What about a stuffed owl? These start at $3

Re: balloon weights ideas for owl theme
i thought about that too i found these that are really cute but i dont think they would be heavy enough to hold balloons down? http://www.1stwishes.com/Look-Whoos-1-Owl-Plush/66802/PartyItemDetail.aspx

Re: balloon weights ideas for owl theme
this may be too weird for some, but what about tootsie pops? I can't think "owl" without thinking "how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop?!" 
they're sold in bunches-

Re: balloon weights ideas for owl theme
Are you crafty? Maybe you can make some using felt and scrap fabrics. Add some beans to the bottom when stuffing, for weight.

Question- why do you think it would be weird for some people?

I think she means because some people may not know of that ad campaign with the owl and the tootsie pops.

Re: balloon weights ideas for owl theme
You know, my first thought was an owl ceramic or pottery planter or flower pot. Owls are big now so I see them everywhere. Check the dollar stores or target.
If you do not have too many tables, it may not be too pricey.
You can fill them with candy or a potted flower/plant.

Re: balloon weights ideas for owl theme
Just got an email from Land of Nod and they had these cute owl lunch bags for $13 each. Thought of you!
LON owl lunch bag
Again, not sure how many tables you have but if not too many, you can make the investment, then save them to give as gifts in the future... if you know a couple little girls to give it to!
And like I said, owls are pretty popular so you may be able to find some type of owl bag or pencil case at the dollar store.
