Materials:

* Balloons that are transparent or translucent when inflated work best as they will allow you to see the confetti inside the balloon.

**The ribbon used in our sample is 5/8" wide but you can use a variety of ribbons including curling ribbon.

Place two or three jingle bells inside the balloon. Stretch the balloon opening slightly if need be.
Add some confetti to the inside of the balloon. An easy way to do this is to put the confetti into a small paper cup. Squeeze the cup a bit forming a pouring spout and pour the confetti in.
Inflate the balloon and knot it closed.
Tie an 18" piece of ribbon around the knot in the balloon.

Shake the balloon and enjoy the festive sound and look.
