Locals to Know is a series showcasing Grand Strand locals sharing their local recommendations!

Meet Kimberly, owner of POP + Glam Balloon Company.

What is POP + Glam Balloon Company?

I am a balloon decorator/designer/artist. My specialty is organic balloon garland, but I offer a wide variety of balloon decor.

I take my work very seriously. I would never provide a client with a product I wouldn’t want for my own party. I do my best to meet or exceed expectations, every time.

How did you get into balloon designs?

This is a very long story! But I guess I’ll try to shorten it. My husband and I took a leap of faith and left everything we know hoping for a calmer, less stressful life that allowed us more time together as a family. We are both in healthcare, at the time, in fast paced stressful jobs working 60+ hours a week. We decided it was enough! I quit my job and took some time off, enjoying my young boys. But I was quickly bored! The boys‘ birthdays came and while looking for decorations, I found some really cute balloon designs. I didn’t even know balloon designers/artists were a thing – I always bought balloons at the party store! I thought – “I can make that!”…and I sure could. It just took off from there.

Why do you love it?

I love seeing people happy, and balloons are fun!
