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.
It’s so easy to do, especially when you’ve got a balloon-obsessed child tugging at your sleeve full of excitement and the promise of a magical party feels like a trolley load away.
For a while, I tried to be clever about it — saving the swirls, banners, and unused hats to reuse the next year. But then the theme would change, and I’d be left with a cupboard full of mismatched odds and ends that didn’t quite work together. Eventually, it all just felt like waste — wasted money, wasted space, and wasted materials.
That’s where Zero Balloons began — and it still shapes every decision we make today. The name pushes us to level up, because balloons are loved worldwide. They spark joy and memories of childhood happiness; some phycologists believe balloons tap into our sense of nostalgia. Reminding us of a simpler time when our worries are over cake and games - It's big shoes to fill, and we’re putting everything we can into it.

Zero Balloons is led by a small family team of artists and designers with years of building and creative experience. We love creating, painting, and crafting — so you don’t have to. Every display we make is hand-painted, reusable, and built in our 100% solar-powered home, studio & workshop.

From kids’ birthdays to milestone events, we design eco-luxury décor that transforms any space. Our displays are bold, vibrant, and designed to last. We’re currently developing a range of durable party displays and reusable products as an alternate to the disposable items we used to buy without thinking — balloons, plastic bunting, throwaway games, party bags, and more.

Because celebrating should never come at the cost of the planet. Families deserve a way to party that’s just as fun, stress-free, and surprisingly affordable — without the pile of stuff left over once the party’s over.
Our upcoming packages will be:
○ Beautifully coordinated — from backdrops to table pieces
○ Zero waste — reusable, recyclable, or compostable
○ Stress-free — décor, games, and keepsakes included
○ Surprisingly affordable — driven by creativity and community, not big markups.
We want to make it easy for families to choose eco-friendly celebrations that feel magical today and meaningful tomorrow.
This is more than décor — it’s a movement towards a better way of celebrating. And we’d love you to be part of it.
With love & colour,
Michelle – Founder of Zero Balloons
