We have recently celebrated my son's 15th birthday and my husband's 60th (not on the same day but within a week) and we had balloon decoration on both days. Personally, I am not a fan of balloons for birthdays so when my mother bought a soccer-themed balloon arrangement for my son's birthday and a more sophisticated black-and-white-and-gold one for my husband's I was rather skeptical about the whole thing... But she was super excited about it, so I didn't object much. Both kits came with a pump and a string to tie the 50 or so balloons together so it took us a couple of hours to get the look completed. Never thought I'd ever say it, but it actually looked good. This is what the soccer-themed garland looked like.
Of course, balloons are a classic decoration for birthdays, but opinions on them can be divided. Some people think they add a festive touch to any celebration, while others feel they're too childish or over-the-top. Some people think balloons are cheesy or tacky, and that they're better suited for children's parties than adult ones. Others might feel like balloons are wasteful or bad for the environment.
So, what do you think? Do you like balloons for birthdays, or do you think they're too childish? Are there other decorations you prefer, or do you think less is more when it comes to birthday decor?
