Sand Balloon

As a simple balloon centerpiece base, use an empty balloon filled with as much sand or gravel as can be funneled in. Wrapping the balloon in clear cellophane or tying a few curled ribbons around its neck make it look more decorative.
Mirror
-
Using a mirror as the weight for the balloons allows the guests to see the centerpiece both when they are looking up and when they are looking down at the table. Tape the balloon strings to the bottom of the mirror and set the mirror on the table with the balloon strings coming out from all sides.

Themed Item
-
At a party with a specific theme, tie the balloons to an item that matches the theme. For example, a teddy bear could be the base at a child's slumber party or a framed wedding photo at an anniversary party.
