5" (12cm) minis are the balloons that make an organic garland look finished. They fill the gaps between the 12s and 18s, add texture, and let you push a second or third colour into a design without it taking over. Every Stylex colour comes in a 5" — pinks, neutrals, greens, blues, chromes and pastels — so the minis always match the bigger sizes exactly.
Sold in packs of 100 (chromes in packs of 50). Air-fill only at this size (a 5" won't float on helium for long). Pairs with 12" (30cm), 18" (45cm) and 36" (90cm) for a full garland kit.

Questions stylists ask
How many 5" per metre of garland?
Roughly 10–15 per metre on a standard organic garland, more if you like a dense, textured look. A pack of 100 covers about 7–8 metres of filler.
Can I double-stuff 5" balloons?
Yes — they're the easiest size to double-stuff for custom tones.
Do 5" minis come in chrome?
Yes. Chrome Bronze Gold, Silver, Rose Gold and the colour chromes are all stocked in 5".
