• Don’t forget to place as many Candy Canes throughout your entire party site as possible. The more you have - the bigger the impact.
• Balloons can economically transform any room into a festive space in a matter of minutes by using some of the following ideas:

-Use a helium tank to fill balloons. Tie curling ribbon to red and white balloons, and group them together. (Odd numbers look best: 3, 5, or 7) Place groupings of balloons around the party room.
-Tie a bunch of helium-filled balloons to the chair, or tie one balloon to the back of each chair.
-If you choose not to use helium, tie balloons to varying lengths of curling ribbon, and hang from the ceiling, or from a light fixture over the party table.

Table Decorations
