UGlu\u00ae<\/a> is the perfect tool to help you make all kinds of balloon decorations for any party, from simple balloon garlands to complex organic arches. Plus, we\u2019ve got a video demonstration to show you just how easy it is! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I have a large and extended family and there\u2019s always a celebration going on, whether it\u2019s a birthday party, baby shower, gender reveal, retirement or graduation.  It so happens that I\u2019m the de facto family party planner and decorator \u2013 probably because they know I\u2019m the tape guy, who always has a tape solution! In preparation for such special occasions, I make sure to stock up on UGlu<\/a>\u00ae<\/a><\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I\u2019m not the only one! Throughout this post, you\u2019ll be seeing the beautiful work of one of my colleagues, who used UGlu\u00ae<\/sup> to create a balloon demi-arch for the birthday of another colleague. You can watch her put the final product together in the video below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So What is UGlu\u00ae<\/sup>? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

UGlu<\/a>\u00ae<\/a><\/sup> is a special, double-sided adhesive tape. It\u2019s different than any tape you\u2019ve met before. It comes in different sized patches (and dashes), which let you peel and stick it on to almost any surface. It has a powerful hold on whatever you\u2019re sticking, but it\u2019s also removable, so you don\u2019t have to worry about damaging your walls or most surfaces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out our video here<\/a> to see how easy it is to put UGlu<\/a>\u00ae<\/a><\/sup> down and peel it back up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helium Shortage Letting the Air out of Balloon Decorating? Nope!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Although helium is the second\nmost abundant element in the universe, recent supply chain interruptions have\ncaused shortages in the market.  Due to the shortages, the helium that\u2019s\nleft in the market is given priority towards more critical applications such as\nsemiconductor manufacturing, aerospace and healthcare (helium helps cool\nthe coils of wires that conduct electricity in the magnets of MRI machines),\nmaking helium much more expensive for non-essential applications such as\nballoon decorating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucky for us, UGlu<\/a>\u00ae<\/a><\/sup> adheres well to latex and foil balloons! With UGlu\u00ae<\/sup>, you can make regular latex balloons look like they\u2019re floating -the way helium balloons would- by sticking them to walls and ceilings. Plus, you can hang up other decorations alongside them using the same UGlu\u00ae<\/sup> patches \u2013 flowers, lights, posters, photos, and more- to create some really lovely d\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
