Not sure if this is in the right place - this is my first post

I am looking for ideas for teddy bear models using more than 1 balloon, can anyone point me in the right direction
Thanks

We did a multi balloon teddy in the model of the month earlier in the year;

Go on have a go :)  the instructions are also on the link, what could possible go wrong?
If you do get into trouble, if you post a picture of where you get up to I'm sure we'll all try & help you on the road to making the teddy.

I have now tried adding a different coloured nose to the bear (learnt something new already!), and it adds a lot to the finished model. However i am finding that the first bubble of the main balloon is forming more of a donut shape, what am i doing wrong please?
Thanks

When you tie the two balloons together the small nose bubble has to have an inch (25mm) of uninflated balloon so that the shape of the nose stays in place, as in this picture;
