Abstract: A bulk balloon hanger for effectively supporting and displaying a plurality of noninflated mylar balloons. The bulk balloon hanger includes a hook for engaging a support rod or bar or other supporting structure, a curved bar having a permanent but slight bow effect along its length together with a straight channel along the length of the bar and a tension rod pivoted at one end of the bar and a hook-like clasp at the other end of the bar that engages the free end of the tension rod when the tension rod grips a plurality of noninflated mylar balloons between the tension rod and channel in the bowed or curved bar thereby providing an effective support for a plurality of noninflated mylar balloons.

Abstract: A life preserver-containing seat having a seat with a seat back and a seat bottom, a life jacket fitted within a cavity formed in the seat back, and a covering material having one edge joined to the seat back and extending across the life jacket. The covering material has another edge removably affixed to the seat back so as to expose the life Jacket beneath the covering material. The seat has a frame with a foam material received therewithin. The cavity is formed in the foam material. A hook-and-loop material extends around at least a portion of the periphery of the seat cavity. The covering material has a complementary hook-and-loop material removably engaging the material around the cavity. A foam insert is removably received within a central hole formed in the life jacket.
