This week on What's Up Wednesday, new products, an update on an upcoming product, and a flash 50% off sale.

We have created three new home and kitchen items with a Balloon Fiesta theme. Available today is the new trivet/pot holder, not-slip jar opener and Lillie Pad.

The 7.5 inch diameter Trivet/pot holder is a silicone, non-slip, dishwasher safe item that's heat resistant to 600 degrees Fahrenheit. Each design features different colorful balloons in flight. What a way to decorate and protect your table!

Everyone needs a little help in opening those tightly sealed jars. So how about a silicone non-slip jar opener. This thin, 6 inch, but super "grippy" item will provide the extra grip you need to open the most stubborn jars.

Finally, the 4 inch Lillie Pad is perfect for so many things. Billed as the Coaster for everything, not only does it serve that purpose, it's soft enough to never break, has a raised lip forming a cup or bowl that is strong enough to hold water and protect your furniture. It works under a wine bottle, candles, sponges, plants, and can even serve as a candy dish. It also features beautiful balloons in flight. The pattern varies on all these items, providing a variety of scenes to brighten up your home as you use these everywhere.

We know it's only the beginning of March, but our 2026 Official Balloon Fiesta Calendar is shaping up nicely. The photos have been chosen and are now being edited to fit the calendar format. The text is being written and the date grid is being updated. Expect to see the 2026 calendar on sale in July.  Did you know the 2025 calendar has nearly an hour of video embedded in those QR codes on each page? We have a few 2025 calendars still available, and all the videos are available on our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/feed/playlists While you're there, subscribe to get notifications when a new video is posted.

And now for that flash sale. It's on everything Silipint. The Silipint products are made from non-toxic silicone that won’t fade, dent, crack or shatter. Built to last a lifetime, these sustainable products are extremely versatile. The obvious use is for drinking, but considering these items can go in the oven, in the dishwasher, and just about everywhere else, use them as a baking dish, er, mug. Of just to hold anything. Our Balloon Fiesta branded Slipint line includes shot glasses, wine cups, drink cups, and even tumblers with a lid and straw. Each item is available in a wide variety of colors for you to mix or match. Our entire line is now on sale for at least 50%. Stock up today for the warmer spring and summer weather. 

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