Should you don’t have a helper, lay the rod flat on the bottom, add all the balloons, then place it into the clamps.

Step 5: At this level, you’ll most likely wish to blow up extra balloons. It takes greater than you assume it would. LOL. However when you’re pleased with the look of your arch, tape the rods to the clamps with items of black Duck Tape so it received’t transfer in the course of the get together, simply in case.

Doesn’t it look so nice?! I’m actually happy with the large influence it had. The home felt SO festive and prepared for an enormous get together. I like that!
