Balloon Box New Year Countdown

Party, Styling, Text and Photos by Confetti Sunshine

It isn’t much of a New Year’s Eve party without an exciting way to celebrate the stroke of midnight — and there isn’t much that is more exciting than a surprise box of helium-filled balloons. Make one big box, or a bunch of small boxes for each kid. Anyway you do it, a surprise of floating balloons is sure to bring a smile to every child’s face.
