Thank you! This is wonderful and I can't wait to use it at a Family Night at school. Could you tell me where to look in your videos to find what you use for table stands? I'd like to make some table arrangements, but need to know how to construct a base for them.
Thanks. Here are a couple of videos on how to make bases... ua-cam.com/video/hRVvcM7Ytz4/v-deo.html , ua-cam.com/video/ya9l8V83fhw/v-deo.html, ua-cam.com/video/FCmFemE6u0s/v-deo.html For this video I'm just using a water weight though. Here's how to do that.... ua-cam.com/video/I5CVCB6cyBI/v-deo.html
Thanks! Go to the Qualatex or Betallic websites to find a list of their distributors. That way you can find the closest one to you for easier shipping :~)
Oh my goodness. I have been doing like a marathon of all your tutorials. LOL You are just amazing. Can you tell me what you use to make your balloons so shiny? Thank you so, so very much
There are a number of products that you can use to keep the balloons shiny, but honestly I don't use any of them. The videos were made right after the balloons were unbagged, so they hadn't oxidized yet. If you put them in a bag after inflation, they won't oxidize until you take them out of the bag. In general I don't worry about them oxidizing though, as long as they all do it the same, then it just gives the balloons a velvety patina ;~)
How long do the balloons last? I need them to last for 5 days. My child’s class is doing an Ocean Program and us rooms Mom need to decorate on Monday but the program is on Friday.
The round balloons will last for 5 days, but I would recommend doing the 260s (long skinny balloons) the day before max. You could always put the round balloons in place to "hold the spot" and then add the long skinny balloons the morning of... :~)
Hi Sandi. Thanks for sharing. But could you add links to supplies used in your videos and website s that you refer us to? I tried to go to diyballoonartstore.com and it did not go thru. It said wrong website
Sorry, I closed that. Found that I did not enjoy fulfillment lol. Look on the Qualatex website for a list of their distributors to find the one closest to you. I'm in Southern California, so the suppliers I use the most are Balloon Merchant, Loftus, MSR, and Mayflower Balloons. They don't all carry the same things, so sometimes I have to get supplies from a couple of different places for the same job, but all of them are 1-3 days shipping for me, and that's the most important thing.
YES! I have an online balloon business bootcamp :~) I'm just about to start marketing for the next session. The date on the page hasn't been updated, but the rest of the info is correct.... www.BalloonExpertSchool.com :~)
check the betallic and qualatex websites, they offer workshops around the country periodically. Also check with your closest balloon distributor, they will also know about upcoming events in your area. :~)
oh ok would by any chance will that be before February 11th lol (That's when I am doing it) So far I have the idea of fishing wire to have the clear balloons linked to spread out. but adding helium balloons (fish) on in between each bubbles balloons.. I just would have to test it out.. I love your videos by the way.. !!! Thank you
I don't go back to the studio until March, so prob wouldn't make feb 11 deadline lol. You'll prob want to have a large all he balloon on the top of the bubble string- at least 16" and then work your way down in size. The 5" can be air-filled, but the rest should be he for best results. If you're using helium filled fish, you should use 16" balloons or the pieces on them will make it too heavy to float... Be sure to post pix after!! :~)
Sandi Masori Balloons I definitely will.. but I am having a hard time finding the long animal balloons.. do you know of somewhere online I can buy them or at least a store.. I need them before Saturday 11th.. the ones on amazon continues to pop while blowing them up :(
oh no, looks like I was too late on this one, sorry. But check out the Qualatex or Betallic websites they have distributor lists and you can find the closest one to you :~)
I also use a machine, but it may also have to do with the room that you're in. Maybe keep some static guard around and just spray around your area every once in a while if you're having a lot of problems with it. When I do the exploding balloons or the balloon poppers, I cut up a dryer sheet into little pieces and add it into the balloons as "confetti" to make sure that I don't get too much static building up inside the balloon. Sometimes it just comes down to some trial and error... :~)
Sorry about that, I have a lot of information to get out and am trying to keep it from being too long lol. If you get my books from Amazon the instructions are written out and may be easier to follow :~)
Perfect for that under the sea event. Thank you Sandi
Awesome seaweed and fish! Thank you!
I absolutely love this. I'd like to see a full wall
That's been on the list for a while, but keeps getting bumped due to time constraints. I'll try to make it a priority at the next big shoot :~)

Just love watching you create!
Awwww thank you!!! :~)
Wow!! Loved it
Un saludo desde Bogotá - Colombia.....muy hermoso todos tus proyectos
Gracias! :~)
Love this tutorial. If I want to put these as outside decoration, how should I go about it? I don't want them to pop or deflate.
try to avoid dark colors and keep your balloons good and squishy so there's room to expand :~)
Sandi you’re amazing🌺👍
Awwww thank you! :-)
Just started watching your videos. Love them. Where do you get your baloons. I'm having trouble finding a good variety of colors.
Thanks! Go to the Qualatex or Betallic websites to find a list of their distributors. That way you can find the closest one to you for easier shipping :~)

Thank you so much! You are an angel!
Love this!! How long could you make this in advance?? Thank you!!!!!
I would do the 260s the same day or the day before max. The round balloons you could do several days in advance as long as you bag them :~)

I live on the east coast. Do you provide training classes or workshops?
YES! I have an online balloon business bootcamp :~) I'm just about to start marketing for the next session. The date on the page hasn't been updated, but the rest of the info is correct.... www.BalloonExpertSchool.com :~)
Thank you! Do you know of any in person classes?

Can you make seahorse please 😘
I'll add it to my list :~)
how do you keep balloons from getting static and popping
If they're underinflated the static shouldn't pop them. Otherwise, I always put a dryer sheet into the trasport bags ;~)
thanks for the tip! what's the best way to blow them up? I use a machine and it seems to have more static
I also use a machine, but it may also have to do with the room that you're in.

thanks so much for your help!

Sorry about that, I have a lot of information to get out and am trying to keep it from being too long lol. If you get my books from Amazon the instructions are written out and may be easier to follow :~)
