What We’re Working On Right Now
With the studio reset and ideas flowing again, we’ve been spending time refining a few key pieces as we prepare to open the Zero Balloons online store.
Zero Balloons Journal | Hand-Made Designs & Creative Inspiration
Hi, I’m Michelle — a mum, professional artist, and creative director at Zero Balloons. I believe celebrations can become inspiring and magical without all the plastic waste.
Like many parents, I love throwing parties that light up kids’ faces — but I don't like the deflated balloons, the throwaway confetti, the plastic party bags that end up in the bin (or worse). So, I started experimenting… painting, building, and designing hand-made alternatives that are colourful, creative, and kid-approved.
This is my journey to reimagine decorations — and you’re invited to come along.
After the Festive Rush

Colourful Balloon Alternatives Kids Actually Love
When you think of kids’ parties, balloons are usually the first thing that comes to mind. They’re bright, bouncy, and festive — but unfortunately, they’re also one of the most harmful single-use decorations out there. Once the party’s over, they either sit in landfill or, worse, end up in waterways where they can hurt wildlife.

If there’s one party trend that’s lighting up events across Brisbane and beyond, it’s giant light-up numbers. Bold, bright and instantly iconic, these illuminated numbers are the centrepiece every celebration deserves—no balloons, no waste, just pure glowing magic.

The Story behind Zero Balloons
Like so many parents, I’ve been swept up in the party aisle at Spotlight. Balloons, plastic streamers, disposable confetti — all ending up in my trolley because I just wanted my child’s party to feel magical.
