    Well sometimes not everyone has a business, and I bought balloons from amazon because, I live in a small town and it'd be hard to acquire the high quality ones. I just needed them for my birthday, and if you're just looking for something for a birthday or a small party I'd say it's good enough 🤷🏻‍♀️

    I bought 2 balloon sets and a few statement balloons off Shein for under $25 for my nephew and niece's birthday party, which I did myself. The balloons were thinner, but didn't have the color issue your kit seemed to have. We only had a few pop during assembly and because kids played with the balloon arch, but otherwise they worked really well. We got plenty of compliments and even some people asking for us to do their kid's next event (I have a job, so no).
    My issue was I tried to find quality balloon sites, but they either wanted me to be a business owner, or I wasn't able to get the number of balloons I wanted and would have had buy more than necessary. Seems like quality is either gatekept or cost prohibitive, and hiring for it is really too out of budget.

      all depends on your setup and needs of client. the decision to use this kind of special balloons is on the client, not the decorator.

    When ur a professional. 🤣🤣
    We newbies who jus want some cheap balloons enjoy buying these kits. (Based on my conversion rate they are sometimes expensive)
    Fa real tho I understand ur frustration especially when u r used to doing something for so long professionally. Was listening to a balloon podcast the other day and learnt that "balloon is not a necessity it is a luxury". In that way clients will pay for the art work. It is indeed a lot of work especially when you have to arrange and organize colour schemes. Balloon art is a lot of work, the materials are expensive and the work put into it is also expensive. U guys are great at what you do. Keep it up

    You had already decided to hate it before starting to assemble it. "Pros" will never say anything good about what you can buy at Amazon for a fraction of the price. This was entertaining, but not at all fair. Still buying the Amazon kit, I find it beautiful

      she's a professional reviewing a product just as any other professional of another field would. Her points were all true, it was false advertising, the balloons didn't match, they were blotchy, and not even enough in the kit to create what was in the picture.Thats the point of the review.

      I’m new to the game of balloon business, but as someone who has always used Amazon balloons in the past for personal events/parties, my first professional grade set up was a night and day difference.
      Some Amazon kits have been decent quality and I had no issues, but I you can feel the difference in the balloon quality, let alone see the difference.

    Prime example of “you get what you pay for.” I’ve used Amazon kits & I’ve used top notch brands. The kit examples do tend to be misleading & the balloons are considerably thinner. You can’t compare a kit price to a balloon artist’s pricing. She’s charging for labor, artistry, & expertise. Same reason you pay more for a professional to do jobs for you that you could DIY for half the price.
    She knew the quality from the get go, so sure, she was going to be biased, but great example for others to see the comparison between a DIY kit & a professional grade product.

    Hello Julia - I have discovered your channel and I have to say - I am enjoying - I can listen to you because - You are to the point - not showing off your home or talking about what you had for dinner or if your kid is cute - sorry I just had to say all of that - Well anyway and also your information is brief but informative ( I discovered another person who I also enjoy but they kinda go on and on on the topic to the point of I almost forgot what they were talking about ) - With all due respect - your work is amazing, and I would love to join your group - except at this point - the rate is too high for me....I will hope to learn from what I see from you thus far and perhaps in the future I may be able to join.

    I think you should have added the same back drop stand to the Amazon Kit like you did with yours, along with the decor.
    Seems like as a professional you could make it work either way, but for viewers to get a better understanding and clearer picture of the way it will look it’s best to have both stand look similar to compare cosmetic flaws.
    Try again because they look the same only difference is the colors and the amount

      Nope, helium isn't used in most garlands...they are usually tied down with 260 balloons or like fishing line.

    As a professional balloon artist, when clients call for pricing they are often taken aback by the price because they will send me the picture from Amazon and say, “I can get these balloons for less than $20 and you charge how much???” Some will have the nerve to say, “I will buy the kit will you put it together for me? “. Of course I would never accept that - you know the client that brings up the Amazon kit will never pay what I charge. Oh well.
