Designs for Different Occasions
Simple outlines like the Halloween costume page work well for younger children learning to color inside the lines. Older kids and adults can enjoy detail-rich sheets like the "Pride" letter design or the birthday event planning page, which leave plenty of space for adding custom patterns and fine textures.
Tips for Coloring Balloons
Balloons have round shapes that look best when you add highlights and shading. Colored pencils and fine-tip markers give you strong control over these smooth surfaces.
- Leave a small white curve near the top edge to create a shiny, reflective look.
- Use dark blue, red, or purple around the bottom edges to build soft shadows.
- Fill in letter-shaped balloons with bright primary colors to make them pop off the page.
- Try neon or pastel gel pens to highlight party strings, confetti, and costume details.
Fun Balloon Facts
Modern rubber balloons were invented in 1824 by Michael Faraday for laboratory experiments with gases. Today, helium-filled toy balloons can rise thousands of feet into the air before popping or drifting back down.
