7. I painted the balloons. You can do any design you like, but it would be fun to have kids paint them.

10. I cut a wire hanger to attach the basket to the balloon.

13. I inserted the wires into the basket and bottom of the balloons. If the wire fits tight, you don’t need to add any glue. However, if the wire is looser, a dab of glue on the ends of the wire will keep it all in place.

14. To give it a more finished look, I used a black paint pen and outlined the colors and the edges.

15. I painted the back black, but you could repeat the same pattern on the back, or do a whole different design.

16. I used a poly acrylic sealer, in satin, to finish it all off.
