Helium in the mix
Bubbles float above a helium bunch, so these show both together.
Floating balloons on a weight, in your colours, treated with Hi-Float so they last as long as they possibly can. Including personalised helium numbers you will not find in a shop.

Sometimes you do not need a whole display, you just want the room to feel like a celebration. A bunch of helium balloons on a weight does that, and it is the simplest thing I make.
You pick the colours and how many. Plain, metallic, chrome, pastel or confetti filled, tied with matching ribbon. Bunches of three or more come with the weight included.
Every latex balloon I fill with helium is treated with Hi-Float, a liquid that coats the inside and slows the helium escaping. Untreated, a latex balloon is usually done within a day. Treated, you should get around three days out of it.
This is the one worth knowing about. A large foil number filled with helium, on a weight, with a name or message added in vinyl.
You can buy a plain helium number in plenty of shops. What you generally cannot buy is one with your child's name on it, in the colours you asked for, delivered to your door. That is the difference, and it is why these are popular for birthdays where you want something special without a full stack.
Foil numbers float for a week or more, considerably longer than latex.
Helium is not cheap and the price moves around, which is why helium pieces cost more than the equivalent air filled ones. Air filled displays like stacks, arches and garlands last far longer and cost less, so if you do not specifically need things to float, they are usually better value. I would always rather tell you that than sell you the more expensive thing.

Helium latex balloons float for around three days thanks to the Hi-Float treatment. Foil numbers and bubble balloons float for a week or more. Heat brings all of that down, so keep them cool and out of direct sun.
Yes, on bunches of three or more, and on personalised helium numbers.
Yes, that is rather the point of them. A name, an age or a short message goes on in vinyl in a colour to match. It is the thing that makes it different from a shop bought one.
Almost always. Give me as much notice as you can if you want an exact shade, since it may need ordering in. At short notice I will tell you honestly what I have available.
No. Whether it is one special balloon or fifty, just ask.
Yes, from Harpenden. Bear in mind helium balloons need a decent amount of car space and they must not be left in a hot car, so many people prefer delivery for these.
