✨ MARNIE’S 13 GOING ON 30 ✨
Another year older, another beautifully challenging theme from Marnie. 🤍
This year’s brief? 13 Going On 30 — and with absolutely no balloons available on the market to bring the theme to life, this one called for a little creativity, imagination and a lot of attention to detail. ✨
Inspired by the most iconic elements of the film, I created a bespoke balloon stack featuring:
🎀 Bold, clashing tones inspired by Jenna’s unforgettable dress
🖤 Thriller
✨ Wishing Dust
🏠 The iconic Dollhouse
😴 The sleepover eye-mask
A completely bespoke design, created from scratch to capture the nostalgia, personality and playful glamour of 13 Going On 30 — without relying on a single off-the-shelf themed balloon. 🎈
Because sometimes the best designs are the ones you simply can’t buy. ✨
Happy 13th birthday, Marnie! 🤍
