Debbie22 10 #1 Posted March 14, 2009 Hi I am wanting to put balloons up in the hall that we are having our wedding reception, i was going to buy balloon weights but it would work out at about £35 and i want to try to keep the costs down to as low as possible. Does anyone have any ideas as to how i can make these myself??? thanks xx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Helly 10 #2 Posted March 14, 2009 Wrap 2p coins in foil (to form a kind of tear drop shap) then tie the string on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

biffalo 10 #4 Posted March 15, 2009 If you are having wedding favours, why not use some of the boxes/bags you are using for them and fill them with pebbles. That was my initial idea but then i got a baloon package with weights included. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
