Beautiful colour combined, DIY your own the very hungry caterpillar balloon(1.2m length), and balloon sculpture(1.4m height) for your little one's birthday.

How it works

This DIY standing balloon bouquet kit is designed for busy parents — inflate the latex balloons, twist them into clusters to build a sturdy base, then stack and glue your number and character balloons on top. No helium needed; air inflation keeps it floor-standing for the party.

Inflate the latex balloons to an even size (about 20–22 cm) with a hand pump.
Tie balloons into pairs, then twist pairs into cross-shaped clusters.
Stack the clusters on the ribbon and wrap firmly to form a stable base.
Inflate the foil number/character balloons (slightly soft is easier) and stick them on with glue dots.
Add any stickers or extras, then display standing on the floor.

Full step-by-step instructions — also linked via QR in the kit.

Instructions

Tips: Do not put too much air in foil number balloon and Peppa pig balloon, it is much easier to glue them together if the surface is slightly soft.

Tear glue dot sheet to stripes to use.

Recommended tools: balloon pump, measuring tape

(scroll down to SECTION 2 for table top Peppa pig family bouquet )

SECTION 1 (Peppa pig or George pig balloon bouquet)

1. Check bags, they are:

Bag 1 balloon base kit: 12 pieces Multi coloured 12inch(big) latex balloons and 8 pieces white 5inch(small) latex balloons. And some extras. Ribbon roll.

Bag 2 foil balloon kit: Foil Number balloon, Foil "Peppa pig" or "George and Dinosaur" balloon, glue dot sheets, straws, optional name stickers.

(Peppa pig balloon bouquet only)Bag 3 flower balloons kit(5inch small balloons): 2 pieces flower shaped clips. 5 pieces pastel yellow balloons, 5 pieces pastel purple balloons, 1 piece dark pink balloons, 1 piece bright yellow balloon. And some extras.

2. Take 12PCs 12inch big latex balloons out from Bag 1, Blow them up to similar sizes, tie knots. Suggest around 22cm. (place a ruler or measuring tape or an object next to the balloon when blowing)

3. Tie 2 of them together to make 6 pairs (as latex is stretchy, just pull and tie their knots together).

Pick the balloon colour you like to put together, blow them up to similar size, tie 2 balloons together to make a pair

4. Pick 2 pairs, stack them on top of each other like a shape of cross, twist the joint to join them together to make one set, then level them. (Don't worry if they move, as long as they join together)

5. Repeat step 4, make three 12inch balloon sets.

6. Take 8PCs 5inch(small) white balloons out from Bag 1, blow them up, suggest around 10cm each, tie 2 of them together to make 4 pairs, then repeat step 4, make two 5inch sets.

7. (You will need some space in this step) Open the ribbon roll from bag 1, place it on a flat surface, then place first 12inch balloon set on top of the ribbon.

8. Place a 5inch set on top of the 12inch set (rotate 45 degrees), pull the ribbon around the balloon gaps up and down several times to tie them together.

9. Follow step 8, place another 12inch set on top of the 5inch set, rotate 45 degrees and tie ribbon through the balloon gaps until they are tied together. As the picture shows, place another 5inch set and then 12inch set on top, each time rotate 45 degrees and tie up and down through the gaps, until the base is stable, pull tight and tie a knot. Base is made.

10. Take the number foil balloon out from Bag 2, Blow it up by using straws(put straw through the vale, blow air into the balloon, once it is done, take straw out, press the vale to seal), if you have a name sticker stick it on.

Blow up "Peppa pig" or "George and dinosaur" balloon.

11. Turn the base(from Step 9) 90 degrees. Place the number balloon on the top, find the best position and stick it onto the base by using glue dots.

12. Glue "Peppa pig" or "George pig and dinosaur" balloon on the base, glue Peppa pig's hand on the number balloon until they are balanced and stable, you may need to place multiple glue dots to glue them together.

(Only for Peppa pig balloon bouquet)13. Make 2 sets of flowers. Take 5 pieces purple balloons and 1 piece bright yellow balloon out from Bag 3, blow them up around 10cm each, tie knots, clip their knots on the flower shaped balloon holder.

Repeat this step to make another pastel yellow flower.

Use multiple glue dots to glue the 2 flowers on the base, finish.
