Abstract
A reusable, ornamental air-filled balloon structure includes a large, elongate, unbalanced upper ornamental chamber. The chamber has a valve on its bottom for inflating for use and deflating for storage of the balloon structure. A lower base ornamental chamber, that is adapted to rest on a flat surface or plane, has a centralized pocket with an aperture for transversely receiving the bottom of the upper chamber. A hidden valve for inflating the lower chamber for use and deflating for storage is provided. The upper chamber air valve is capable of being passed through the aperture and anchored to the lower chamber to secure the two chambers together while the upper chamber stays in an upright condition ideal for display. Common household filled cans are placed in the hidden centralized pocket to weigh the balloon structure down and keep it in place. The height of the upper ornamental chamber is at least three times taller than the height of the lower base chamber.
