No, these balloons are specifically designed for air inflation only and are not suitable for use with helium.
The product includes two foil balloons (a pink number '1' and a pink star), one straw for inflating the balloons, and 2 meters of ribbon for hanging.
The approximate height of each balloon is 35cm.
You can inflate the balloons by inserting the provided straw into the valve and blowing air into them.
Foil balloons can often be deflated and reinflated, though repeated use may affect their appearance or seal over time. Store deflated balloons properly to maximize reusability.
These balloons are ideal for birthdays (especially first birthdays), parties, or any celebration where a touch of pink decoration is desired.
They are best used indoors or in sheltered outdoor areas. Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods and keep away from sharp objects.
Ensure the inflation straw is fully inserted into the valve and that you are blowing air consistently. Check that the valve is not blocked.
Check the inflation valve for a secure seal. Ensure there are no small punctures or tears in the balloon material. Re-inflate if necessary.
Ensure the ribbon is threaded through the designated grommets or loops on the balloon. If the loops are small, try using a thin, sturdy object to help guide the ribbon through.
Setup: To inflate, insert the included straw into the balloon's inflation valve and blow air gently until the balloon is firm. Avoid over-inflation, which could cause the balloon to burst. Once inflated, tie off the valve or use the self-sealing mechanism if present. Attach the ribbon to the balloon's designated hanging points.
Compatibility: These balloons are compatible with standard air inflation methods. They are specifically designed *not* to be filled with helium. The included ribbon is suitable for tying to the balloons and then to other objects or surfaces.
Care: Store uninflated balloons in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sharp objects. Inflated balloons should be kept away from heat sources and sharp edges. If they lose some air over time, they can often be re-inflated with a small amount of air.
