Hi Everybody, I'm Edward Muñoz and I'm here at burton + BURTON. Today, I want to show you how
you can create a graduation yard stake. Are you ready? I'm ready.
I will create this design just using my hand pump.This is easier for you just in case you have just the hand pump.
When I say 4 pumps, remember, it's just 1, 2, 3, 4. We need to create
two different quads. The top quad will be 15 pumps and the second level
quad will be just 10 pumps. Right now we to start creating the bigger quad with 15 pumps.
I'm using a Chrome® silver 11 inch balloon and 11 inch onyx black.
15 pumps.
When you have the two balloons ready you have to tie them together.
Just stretch the neck, wrapping around two times, and tie. 1, 2 and tie.
This is the first duplet and we need to repeat the process one more time to create the second duplet.
When you have the first duplet and the second one just put together in the center and now twist.
Here you have your first quad with 15 pumps. We need to create the second quad with just 10 pumps.
After you do that process just put on the bottom the bigger quad and then we need to tie
both together. Just hold one balloon neck from the bigger quad and sit the smaller quad on top.
I keep holding the balloon neck wrapping around two balloons because we need to
tie the center and tie with any other balloon neck.
Now it's time to air-fill the number balloon. After you have the number fully inflated just
hold it in between a table and yourself. The benefit is being hands-free.
Take a flat 260Q balloon. How to make it flat? Just take out all of the extra air
inside of the balloon. Holding here, stretch and tie.
Now just stretch the balloon and wrap down the entire neck of the foil and tie. Two times.
Take your base and sit the number on top and stretch to the bottom
and tie two times.
Like this. Now it's time to put it in the yard stake.
The yard stake is easy to assemble and it comes in different pieces to put together.
Now slide it in and as you see it's important that the base is
the same height of the bigger quad because that way if you twist those two balloons
the balloon will hold around the pole. Ok? Twist the balloon
two times and now if you see, you are twisting around the first quad,
but now we need to repeat the same process on the smaller quad. Ok, to hold in the center
because if you don't twist those two quads it will be like that. Look how stable it is.
I will use satin ribbon. Black satin ribbon.
I think it will look pretty. It's just an extra touch.
Look for the center and slide it in the small quad. Now let me clean the edges of my ribbon.
It looks nicer.
Now our design is ready to take out to the yard to celebrate our graduates.
I hope you enjoyed this video. I really did. It's sell-able and easy to make.
