DIY Silhouette Heart Balloons

DIY Silhouette Heart Balloons for Valentine's Day | Club Crafted

DIY Silhouette Heart Balloons for Valentine's Day | Club CraftedLet me start off by saying that photographing balloons is hard work ? Mid-way through taking photos of today’s Valentine’s Day DIY, the wind was whipping my balloons right into a pointy cactus in the planter I was standing in, promptly ending the shoot. Yes, this is what we bloggers gotta do to get a good photo, ha! Nonetheless, these simple silhouette heart balloons are an easy way to make a Valentine’s Day decoration or gift with any round mylar balloons!

Here in Orange County, we don’t have many Instagram-worthy walls that make great backdrops. The best I could find was this lovely taco joint with a section of light pink brick, and at the very least we got to eat delicious Mexican food after wrangling balloons in front of a patio full of strangers. Fun times, ha!

These simple silhouette balloons take minutes to make, and the heart shape still stands out perfectly. Whether you want to use them to celebrate Valentine’s Day or just because, they’re easy to whip up with any mylar balloons!

DIY Silhouette Heart Balloons for Valentine's Day | Club CraftedTime: 10 minutes

Supplies:

  • Round mylar balloons, white or other color
  • Large cardstock/construction paper heart
  • Spray paint

Step 1: Lay out a tarp and put on gloves for best results. Lay the un-inflated balloons out flat.

Step 2: Place the large paper heart in the middle. It should be cut very large so that it covers most of the balloon, leaving only a few inches around the outside.

Step 4: Inflate the balloons with helium and tie ribbon to the bottoms.

WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk abou WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk about the new pins in the shop...but they SOLD OUT in 12 hours instead πŸ˜­πŸ™ Andrew and I are so overwhelmed with the love of the #FIPWarriors community. Thank you to anyone who's purchased a pin to support Milo's treatment! We're so close to the end now! One more batch of pins coming up soon 😽
What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas decorations?! 😭 Half our neighbors already took down their Christmas lights, so I guess the only goal is to not be the LAST one with lights up. How long do you keep up your decorations?
Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holi Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holiday card before it's a week til Christmas, so we can actually send one πŸ€ͺ When we get Christmas cards, I always feel like a little kid getting mail again! Do you send a holiday card??⁠
⁠
(Grab this DIY card holder in the blog archives! πŸ‘‰)
More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHO More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHOCKED to see Milo's pins sell out so quickly. We made 50 with the expectation that we wouldn't sell very many, but I just put in an order for more inventory! 😭⁠
⁠
This time we'll be selling black and white cat "FIP Warrior" pins to help raise money for Milo's treatment. Stay tuned - a pre-sale is coming! Pins will ship again in early January. In the meantime, there's plenty of other products available in the shop! (Visit my @etsy via the link in my bio)
NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your su NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your support of Milo while he goes through FIP treatment! I designed a new enamel pin to help us raise the funds to pay for Milo's treatment...THEN we sold almost all of the pins in just in a few hours! I'm so thankful and in shock of the generosity of our FIP community 😭⁠
⁠
There are a few left and more on the way, so you can SHOP NOW on @etsy and here on IG!! If you want a pin and they are sold out, please tag yourself below! Visit the link in my bio to purchase πŸ›β

"FIP Warrior" is the name we give to cats fighting FIP and the humans who help them, bringing awareness to the disease and possible treatments. Our Warrior Milo is almost halfway through his treatment and we couldn't be more grateful to see him getting better! Every purchase from my shop helps us to pay for his expensive treatments and is so, so appreciated πŸ™πŸΌ
🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since 🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since my last post (oops!) but I had to fit in my one obligatory fall photo before I dive straight into Christmas! If you caught my Stories recently, you may have already seen why I've been so absent...⁠
⁠
Last month, our sweet Milo was diagnosed with a disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). It's very serious and has required our full attention to give him daily injections that should help him recover. The treatment is 84+ days long and has taken a huge emotional toll on us. You can learn more about Milo's FIP story in my profile Highlights!⁠
⁠
Long story short: I've been too emotionally drained from Milo's treatment, my regular work and the crazy world around us to even think about social media 😣 I truly don't know how you fellow creators do it! Hopefully the cheerfulness of Christmastime gives me the urge to create again! (πŸ“Έ cookies made for a project with @spectrumorganic)
