I wrote a post not too long ago on how to make a baby shower balloon rattle but I couldn’t find the balloons that have a hole in the center to use for the collar of the rattle anywhere…until now.
Balloon Flowers
These colorful little gem balloons
However, you can also use them alone, strung together with twisting balloons for a colorful balloon garland, with helium as floating Lifesaver-like balloons (I don’t know why they remind me of Lifesavers but they do), or for balloon flowers with a twisting balloon through the hole for the flower center, the stem and leaves.
The hole in the center of the balloon presents some unique options for using these in balloon centerpieces, too. In fact, a simple bunch of these with one in every color, inflated with helium and weighted down in a white vase with a bright red ribbon would look bright and cheery in the center of the table.
