When my son wanted a Minecraft theme for his birthday, I turned to a Pinterest search for ideas. I saw so many posts where people used markers to transform ordinary balloons, that I gave it a go myself - check it out:

All you need for this project is a few latex balloons in the appropriate colors and a permanent marker.
(Dollar Tree has a nice selection of both permanent markers and party balloons)
The balloons can be filled with helium or air, either will do. If using helium and your balloons are going to float, you will create your Minecraft faces holding the balloon right side up. Because I filled my balloons with air (and they were going to hang upside down), I flipped them over before drawing the faces.
Using block style lettering and simple geometric shapes, I drew the faces onto the inflated balloons.
And there you have it, simple Minecraft balloon decor!
