Tell me these are new to some of you out there. I can't tell anymore what's new and what's so done it's no longer worthy of blog-versation. I love Confetti Systems with all my heart n' soul, and Geronimo Balloon Troopers are right there with my adoration for tinsely, sugary-colored, shiny, crepey, balloony creations of celebration.
I swear, I've sat and stared at photos of these things, and even if I could figure out how they're made, I'd never put the hours in, it must take to create them.
macaroons are the grossest tasting confection on the trend market currently, but they look perfect here.
What are "Balloon Troopers" ? I personally, had never heard of the term (or maybe it's totally made up).
The troopers are made using vintage ribbons, hand-marbled Italian tissue paper, metallic frill, gold tape and a whole lotta other stuff. Right here in L.A. they don't come cheap, but if you're trying to go all 'budget', try and make one of these yourself. My guess is that the starting price of one balloon at $55.00 will sound totally worth it.
