcake.
