Small letter balloons make charming cake toppers. It’s a great way to turn a simple cake into a great tool for your celebration. Plus, you can purchase a generic cake that way and make it look unique and fun with a simple topper.

2. Create the Perfect Photo Booth Props

Balloons are a great way to create a fun photo booth. Whether you use a balloon garland or spell out a message using letter balloons, you’ll have a memorable way to capture fun photos and give your guests the perfect social media images. 

Guests can pose with the balloons, or you can just use them as the backdrop for your photo booth. Spell out simple messages like “hooray” or “oh baby” for a baby shower. You can get balloons in various sizes to meet space and size requirements. If you have a longer message, you might consider smaller letters so that you can read the full message without standing too far back from the balloons.

3. Decorate Your Mantel with a Letter Balloon Message

The mantel can be the perfect place to spell out a message for your party guests. It’s subtle yet can make this area of your home or event space more festive. Remove family photos or standard wreaths to prepare for your party. 

Add in other balloons around the sign to create a party atmosphere. Or bring in flowers or other party decorations to make the space feel fun and inviting.

4. Make the Buffet Table an Attractive Focal Point

The buffet table is an attraction at a party no matter what as guests can’t wait to see what’s on the menu and begin sampling the fare. But you can make this area of the room especially attractive with letter or number balloons.

Build a backdrop behind the buffet table that matches your party’s theme. And if it’s a big birthday party celebrating a milestone, add in number balloons for sweet 16, flirty 30 or over-the-hill 40.
