Angry Bird

Had a birthday delivery today for a 5 y.o. boy. Used the tutorial from Cody Williams. Check it out here.


Hello Kitty

There's been so hello kitty posts on facebook in general the last few weeks that I thought I'll join the buzz and make a Hello Kitty too! Hope you like it!

Angel



Alright, I know we don't see blue angels very often, but this didn't start off as an angel. My 4 y.o. wanted to make a person with the pink round balloon and blue heart balloon tied together. I told her it would be very wobbly.

Saw some angel pictures on search engines and decided to give it a go. Next time, I'll add the arms. But I thought it looked kinda cute like that too. At least when shown to people, they could tell me that it's an angel and not have to double guess! And I love blue. :)

Baby Rattle

Found this cute video tutorial on youtube for a baby rattle. See video here. Done by warrenann. He used two 5" clear round balloons and gumballs, but I only had a 11" clear round balloon and made my own balloon balls to stuff in.

So, here's the end result and I hope my 15 month old will enjoy it as much as I do! :)

Ray Gun

My 4y.o. daughter is into fighting monsters these days and she told me that I am to kill them all. She gave me a miserable block of building block to use as a gun and I told her that it is certainly not big enough to kill all the monsters.

Remembering a photo of a balloon ray gun somewhere, I made one from memory. If you know who the creator is, please message me and I'll credit him/her accordingly. I can't find the picture anywhere and will keep looking.

So, here it is, our ray gun for fighting monsters and daddy too.

Duck with 5" heart

Bought some 5" hearts in my last balloon purchase a and gave this duck a try. Was too lazy to get a 160Q out of the bag, so a 260Q substituted it. It would look better with the 160Q. Sigh.. It doesn't pay to be lazy!


Instructions from Ralph Dewey here.

Penguin

Made this penguin with instructions from Holly's penguin tutorial on youtube. It's really quick and cute. I changed a few minor things. Thinks the feet look cuter in Holly's tutorial. But I like the cheeks and beak. :)

Gave it to a friend's daughter who came to drop off a bag of toys.
