Helium

Enchanting! French designer Clémentine Henrion makes these fanciful eternal helium balloons. Never face the disappointment of your foil balloon deflating ever again. She explains the “illusion” of an helium balloon is entirely made from fancy fabrics.

“There is no helium in this Helium Eternal balloon : it is stuffed with kapok, like a soft pillow. A tiny flap fixed at the top of the balloon helps hanging it to your interior’s ceiling, hook it to a curtain rod, the top of a wall etc. The key thing is to hang it up as high as possible, in order to recreate the magic illusion of a real flying helium balloon!”

Inflatable Parrot

Gurgle. I would so like a parrot!

Oh that’s such a good idea! I’d love a balloon that lasts forever just floating away round my house!

Ooh. This is an amaaazing idea. It’d be great for a kids room.

Who am I kidding. I want the rainbow in MY room.
