Gold number balloons
There are 10 products.
Gold number balloons are the classic choice for milestone birthdays, anniversaries and New Year's Eve. These large foil balloons in shiny gold are about 86 cm tall and available individually from 0 to 9. That means you can put together any age, from a first birthday to a 100th, and make a big statement with just a few balloons. A gold number balloon suits almost any colour scheme and looks especially elegant with black, white, pink or navy.
Tips for gold number balloons
- Combine two digits: for a 30th, 40th or 50th birthday, order each digit separately, for example 3 and 0. For a number like 66 you need the same digit twice.
- Float with helium: filled with helium, the balloons float for several days. Tie them to a balloon weight so they don't drift up to the ceiling.
- Air-filled as decoration: filled with air they won't float, but you can stick them to the wall or hang them above the gift table and behind the dessert buffet. A straw or small pump is all you need.
- Fill correctly: fill only until the creases have almost disappeared. The seams should not be stretched, otherwise the balloon may burst in the heat.
- Add more: gold confetti and latex balloons turn the numbers into a complete balloon arrangement.
Frequently asked questions
Can I inflate the balloons the day before?
Yes, helium-filled foil balloons easily last overnight and still look full on the day of the party. Keep them in a room at normal temperature, as cold makes them shrink and heat makes them expand.
How long do they float?
Foil balloons hold helium much longer than latex balloons and usually float for several days, often a week or more depending on the temperature.
Can the number balloons be reused?
Yes. They usually have a self-sealing valve. Let the air out with a straw, fold the balloon flat and refill it for the next occasion.
