I have used that plastic ribbon stuff that they use at construction sites. It comes in fluorescent colors and you buy it by the roll at Home Depot, Lowe's, etc. I think I have yellow, orange, and blue. Just cut it however long you want it.

Also, I got the idea from somewhere to attach the ribbons or scarves or whatever to those plastic sticks that come with the little balloons on them. I think you can buy the plastic sticks from Oriental Trading Co. or other party goods places. There are plastic things on the ends of the sticks that allow you to tie the streamers on. I think I used six lengths of ribbon, about a yard long. The ribbon is about an inch wide.
