Subject: Happy b-day life saver bouquet

Hi all, Today I made my first life saver bouquet, (I think thats what its
called???)  I made it for my boss on his birthday.  He was intriged and
couldnt believe balloons came in such different shapes and sizes. 

I did encounter some problems making it:

1) not all donuts were the same size, as much as I tried some seemed
slightly smaller and some slighty bigger.  How do you measure a donut
balloon???

2) I started by blowing up 3' balloon with helium and tying with mono line,
then I attached 5 different colored donuts, then the sand filled balloon
weight, my problem was the line was kinda loose and the 3' balloon was
wobbly.  I tyed the mono around the sand weight several times and I do mean
several.....lol  

At the end it did look good, but I could notice the slight imperfections.
Any advice on how to make better

Thanks
