I just bought the Cricut Joy Portable machine just for this purpose. My niece's Baby Shower is in October. I bought 20" & 24" size Bobo Balloons. CAN'T WAIT!!!
Hi Jennifer, I’m going to need a bigger craft room, you keep showing us how to do all of these AMAZING crafts. Thank you so very much for showing us how to do these crafts. YOU are AMAZING. Now I have to go try to learn how to do this one. A big THANK YOU again.
For years… for years I have been watching crafting videos, continuously rewinding and still lost most times. I found you today and I’ve been watching literally all day. I ran out to get AirPods in order to connect at work. Where have you been all my life 🙏🙏 the videos are so well done and timed helping me to get back to where I need when I need. Oh I appreciate you! I am a forever fan now. Heading over to the blog to add to my new addiction 😂 thank you so much💕
Jennifer, I am going to try my hardest to make this for my granddaughters bday. Your projects are always so cute. You are a wonderful derful instructor. I am new to this Cricut world but am so excited to get more experience. Thanks
Your tutorials are my favorite-you convince me I can successfully complete the projects with your very clear instructions. I have made 4 of these since watching the video and have ideas for so many more! I need to work on creating curved designs so I can branch out with other designs. Thank you again for all your hard work and inspiration 💜
You can add a balloon cup to the other end of the stick. This will help stabilize the balloon stick. Use a balloon stick to insert the 5" balloons. An electric pump can be used to blow up bobo balloon, just make sure not to over blow. Source : am a balloon decorator. This is a great video and you are amazing!
I made birthday balloons for my grandchildren's birthdays this month! They were so much fun to make and looked professional! The designs were perfect and the directions spot on. You will not fail!!
You are amazing! Your crafts are beautiful. Your tutorials are so easy to follow and most of all I really like how you reply to everyone that comments. Such a beautiful soul. Thank you for all you do.
OMG, you are the best of the best because you explain everything with ease, expertise and simplicity, and you answered my question that I had about whether I could blow up a Bobo balloon with a balloon pump
Jennifer, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. For myself ( an older person with dyslexia ) they have been an absolute pleasure to follow. Thank you again, love & blessings from Nova Scotia, Canada 🇨🇦❤
Hi Jennifer, what a great video this is another craft to add to my list of things I want to try, there are so many things on my list that I am going to be crafting when I am 120 yrs old lol. Thanks again for your amazing teachings you definitely are the best, hugs Jewel
Love this tutorial, I was wondering what to do for centerpieces for my family reunion, this will be great, first in-person reunion since covid. Thanks for another great tutorial
This is so much fun, and honestly you make every project so easy and I love that about you. Step by Step and it is successful. You are such a blessing, Love your videos so much. You are the crafting Queen in my book 😊
I absolutely love your tutorials! You are always so thorough and it is so obvious that you have worked out all the kinks before you give your tutorial! I greatly appreciate your expertise and will DEFINITELY be trying this ❤️❤️Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this great tutorial. I am definitely going to make one for my granddaughters graduation from high school. Thank you again, I am a true fan of yours.
Another super detailed video! I purchased the balloons last week when you linked them...now to begin! Do you have a video showing how to put a larger item inside the balloon? Thank you, thank you!
If you use a skewer stick ( one without a point of course) to put the small balloons inside the bobo balloon, it goes it so smooth. It even works with the larger balloons you want inside. Sorry to but in. I love your work every thing you do is absolutely stunning
I love this. I’m so glad I found you because you have helped me to have confidence using my Cricut. I’m just curious how long the balloons stay inflated.
Hi Jennifer. I wish I could show u my beautiful balloon bouquets. I was a little scared to do the little balloons inside of the bobo but thank u for giving me some tips. I appropriate it so much
I’ve tried these a month ago with lights on the outside for my grandson’s 16th but I could not get the air to stay in. So I will try again using rubber bands besides the tying off. Thanks Jennifer get tutorial!
Hello Jennifer…Your tutorials are the best!❤I enjoy watching and learning! Can I ask where you got the little shelf you have around your Cricut Maker machine? I need one. Thanks!
We designed and made them on our 3D printer. We plan to share the print files on our blog at some point for anyone else who wants them. There are two styles -- the one on the left uses PVC pipes, so it’s height adjustable to your needs. The one on the right is all 3D printed except for the table, which is a piece of wood screwed to the legs. Both meet the requirements in Cricut’s Safety Instructions for “a flat and stable surface” as the Cricuts are just sitting on stable tables.
I was just saying to myself that I needed a new project to do. Then I get your email, WFT Omg something new. I just order all this already. I can’t find the circuit 2x2 mats for the cards on Amazon. Love this ballon! I adore you and your staff
You’ve encouraged me to try this out! Can you recommend a smaller bobo balloon size to use? I’m afraid 24 inches might be too large until I’m more confident. Thank you for everything as always!
I tried to look up your resizing guide and it doesn't come up anymore. I have 20" BoBo balloons and not sure what size to make the decal now. I love all of the stuff that you do and I am having SO much fun with everything that you teach! Thank you SO much.
This design is sized for the 24” Bobo balloon from the materials list and will make a decal that is approximately 9” wide by 7.5” tall. If you are placing the decal on a different sized balloon, resize it accordingly.
So beautiful! I would like to make this for my daughterś present gift on her graduiation's day. Which design could I adapt for a GRAD? Thanks for your ideas!!
This is great. Thank you so much. I am wondering how people get other things inside these balloons like teddy bears etc? Things that are larger to begin with... how do you get them into the balloon?
Thank you for the nice video. Just wondering would it not be easier to use white board marker on the BoBo balloon to mark out the center etc. prior to inflating?
I would like to use glitter vinyl to do the greeting on the bobo ballon. Do you think the strong grip tape will be fine to use on the ballon to transfer or will it bust. Thanks!
Hi Jennifer! I absolutely LOVE your videos! Thank you for doing them. By the way, I don't know if anyone else has suggested this but, you can also use a small bowl to set your inflated balloon in to hold it still while you apply your decals. Works for me anyways 😊 Thanks again!
I would love another box option for the base this one comes with 4 assorted i want all same size it is hard to find. TY loved this tutorial awsome as always!!
Hi Jennifer. This is such a great gift idea. Thank you so much for teaching us how to make them. Can you please share where you ordered the items from and which ones to order. I looked up the bobo balloons and am not sure which ones to get. Thanks so much! Your are such a great teacher
That is awesome! Is there a way to make glitter stick to the balloons inside the bobo or write something on them so it could be read when they are inflated inside? Crazy questions, but, I am kinda crazy.
Hi Jennifer. I noticed you did not mention that the words need to be curved in order for them to appear straight on the balloons. Do you have a tip for calculating these curve numbers? Thank you! I love this project. It looks so classy!
Hi Jennifer your tutorial has been so helpful! I have a problem that sometimes the bobo balloons just burst for no reason, is there stronger balloons or any suggestions to stop them bursting and does it ever happen to you? TIA
Hi Jennifer! I absolutely love all your tutorials! I am attempting to make one of these for my granddaughter's tenth birthday. I have all my supplies, but have a question concerning the pump. When I'm blowing up the balloon(s) in the BoBo it feels like the pump is sucking the air back out and then back in. I have tried a different balloon pump and it does the same thing. How do you make it look like you are just pumping air INTO the balloon? Ugh, I'm so frustrated with it right now...
Permanent vinyl is the way to go. Here is the tutorial with details on it and affiliate links so you can see what products were used. jennifermaker.com/how-to-make-a-balloon-bouquet/
@@JenniferMaker thank you. Actually my question refers to sealing the balloon. Rather than trying the bobo balloon (as it seems to be very important to do correctly or your project doesn't last) could it be sealed closed with heat - for example using the mini heat press ?
I made these for valentine's day this year (2022) with the same balloons. mine is a little deflated but still standing and it's May. II think the trick is to get the air not to leak out. (I'm not a good knot maker)
Hi Jennifer, I can not wait to try this. I have a question. Is it possible to make these balloons with non-permanent vinyl ? Thank you 😊 now I have the same question for the glass snowman ⛄️ (face & buttons) please help 🥹🥹

