Hey everyone! So I have a Klutz book on hair and bows from 1994 or something like that... It may be a little out of date but still totally fun! I've learned how to do all kinds of hairstyles from this book. Anyways they have a bow called the "Balloony Bow." Super cute! So I decided to make one using water balloons instead of regular sized balloons; it makes the bow not too big so you can use them for pigtails. :)
Materials:
1 Package water balloons (I got mine from the Dollar Store)
Two barrettes (also from the Dollar Store)
The first thing you're going to want to do is sort the balloons by color. Put them in the order you like. I did mine in the standard rainbow, but once it's all put together you can't exactly tell.
Next just tie the balloons around the barrette in a double knot. Make sure each consecutive balloon points the opposite direction to add some variety. Also, see the tiny hole on the ends of each barrette? I tied two balloons around each hole so the ends wouldn't be bare.
And that's it! Just keep tying the balloons until you've run out of room. You can fluff them up to make them go the exact directions you want. Have fun! And don't forget to give them to a super cute little girl to enjoy!
