Dear All,

The model of the month is back! And unlucky for you all I am the person who has created something for you all to try. I wanted to make something that was quick and easy, ideal for some of our members who are just starting out and to give all you seasoned pros an opportunity to show you are better than me by sharing ideas and creating something better!

This is a crocodile hat that I made under pressure at a wedding last Friday. It's simple but the kids loved it.

The challenge is the make a model just like mine and to use as few balloons as possible.

I will post instructions and step by step photos once members have had a go.

Good luck - p.s. happy for someone else to volunteer next month  :lol:

My version of the hat. I put some side teeth in and moved his eyes sideways, then took a picture with the side teeth off.

Hi
This is my first ever go at a model of the month. I haven't been doing this very long. I went for a bit of a variation- a croc bracelet.

I have only just found the model of the month section, but will endeavour to have a go (and no doubt fail miserably) with new posts.  I have nicked iancarlo4's design for this croc hat, but the kids seem to love it so sticking with it.
