How to collect resources from balloon decorations in Fortnite

Just like the new cakes, balloon decorations can be found at all major POIs and most landmarks as well. There's a high chance that the cakes and balloon decorations will be pretty close together. These decorations will be on bushes and other harvestable items.

In order to collect resources from these decorations, players need to break the item they are attached to. If they are hanging on to a bush, players can break the bush.

The challenge says it needs four to be completed, but one swing of a player's pickaxe will net more than four of whatever resource it is. Therefore, players will need to break four different items that the balloon resources are attached to.

In order to unlock all the free rewards, players only need to complete three of the challenges. The free rewards are the “4 Me???” Back Bling, "Hooplah Hammer" Pickaxe, and “4? Score!” emote.
