FAQs
How many balloons can one weight hold?
A single 190g weight is designed to comfortably hold a standard bouquet of 5-7 latex balloons.
Can this weight be used outdoors?
Yes, it can be used outdoors, but keep in mind that strong winds may require additional weights to prevent the bouquets from moving.
Is the weight reusable?
Yes, as long as it is handled with care and stored properly after the event, you can use it for multiple occasions.
What are the dimensions of the weight?
The weight measures 2.25 inches in width by 5.5 inches in height.
Is the plastic hook replaceable?
The hook is integrated into the design. If it breaks, the weight will no longer be able to anchor balloons by the ribbon.
Troubleshooting
Balloon bouquet is tipping over
The bouquet may be too large or off-balance; add a second weight to the cluster for extra stability.
Ribbon slipping off the hook
Ensure you are using a double knot when securing the ribbon to the plastic hook to provide enough friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply loop your balloon ribbon through the provided plastic hook and knot it securely. Ensure the knot is tight to prevent the ribbon from slipping during the event.
This product is compatible with standard ribbon types, including curling ribbon, satin ribbon, and decorative cord. To maintain the appearance of the gold foil, avoid cleaning with abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals. If dust accumulates, use a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth to gently wipe the surface. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the finish and prevent the foil from peeling.
