What a Balloon Artist Does in Rhode Island
“Balloon artist” covers two different kinds of work. Balloon twisters make sculptures and animals live at a party, usually for children. Balloon décor artists design installations for a space: organic garlands, arches, columns, ceiling pieces and statement backdrops, built to a color palette and installed before guests arrive.
Caliella does the second kind. Each piece starts with the venue, the palette and how the room should feel when guests walk in, then is built in layered sizes and finishes for that space. Our lead designer, Ines, plans every installation, from a single focal point at a baby shower to a lit marquee backdrop for a corporate event.
