Have you ever fancied ‘jazzing’ up a Supershape foil or Orbz balloon?
Here’s a quick and easy method to add a lovely, long classy tail to your creation.
You will need:
- A helium-filled balloon tied with ribbon to a weight
- A door curtain – find a range of colours here!
- Balloon Bond
- Scissors
Step 1 – Cut the door curtain into sections approximately 2” wide. Our door curtain will make approximately 16 tails of this width.

Step 2 – Take two small pieces of balloon bond and apply them either side of the valve of the balloon where the tail will be hanging from.

Step 3 – Peel the backing off the Balloon Bond, trying not to touch it!
Step 4 – Wrap the top of the door curtain around the valve of the balloon covering the Balloon Bond and press firmly.
