    What Balloons do You Currently Have Blown Up?

    As someone that's never had the means of just leaving balloons blown up around the house for more than a day at a time, I'd love to see photos of what balloons other looners just leave laying around.

    Well, I don't really do the photo thing, but if you have a good imagination......
    I presently have 40+ 17" Tuftex balloons filled with helium in several clusters around the house, a fresh bunch of helium filled 14" Tuftex with some 24" TT's in a bunch in my living room. 4 helium 36" Q-tex's (2 of which are still floating and going strong for 8 months now). a dozen or so punchballs in the bedroom blown up by the wife as well as a mix of 17" TT and 24" TT's also blown by the wife. Finally, right behind me in the rec room in the basement is a fully inflated, necked, yellow 60" round that's about 4 weeks old.

        No photos, but I have some helium-filled 36" Qualatex rounds in my bedroom, along with assorted 11", 14" and 18" Qualatex rounds. I also have a few foil balloons too. In my living room, I have a 20ft-long, air-filled arch, made up of around 120 x 11" Qualatex rounds, plus a lots of large foils (Valentine hearts, giant Airwalker cartoon characters, and some 36" round foils) too.

          I just have some blue belbal 14” balloons which i blew up at the weekend. I have attached one photo of one (only blew up 3) and they are in the bottom of my wife’s wardrobe so they don’t oxidise

            No pic of it but, right now, I'm testing one of the 24" balloons from Dollar General. It's got a good round shape and is extremely soft. I also think it has potential to neck out with a bit of work.

              I saw those in the store recently, and was wondering what they were like. Please give an update/pics when you can!

                I've got a Tuf-tex 17 tied to a bookcase and two Unique 16"s on my bedroom floor.

                I seem to have periods where I'll have lots of balloons around, then they expire (usually deflating due to age) and there'll be none for a week or two. Then I start blowing more up again. I'm probably on the start of an uptick at the moment. :-)

                  Wife just did another big bunch of helium balloons consisting of 16 17" Tuftex that's a mix of printed, unprinted, plain colors and jewel tones with 4 24" TT's at the top. To finish our tank off so we could take it back to the gas distributor she did a nice yellow 17" "For Lease" Tuftex and a strange 24" dark blue I got from someone as a gift. Not sure what the brand is. Deflated it's got the same flutes as a 24" Tuftex but is really round when blown up. it's not a Party City 24 (I've got lots of those) but I think it might be a Unique 24, which I've never had before.
                  Gotta hand it to my wife, she really knows how to push balloons to their max and does a nice job necking those Tuftex 17's and 24's!

                    A well-necked 16" blue Unique with a Happy Birthday print and a purple 14" Belbal. This past weekend, however, was a balloon party with around 50 inflated--24" Qtex, 17 and 24" Tuftex, 16" Uniques, and 14" Belbals.

                          i have this big dinosaur airloonz balloon which i ride on sometimes.
                          it reminds me of the ride-on inflatables, except mylar, and it feels so good.

                          i can also hump on that balloon too! it's one heck of a balloon!

                            Currently got 2 balloons inflated. One cheap Chinese 36” under inflated
                            and one everts 40” also under inflated as I like squishy balloons that can take some rough handling without too much fear of unintended pops.
