What is an "Organic" Balloon Garland?
Unlike old-school arches that look like rigid tubes, an organic balloon garland uses mixed sizes (5", 11", 16") to create a natural, flowing cloud effect.
The secret is the ratio. Our calculator assumes:
- 70% Medium Balloons (11-inch): The main body color.
- 30% Small Balloons (5-inch): The "fillers" that hide gaps and add texture.
How to Measure for a Balloon Arch
Don't just guess "10 feet." Use a piece of string or painters tape to trace where you want the arch to go (e.g., up one side of a door and across the top).
- Standard Door Frame: ~15-18 feet
- Above a Dessert Table: ~6-8 feet
- Full Circle Backdrop: ~20-24 feet
