HI

Has anyone used these sticks??

The information about them is being emailed out as answers to any helium shortage anyone has.. as they can hold a jumbo foil, so should in theory hold and 11" airfilled latex..... But they are only 20" long and to my thinking and teaching too short for centrepieces (normally we teach minimum height of 24" for first balloon to give views across table etc) - which means they would need to be  24", 35" & 46" to give the same design as a 3 x 11" helium filled balloon bouquet on a table... and at those lengths I would be concerned of them waving about and toppling over, especially in rooms with air conditioning..

We have been emailed as this is an answer used by the USA when their shortage happened, but I don't know if that's a marketing tag or not, as I have not seen any reports from USA decorators on them

Sorry I know this is predominately a decor question.. but thought others may have used them for other air filled designs too

Thanks

Pam
