Rainbow-colored balloon arch
Here’s how to make a rainbow balloon arch without any complicated prep like helium gas or support poles.
Prepare “quick link” balloons, which have connection points on the top and bottom.
To keep balloon sizes consistent, it’s helpful to remember how many pumps you used when inflating each one.
After linking the colors in rainbow order, attach clusters of four cloud-shaped white balloons at both ends and add weights.
To refine the shape, insert small clusters of four white balloons between the colored balloons.
And you’re done!
balloon art
Balloons are a familiar item for children, since they’re often used for play at daycare and preschool.
This idea involves inflating a large number of balloons and linking them together to create decorations.
The big appeal is that clustering the balloons creates a three-dimensional look and a luxurious atmosphere.
Using balloons of various sizes is a key point for enhancing the sense of depth.
It’s fun to display them as a single cluster, but arranging balloons around a main decoration after placing it also makes for a festive look.

A hot air balloon made with shoji paper and balloons
The balloon wall decoration, which is also recommended for celebrating new beginnings, has a three-dimensional look and is perfect for a kindergarten graduation ceremony.
Prepare balloons, shoji paper, paint, string, and an empty container.
Before you start, paint your preferred patterns on the shoji paper and let it dry.
Inflate a balloon to the size you want your hot air balloon to be, then stick the cut shoji paper onto the balloon.
When attaching the pieces, use glue diluted with water, and be sure to smooth the paper as you go so it doesn’t wrinkle.
Once you’ve covered it, let it dry for 2–3 days.
When it’s completely dry, pop the balloon inside, attach a basket made from string and the empty container, and your hot air balloon is complete.
Give it a try!
Rainbow made of balloons
Three-dimensional and festive! Let me introduce an idea for making a rainbow out of balloons.
You’ll need four long balloons in each color, eight round white balloons, 5 mm masking tape, a pump, and scissors.
It’s a cute rainbow-and-cloud design perfect for sending off the kids.
The video also shows how to make the sun and flowers, so be sure to check that out! Depending on the wall where you’ll attach the balloons, it’s a good idea to use painter’s tape or similar.
Give it a try!
Cherry blossoms made with balloon art
When it comes to decorations kids love, balloons are a must! How about making cherry blossoms out of balloons and displaying them on the wall? In this idea, each lock twist is treated as a single petal, and five are made to form a cherry blossom.
By twisting a lock twist and slightly revealing the back side of the balloon to the front, it gives a more cherry-blossom-like look.
Make five small balls with a yellow balloon and place them in the center of the petals to complete the blossom! There are also instructions on how to make the tree branches, so feel free to use them as a reference and give it a try.
In conclusion
We introduced balloon wall decorations to brighten up the venue for the graduation ceremony.
From warm, handmade ideas using marbling and felt to balloon garlands and hanging rainbow decorations, there are so many ways to expand your décor options.
If you incorporate crafts made together with the children, it will become a special space full of lasting memories.
Make this celebratory graduation day shine with beautiful decorations.
