Introduction
Throwing a baseball-themed party? Add some decoration with this super simple baseball balloon garland! All you need is some string, balloons, and a little bit of patience.
What You’ll Need
-A pack of multi-colored balloons
-Scissors
-Tape
-A baseball or other round object to trace around (optional)
-Ruler or measuring tape (optional)
Instructions:
1. Inflate your balloons. You can use a pump or blow them up by mouth. If you’re using a pump, insert the end of the balloon into the nozzle and hold it there while you pump. If you’re blowing them up by mouth, insert the end of the balloon into your mouth and exhale until it’s about three-quarters full. Tie off the end of the balloon to keep the air in. Repeat with all of your balloons.
2.Cut a piece of tape that’s about 12 inches long. Stick one end of the tape to the center of one balloon, then stick the other end to the center of another balloon so that they’re attached at their centers. Repeat with all of your balloons, until they’re all attached in a long line.
3. Hang up your garland! You can drape it over a doorframe, across a wall, or anywhere else you’d like to decorate.
Step One: Inflate the Balloons
The first step to making a baseball balloon garland is to inflate the balloons. You will need a pump to do this, and it is best to use a balloon pump rather than a regular air pump Once the balloons are inflated, tie them off with string or ribbon.
Step Two: Cut the Twine
Next, you will need to cut the twine into lengths that are about two feet long This can be done with a pair of scissors or a knife. Once the twine is cut, tie it around the neck of each balloon, making sure to leave enough slack so that the balloon can move freely on the twine.
Step Three: Hang the Balloons
Now it is time to start hanging the balloons. The best way to do this is by tying the end of the twine onto something like a clothesline or a banister. Start by hanging the balloon in the middle of the twine, then work your way outwards towards each end. Make sure that all of the knots are secure before moving on.
Step Four: Add Extra Decorations (Optional)
Once all of the balloons are hung, you can add extra decorations if you like. This could include things like streamers, ribbons, confetti, or anything else you can think of. If you are using helium-filled balloons, you may also want to add weight to the bottom of each one so that they don’t float away.
Step Two: Cut the Tails Off the Balloons
The next step is to cut the tails off the balloons. You will need a sharp knife for this, so be careful! Make sure to cut evenly so that all of the balloons are the same size.
After you have cut the tails off, you will need to inflate the balloons. You can do this with a pump or by blowing them up yourself. Once they are inflated, tie them off with a knot.
Step Three: Make the Garland Base
To make the garland base, you will need:
-One 12-inch round balloon
-One 6-inch round balloon
-Two 3-foot long pieces of string
-A black Sharpie marker
Start by inflating the 12-inch balloon to about halfway. Tie off the end, leaving a long tail of string. Then, take the Sharpie and draw a line around the circumference of the balloon, about 1 inch from the tied end. Cut along this line. You should now have a ring of about 11 inches in diameter.
Next, inflate the 6-inch balloon and tie it off, also leaving a long tail of string. Cut this balloon in half so that you have two 3-inch balloons. These will be used as purls in your garland.
To finish assembling your garland base, take one piece of string and thread it through the ring of the 12-inch balloon, leaving about a 6-inch tail. Then, thread one of the 3-inch balloons onto the string, followed by another piece of string (again leaving a 6-inch tail). Finally, thread on the other 3-inch balloon. You should now have four tails of string hanging down from your garland base – two attached to each side of the ring.
Step Four: Tie the Balloons to the Garland
Tie the balloons to the garland using a simple knot. Make sure that the balloons are tied securely, but leave enough slack so that they can move slightly.
Step Five: Hang the Garland
To hang the garland, start by finding a place to tape the end of the string or fishing line. We recommend using painter’s tape as it won’t damage your walls and it’s easy to remove. Once the end is taped securely, start stretching out the garland and hanging it along your wall. You can make any design you want with the garland – we just did a simple zig-zag pattern. Once you’re happy with the design, use tape to secure any loose ends.
Tips and Tricks
n general, roasts fall into one of four color categories — light, medium, medium-dark and dark.
Many consumers assume that the strong, rich flavor of darker roasts indicates a higher level of caffeine, but the truth is that light roasts actually have a slightly higher concentration. The perfect roast is a personal choice that is sometimes influenced by national preference or geographic location. Within the four color categories, you are likely to find common roasts as listed below. It’s a good idea to ask before you buy. There can be a world of difference between roasts.
Light roasts
Light brown in color, this roast is generally preferred for milder coffee varieties. There will be no oil on the surface of these beans because they are not roasted long enough for the oils to break through to the surface.
-Light City
-Half City
-Cinnamon
Medium roasts
