Without a doubt the coolest thing I learned this year at ballooniversity (www.ballooniversity.com) was how to make the world’s smallest parade float. Here’s how it works: You start with a remote control toy car. Then, you cover every part except the bottom with chicken wire (Use leather gloves so you don’t get cut!). The next step is to cover all of the chicken wire with miniature air-filled balloons. Finally, you create and attach a small balloon sculpture or just a foil shape balloon to fit the parade theme……and off you go.
I hope to apply this to my next parade decor job which will be this fall. I intend to have a fleet of six miniature parade floats with a team of six human remote control operators. The team will train to move in formation in the parade route and to “interact” with the crowd. To view some of our parade balloon decor please visit: www.ballroomballoons.com/gallery.html.

Before there was Ballroom Balloons, I got my start in the industry by doing singing telegrams. And, I still do them! Today, I was Tim the Grim Reaper for a gentleman’s 50th birthday party in Bowie, MD. It was at Tia’s Restaurant; and, Ken, the “victim” got the full treatment to the delight of his employees from Lasting Impressions, a fine landscaping company in Upper Marlboro. To learn more about singing telegrams and our humble beginnings, please visit www.ballroomballoons.com/singingtelegrams.html and www.ballroomballoons.com/about.html.
Until next time….
Enjoy,
Stan
