Number decorated for Photocall Birthday

Last week we were asked to decorate a birthday party for a girl who was turning 3 years old in a beautiful house on the Catalan Costa Brava. One of the assignments was to make a fund of Photocall different and spectacular. In the house, there was a 3-meter high white painted iron arch to decorate and the idea was to hang the giant number 3 in the middle. The idea was that it would serve as a rear Photocall and it would also welcome the guests when they arrive and get birthday party supplies online.

I leave you the step by step; I think it can serve you a lot as inspiration. It is not difficult but, I am not going to fool you, it is a lot of work. Now yes, the result is spectacular!

I think it is perfect to decorate a wedding, birthday party or any special event, even a company event.

I promise you that in "live" it impacts and wins much more than in photos. The photos are not the best, they are taken unprofessionally with my phone in the garden at home. I hope you like them!

STEP BY STEP

1. The first and most complicated thing is to draw or trace the number or letter or word that we want to cut out on the foam board and gets birthday party supplies online. In my case, the number must have been 1.20 cm high and it was practically impossible to draw it and make it look perfect. Therefore I will tell you my trick ... With a projector connected to the computer; I projected on my 1.50-meter foam board. High a perfect number of three and I went over it with a pencil. How very fast and easy, with an impeccable result.

2. Once we have the image drawn, we cut it out with the help of a Cutter, being very careful not to hurt ourselves. It is a bit hard, but exerting "some" of force is perfectly possible.

3. We go over the cut a couple of times being careful not to cut ourselves and then we separate our number already perfectly punched.  As you can see ... this one was huge. Since I didn\'t have that big a table, I worked it all on the floor of my terrace.

4. Protect the surface with newspaper and then spray paint to create a colored base. This was going to help the finish to be perfect ... I was worried that there would be empty undecorated spots between Pom pom and balloon and buy awesome birthday party supplies online.

5. After composing and presenting the different colors and sizes of Pom pomsOn the letter, I glued one by one with the help of the hot glue gun. One tip ... paste them so that they are not ordered. A little chaos is good and tries to issue Paper Pom Poms slightly exceed the border of your number. With this, the possible imperfections of the cut will not be seen and the effect is total.

6. With all Pom poms already glued in place we are filling in the undecorated gaps with small colorful balloons inflated with the help of a manual inflator. Do not inflate them much so that they do not take a "pear" shape, that they are round is always cuter.

Glue the balloons one by one with the help of the silicone glue. If the balloon is of good quality and made of firm Latex, you can stick them without a problem.

Glue them as follows: Apply a dot of hot silicone on the cardboard and then press the glue of it balloon hot silicone. Beware of burning yourself! Once the part where the knot is attached, you can apply a mini point of silicone between the balloon and the balloon to fix them. Quiet, they will not burst!

Fill in your letter Pom poms and little balloonsuntil completely covered. The paint will help cover any undecorated holes and in my case, I used some pleated tissue paper to fill in places without having to make mini Pom Poms and purchase best birthday party supplies online and birthday party supplied online,

I wrote this letter two days before the party. If it is true that the balloons did not have the same brightness, they can last perfectly a couple of days, this is very comfortable in the face of stress on the day of the party. Another good thing is thatPom poms can be recycled and reused.

Many of you have asked me on Instagram how he stood up ... in this case, he is leaning on a chair but on the day of the event we glued some self-adhesive hooks and with a transparent fishing line we hung it to our iron arch. In case of using it as Photocall On a wall, it can be glued with double-sided tape perfectly. They are all lightweight materials and weigh very little.

I hope it inspires you and if any of you do not dare we are in Barcelona, we can decorate a number, letter or whatever you want for your next party. And why not get birthday party supplies online.