Absolutely!
Thank you for your amazing tutorials! Always so easy to follow!
About how long do these last before losing air?
They can last 2 weeks but less time in high humidity.
Hi! Love the video. I plan on making these for my kids birthday centerpieces! How early do you think could I pre make the bubble balloons?
Thank you! I've seen several results but I've had some last for weeks! 💗

Yes! You can use the Explore for this. jennifermaker.com/how-to-make-a-balloon-bouquet/

That' a great question. We didn't use strong grip transfer tape on this project, I'm not sure if it would tear the balloon.
I so love your tutorials. Love love love. I have an older cricut! Do you ever do tutorials with the older ones? I mean old one of the originals ! Lol
Thank you! I do not have an older Cricut. My first one I bought was the Explore Air 2.

That is awesome! Is there a way to make glitter stick to the balloons inside the bobo or write something on them so it could be read when they are inflated inside? Crazy questions, but, I am kinda crazy.
You can add glitter to the inside. I think pieces will stick on their own like a snow globe.
I was wondering also if you couldn’t put the vinyl on before you blow up the balloons!
Love your red/black shoes😁
Thank you, Judy!
Hi Jennifer. I noticed you did not mention that the words need to be curved in order for them to appear straight on the balloons. Do you have a tip for calculating these curve numbers? Thank you! I love this project. It looks so classy!
It should work just fine if the design is centered.
I can’t wait to try this! Thank you, Jennifer!

You have better nerves than I ! Did any balloons pop during your trials?
Hi Jennifer your tutorial has been so helpful! I have a problem that sometimes the bobo balloons just burst for no reason, is there stronger balloons or any suggestions to stop them bursting and does it ever happen to you? TIA

Want is your answer?
You can always use removable vinyl, but it may not stick as well or last as long.
