Graduation Party Decorations, Congrats Grad Balloons for 2023 Graduation Party Supplies,12 pcs Class Blue Balloons, 17 Inch

I tried tying the ribbon on the balloon and the balloon ripped! I also used the sticky thing’s that came with them and I lost 2 balloons due to the ribbon coming unstuck from the balloon!

There are 12 graduation balloons in this set. These are very nice balloons. You can have them filled with helium or you can use the small straw to fill them yourself. They also come with ribbon so you can tie that on to them for decoration. They are very nice looking balloons.

Simple balloons, looking forward to using these to celebrate my Kids graduation!

2023-02-25. 17 Foil Balloons - 2023 Graduation (Blue). Previously I ordered a party decoration kit that was pretty comprehensive and included just about everything you could think of, a large wall banner (backdrop), tablecloth, balloons, tape, balloon ribbons, balloon adhesive, cake topper, and cupcake toppers. But what it was missing were these larger foil balloons so I decided to give these a try since it matched my color theme. These foil balloons are nice and large (comparable) to what you would find at brick and mortar retail outlets and come in a pack of 12. Similar to the other kit I ordered, it also comes with a couple of rolls of ribbon, some glue points (to stick these to each other) and an inflating straw. I found that the sticky dots (glue points) were pretty good, but I had only inflated these with air and when I had put them up with the other balloons, it just didnt seem right. In the end, I deemed that these are best used as freestanding balloons. I purchased a small helium tank and filled the rest of the foil balloons with them. I then weighted them down and let them float freestanding.... much better... These balloons retail for $11.00 or 92 cents apiece, and when you consider the cost of purchasing a helium tank which will run you about $50 (enough to fill about 27 balloons (17), the cost goes way up to about $2.25 apiece. The foil balloons themselves are of the same quality as you get with brick and mortar purchases and the helium lasted about 2 weeks. I get that foil balloons are more expensive than their rubber and latex counterparts, but Im not sure they should be marked up this much; after all, how can the retail stores sell them for $1.25 apiece if the cost of both the balloon and helium are this expensive. In the end, if youre looking for helium filled foil balloons, I think its much more economical to just go and purchase them pre-filled. FYI: 17 foil balloons use up about 0.4 cu ft of helium, so you can do the math yourself to see how much it would cost you to fill these up yourself. Overall, Im still giving these balloons full marks. Theyre of the same quality as you get at the retail stores and it would not be a fair assessment to punish this review because of the much higher costs associated with filling them up with helium.

Nice balloons I will be using these when my niece graduates from high school. I got the blue color since that’s her school color. Great for the price. Seems pretty easy to inflate they come with round glue dots to stick to the wall.

I am using these for my sons graduation party in June. I inflated one already to make sure they would work and they are great! Of course, without helium, they wont float, but I am going to use plastic sticks/rods with them and use them on the centerpieces...they will be great. But they are quite large! Im glad, as they will make a big statement, but just be aware. Get out your tape measure and know what 17 looks like!!

These balloons were blown up over 48 hours ago and are still inflated and floating. They really added a festive note to our graduation celebration.

Perfect for my project and great quality

We have one of those portable helium tanks you can buy at party stores, so getting a bunch of balloons for an upcoming party made sense! All of these balloons are basically the same; quality problems are fairly rare (these manufacturers have the process down). A set of identical baloons with two spools of color-matched ribbon; the standard little neck flap at the bottom to seal and tie once filled, nice color and appear exactly as they do in the ad.

These balloons are easy to inflate with the included straw (and deflate too). And if you arent planning on filling with helium, there are two loops on top for a string to go through and hang from. The loops arent shown in the product photos or description, so they were a nice surprise. So they can be displayed in three ways: 1) filled with helium and tied to something with the included ribbon, 2) filled with air and stuck to a wall with the included glue posts, or 3) filled with air and strung along a line between two posts, lamps, etc. Cant wait to use them for the upcoming graduation season.
