Here's how to make a shark balloon out of a single balloon.
Let's inflate, leaving about five inches from the end.
Burp it, releasing a little air.
Tie it off.
We're going to start with a basic twist of about two inches,
followed by another basic twist about a little longer than this one here.
Now you're going to take your nozzle here and wrap it into here - essentially making a lock twist.
Take your nozzle and place it between the two basic twists.
This step adds security. So far, this is the
head of your shark. Now we're going to make tiny fins with two fold twists. Fold,
hold and now twist.
And make another one to match the first fold
and...
What we're going to do at this point is make a big fold twist
to encompass the front of our shark and then twist it back into here.
So do your best to wrap the balloon around. And then we're going to twist this.
See your shark forming here? Now we're going to make a dorsal fin.
Position the balloon up and make a basic twist of about two inches. Now you're going to want
this one to bend a little bit so we're going to make a lock twist. But instead of making
this second basic twist the same as this one, we're going to make it about half the size.
Now twist this into here to make the lock twist.
And to finish, twist the body maybe about
two and a half to three inches. Two small pinch twists. So you make a basic twist first.
Fold. Pull up and twist.
And one more.
Just
take out your markers and add some personality to your shark.
