This project is super easy and quick to do and would be incredibly cute for a little kids birthday party.
As it turns out tomorrow is one of my coworkers birthdays is tomorrow and I decided to take it upon myself to make some decorations for it. When I went to ask about the theme, however, the answer I got was “party balloons”, which isn’t so much a theme as it is the decorations that will be present. I am never one to be perturbed by something as silly as a lack of theme so I decided to go with it and came up with the idea of these super cute tissue paper balloons on the fly.

    Using your embroidery thread make a knot at the bottom leaving a long tail to look like the string on the bottom of a balloon. Cut a very long string of embroidery thread and use your hot glue gun to glue the balloons to the string to create a garland. I don’t have a picture of this so I will have to post it tomorrow.
