handmade // birthday balloon tunnel

hi guys!  stella here!  this is my excited face.  i know  you can't hear me, but i'm over here in my nursery saying something like, "ooooohhhh i love ballooooons!"  and did you know i am one year old??  well, i suppose if you saw this post you know all about it.  my mama and dada  were pretty excited about me turning one year so they made me a birthday balloon tunnel, took me chipotle where i ate lots of corn, and then gave me my very first cupcake...

...wait...what's that ma??!!??  

*pause*  

sorry for that, my mama says my cupcake posts will be up soon, 
so stay tuned!  

anyways, you might be wondering why i am writing this DIY post and not my mama.  well, since she is finishing up her teacher stuff tonight i decided to step in and give her a hand.  i know, i'm pretty sweet.  ;)  now i suppose it's time to show you how she and my dada made my this balloon tunnel for my birthday!

birthday balloon tunnel DIY:

step 1: gather your materials.  you will need three things from the craft store: yarn, balloons, and tape.  

step 2: blow up the balloons reeeaaal big and tie them.

step 3: tie the ends of the balloons to long strings of yarn.

step 4: tie the end of the piece of yarn that is not tied to the balloon to the ceiling in the doorway of the birthday boy or girl

step 5: make sure the balloons are at different heights to make the tunnel more fun to crawl through {this is my suggestion as an expert crawler}.

that's it!  check out these photos my mama took of my birthday balloon tunnel.  as you are about to see, it was wicked fun!  thanks mama and dada for such a fantastic birthday treat.

  

tata!

xo, stella
