Begin by inflating white, pink flamingo, pineapple and pink beach balls, along with several yellow latex balloons and gold chrome balloons using a balloon pump.



Next, string the beach balls together onto 50 lb. fishing line. Start by running the end of the fishing line through the loop created by the plug of each ball and continue until you have a beach ball of each color on the line. Carefully pull the fishing line tight to create a cluster. Wind the fishing line around the cluster and tie a knot to keep them all together.

Now tie either a yellow or gold balloon onto the new cluster to "lock" them all in place. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 until you achieve the length of garland desired.

Now let's create a faux batik print using various leaves and a White Rectangular Polyester Tablecloth. Be sure to take your supplies to a well-ventilated area since you'll be using spray paint. To create the print, lay Large Artificial Monstera Leaves, Medium Polyester Palm Leaves, Large Palm Leaves and Artificial Tropical Leaves atop the tablecloth at varying angles. Add a looped piece of tape to the underside of each leaf to ensure they stay in place. Next, spray pink spray paint over the entire tablecloth until it is fully covered. Once the paint has dried, remove the leaves to reveal the faux leaf batik pattern!

To hang the newly created palm leaf backdrop onto the Backdrop Banner Frame you'll need to create a pocket at one end. Measure the length needed, fold the top part of the backdrop over and then simply run a bead of hot glue along the top under the fold to "hem" the fabric. Trim any excess fabric using scissors.

Now it's time to hang the backdrop. Assemble the Backdrop Banner Frame following the directions provided and then run the top bar of the frame through the pocket portion created on the backdrop. Secure the top bar to the opposite side of the frame.

Once the tablecloth has been secured onto the frame, hang the beach ball and balloon garland onto the top of the frame by tying the garland to the top bar using additional fishing line.

Next, hang a gold pineapple banner just under the beach ball and balloon garland by tying each end to opposite sides of the frame.

To finish off the tropical vibe, attach various Large Artificial Monstera Leaves, Medium Polyester Palm Leaves, Large Palm Leaves and Artificial Tropical Leaves to the beach ball and balloon garland using GlueDots® Clear Adhesive Dots.

Finally, stand back and admire your masterpiece while you wait for your guests to come and take selfies!
