Who says a princess can't be fancy, but still strong enough to protect herself?  this is a fun and fancy sword for all the princesses who are tougher than they look.

646 Rosebud


The 646 rosebud is an easy enough shape, but working with the big balloons is trick if you don't do it very often.  Just takes a little practice and the result really makes people say "Wow!"

Basic Mermaid

The basic mermaid is fun to customize.  I always ask what color hair and swimsuit.  Kids can get creative and I've made more than one mermaid with blue or green skin and a pink tail.  This one is a little more traditional.  

Link O Loon Turtle

A little turtle with a golden shell.  Of course you could use other colors of link o loons, but I like the gold ones.

colorful dog

Add a little color to your puppy with some fancy ears and a big bright nose.

Simple Monkey

 A little monkey to climb any palm tree or swing from any vine.  

Dinosaur

A basic dinosaur for all your t-rex fans!

Basic Ballerina

One way to do a basic and fast ballerina.  Change things up, add wings and you've got an easy fairy too.

Peacock Hat

I love the peacock hat because it's big, showy and dances when you walk.  It's a very fun hat to  make and even more fun to wear.

Frog

This little frog looks like a tree frog if you do the colors right.  Or make it in brown for a toad.

Two Balloon Airplane

A two balloon airplane.  Cute, and doesn't take long to make.

Basic Helicopter

The helicopter is always a favorite.  I like to add sound effect when I'm handing it over.  It's one of those things that people often don't see until you're almost finished.  I like that, because the look of happy surprise they get when the finally see the sculpture coming together is pretty sweet.  

Big Kitty

An extra big kitty cat!

Rocking Horse

Take a basic horse, add a bit or color for the rockers and you have an adorable rocking horse!

Big Dog

What's better than a balloon dog?  A bigger balloon dog!  This one is made with 350s or 360s depending on the brand you choose.

Big Cat

This cat makes a big impression, but still goes together quickly.  It used 350s or 360s - depending on the brand you choose - for the body along with a bit of scrap for the nose and a round for the muzzle & a 260 for the eyes.

Basic Pig

A cute little piggy that uses a small tulip twist for the nose and a roll through for the head.  

Simple Butterfly

Butterflies are bright, colorful and very popular.  Like all butterflies this one starts with caterpillar. The head is tulip tisted, but you can use a pinch twist if you're not comfortable with tulip twists.

Simple Tulip

Tulips are handy shapes to know.  I often add one to my bunny or bear.  Just a little extra color that makes people smile.
