Instructions for
the
"Princess Tiara"
By Pioneer® Balloon Company
Labor: About 15 Minutes |
|
1. Inflate a 260Q balloon until
the inflated portion is long enough to fit the person
wearing the Tiara. |
|
2.
Make a 2" bubble. To make a bubble, twist a balloon
at least 3 times in one direction, then make another twist
at the appropriate bubble length. Make a 3" bubble,
and another 2" bubble, then tie the two ends of the
balloon together to make a circle. Remove any excess balloon. |
|
NOTE: When twisting a balloon, always
make each twist in the same direction. To twist several
bubbles in a row, hold the first bubble with your little
finger to prevent it from untwisting. |
|
3.
Inflate a second 260Q, leaving 6" uninflated and
tie. Then, tie the knot of this 260Q to the point on the
first one where the two ends meet. |
|
4.
Make two ½" pinch twists, and position them
on one side of the circle with the remaining inflated
portion of the balloon extending upward. |
|
5.
Make a 2" bubble, ½" bubble, and another
2" bubble. Wrap the twist at the end of the second
2" bubble around the first twist in the circle. Make
two ½" pinch twists and position them on one
side of the circle with the remaining inflated portion
of the balloon extending upward. |
|
6.
For the main peak in the Tiara, make a 3" bubble,
½" bubble, and another 3" bubble. Wrap
the twist at the end of the second 3" bubble around
the twist at the end of the circle. Make two ½"
pinch twists and position them on one side of the circle
with the remaining inflated portion of the balloon extending
upward. |
|
7.
Make a 2" bubble, ½" bubble, and another
2" bubble. Wrap the twist at the end of the second
2" bubble around the last twist in the circle. Make
two ½" pinch twists and position them on one
side of the circle with the remaining inflated portion
of the balloon extending upward. Deflate the remaining
inflated portion, tie a knot, and remove the excess balloon. |
|
8.
Pinch twist the three ½" bubbles at the peaks
of the Tiara to complete the figure. |
