Upside-Down Mobile   (+5)  [vote for, against]
Balloons bob and bump in the slightest breeze

Tired of your fatigued houseplant? Want to perk up a party table with an upturned chandelier? The upside-down, helium-filled mobile is a gas to watch and educational for the kids too. The tastefully colored balloons, made from low-leakage foil, come in various forms: spheres, cubes, egg-shapes, etc. They strain against a base, via tiers of strings/ribbons and cross ribs/wires.

See if you can grab a croissant off this floating serving tray

Or you could get one of those upside down mobiles that uses the heat from a lamp to flutter tissue paper.
