This week on What’s Up Wednesday, we’re rolling out a new Pin of the Month — which means another Pin Trading and Shopping Saturday. Our Valentine’s special continues, and we’ve added a fun new item you’ll want to check out.

First, don’t forget our Valentine’s bonus: with any purchase of $25 or more, you can grab a pair of acrylic earrings for FREE. Just add items to your cart, including one of the special shape earring sets, and when your total exceeds $25, the earrings will automatically be reduced to free. This offer ends next Tuesday at midnight, so don’t wait.

The February Pin of the Month celebrates Valentine’s Day with a red heart-shaped balloon floating in a sky of hearts and puffy clouds. This design continues our holiday fantasy balloon theme and looks great displayed next to the first three pins in the series in the special shadow box frame. All previously released pins — and the shadow box — are still available, so it’s not too late to start or build your collection of this Pin of the Month series, which runs through October 2026.

Speaking of collecting, since we’re releasing a new pin this week, that means this Saturday is our next Pin Trading and Shopping Day at Balloon Fiesta. From 9:00 AM to Noon on Saturday, February 7, 2026, our Gift Shop will be open for shopping and order pickup, and one of our meeting rooms will be open for pin trading. Bring pins to trade, meet other collectors, or just stop by to see what’s out there and enjoy the morning.

While you’re here, check out our newest product — a bling hot air balloon keychain. We have 10 different styles, but only two styles are available online. These balloons are about 2 inches tall and come with a gold-colored chain and ring for keys or attaching just about anything. The two versions available online include a multi-colored version and a black, silver, and gold version. Additional colors are available in our Gift Shop at 4401 Alameda Blvd NE.

If you can’t make it here between 9 and 5 during the week, remember our 9:00 AM to Noon hours this Saturday. Quantities on the keychains are limited — we’re testing their popularity — so be the first on your crew to sport one and force us to order more.

Insider update: We just returned from a product show in Las Vegas and found some really cool new items we’ll be adding to the store in the months ahead. Stay subscribed to What’s Up Wednesday to be the first to know what’s coming next at Balloon Fiesta Stuff.

As always, thanks for your support of Balloon Fiesta Stuff and Balloon Fiesta.
