Meri Meri Rainbow Fringe Happy Birthday Banner - 8' Party Garland with Excess Cord

Very simple to put up and super cute !

Beautiful perfect color combination and quality

Took it out of the box on the day of the party and it only had one fringe garland. I am returning. Super annoying.

I usually get balloon garlands for birthdays, but I've always liked Meri Meri and I wanted something cute and potentially reusable. This is not it! Because the fringed squares are made of paper, they don't stay flat and lovely. From the way they were packaged, half of them were bent. The banner looks rumpled -- not in a fun way, just in a cheap way. The glittered letters are also not attached to the pink squares. You have to line it up yourself. Everything is attached via cheap ribbon (the glitter letters are just attached on a string) and there's no way to attach it up to the wall attractively. I just tied the ends of the ribbon around some nails, but it's by no means chic or expensive. Worst of all, the letters shed, A LOT. Just taking the letters out of the box caused a small shower of glitter onto my countertop. I paid $20 and even that was too much. This is a $5 - 10 garland, at most. I'm returning it the first chance I get.
