I would like my confetti balloons to float, can I inflate them with helium?

Confetti balloons are beautiful, especially when the pieces of confetti stick to the sides. This is easily achieved when you use air to inflate the balloons. If you use helium alone, the confetti may lay at the base of the balloon which is not so desirable. Either create static by rubbing and turning the balloon against clothing or partially fill the balloon with a small amount of air and the remainder with helium.    Due to the extra weight of the confetti, helium-filled confetti balloons will not have the same float time as standard latex balloons.
