You may need to adjust the balloon instructions if you’re using different size balloons but the basic technique will be the same. It should just take you one or two goes to work out the best spacing of your twists for the balloons you’re working with. Get comfortable with the odd balloon popping as you practise. But do practise a few before you get your kit out at a children’s party as the more you model, the less you pop. Make sure you leave space at the end that’s uninflated – you need this as as you twist, the air will be pushed to the tip. By leaving a tail of about 3inches, you’ll stop the balloon popping as you work.
