My favorite balloons to twist
This big cupcake was for a very special birthday for a most fabulous friend!
I followed this video tutorial by Dante Longhi. This one took some nights. I ended up not using one layer, as it made the cupcake too tall and it looked more like a drink. I transported the cupcake in 3 parts/layers and easily put it together at the final destination.
We got to spend the weekend with our nephew and niece, and we put together this humungous heart for their parents’ anniversary! It was fun building the heart balloon together! Happy anniversary A&A! 🙂
I’ve made this one before, but this time we made it red with a pink border, which my niece picked. Check out the very talented Sue Bowler’s instructions for how to make this!
Happy halloween! This giant pumpkin balloon was made for a Fall Harvest Party. Afterwards, I fixed the popped balloons and it sat in my living room for a week and was used as a pumpkin playhouse! I removed one balloon in the back so our playhouse could have a window.
Happy Birthday to my friend, Carmen! Now you’ve got two big hearts!
Check out Sue Bowler’s instructions for how to make this. It took me about 2 hours. You’ll use 79 Quick Links/Link-O-Loons and 78 5″ balloons. I inflated the balloons to 7″ and 9″, and the resulting heart was humongous (though I was still able to squeeze the balloon into our SUV for transport.)
This wearable raspberry balloon is probably the largest balloon I’ve made (besides the organic balloon arch.) I listed it under “hard” for difficulty, but it’s mostly more time-consuming than hard.
I used 186 balloons, mostly link-o-loons and round balloons. There are 6 horizontal chains and 8 vertical chains of link-o-loons. I added two 260 segments inside for handlebars.
Happy birthday Kirsten!
