Fill your Mylar letter balloon with air (helium isn’t necessary if you’re creating a banner with the balloons like I did).

Paint the front side of the Mylar letter balloon with green craft paint.

Allow the paint to dry completely. Using a black permanent sharpie marker, draw small black lines all over the balloon to resemble cactus needles.

String your cactus letter balloons on a ribbon and hang!
