The gold foil balloon letter Y is an inflatable capital letter Y made of metallic foil, measuring approximately 41 cm and mounted on a plastic stick. Use it to spell out a name, initial, or short word containing a Y, for example for a birthday or a party at home. The two diagonal arms above the straight stem make the letter easy to read from a distance.

Filling a letter balloon with your own breath
You fill a letter balloon of this size with air, and a balloon filled with air will not float but will lie flat or hang. That is why a stick is included: use it to place the Y upright in a flower arrangement, a vase, or on a block among the dishes on the party table. Inflate the letter gently until the arms and stem are taut, so that the shape is clearly legible.
How to arrange a name with a Y neatly in a row?
You can spell a name such as Yara, Yusuf, Amy, or Ruby by adding the Y to other letter balloons of the same size and in the same colour, so that all the letters are the same height. Insert the sticks to the same depth in the holder, so that the top of the word remains straight. If you want to create more atmosphere around the name, place gold-coloured decorations around it, such as confetti on the table or a few round balloons in a subtle colour, so that the letters remain the centre of attention. For a short message, a small gap between the words works better than an extra balloon.
Order the Y balloon and place the birthday person's name upright between the cake and the presents.
