Balloon Chat

I have a party tomorrow that has ordered a few balloons to take home, I always pre-make and while doing so thought what nice colours they looked and perhaps an idea to post them all on here. Sometimes a one balloon model can get you out of trouble.
So here are a few of them, I had to make a few more and I was trying to remember all the ones I used to make, I'm sure in time I will add to the collection when my memory comes back.
I see a party game here, put them all in a room, then everyone leaves the room while you remove one and then people have to guess which one is missing :D
I think I would not be very good at that Rob.
I have just pictured all individually and have over 20 to post. I've started to make a list of the other one balloon models I make, trouble is I forget.
Here is the first one.
Quote from: "Graham Lee"Here is the first one.
Nice horse :P
Carrying on from the horse although in my eyes it's a one balloon parrot.
So there is no confusion I will name all the models I post ;)
Dolphin
Flower
Rabbit
I do have another variation on the dolphin to post later.
I know its a parrot Graham :) I was only pulling your leg.
Its your version of the 1 balloon Rabbit that I always do Graham, always a winner :D
Like !
waiting to see the rest of the designs :D
Ladybird bracelet
Mouse
Pig
I was talking tonight about one balloon animals with a friend, and how they are the most awesome to make, and I made the Poodle on a motorbike, mickey mouse jugeiing on a unicycle, and my favourite squirrel, like grahams mouse.
Will make them tomorrow with pics xx
The ladybird bracelet is very popular, As is the flower bracelet which I'm sure is from one of Grahams DVDs. These kind of things are my bread and butter for after my birthday show.
Hippo
Monkey
Frog
Squirrel
Teddy
Snake
Dolphin, first time I made this one.
Rocking Horse
A different version of a one balloon frog
Swan
Sword
Poodle, I never add the bobbly tail as children then keep coming back when it dis-appears.
You could tie a knot so it stays but this looks a little untidy. I think there is enough poodle in the rest of the balloon.
I posted the link to this one balloon thread over on facebook and it has had over 100 hits since then today, I think it's sad that of those 100 people there is not one comment added
or a variation on a theme posted. Just thought I'd mention it, probably should not have, but there, I did!
Been decorating today but did like the rocking horse and had a quick go this morning. Need to do it again and will then take a picture
Here we are
Slight variation
Little dinosaur I like to do but not practices much. It does keep changing a little each time
Dog
Butterfly
Turtle
Dont do many one balloon models but here is a dove I do.
Thelma's dove is one of my favourite one balloon models, along with my yellow wobbly flower in a vase :)
Little Pony
Space Gun/hair dryer
Bike
I like the bike, will give it a try :)
tried the one balloon bike..
A couple of Fish designs and a Gun.
Shield and Two Dinosaurs.
learn from Youtube (thanks to Mr Michael Longerman) a few one-balloon models, heart, fish and kissing dogs
A few more,
Plane
Swan
Shield/plane
Rhino, I got his rhino idea from a design from someone at the care and share day at Bishops Stortford this week.
My version is the first picture.
Amy made the rhino at the Bishops Stortford day, second picture in the post above.
I made the Rhino for quite a while similar to the hippo and then last week changed the look of the mouth/head section with the smaller tulip twist and pinch twist.
I have to admit I've been a bit of a snob when it comes to one balloon models but these designs have made me rediscover the delight that can be created from a single balloon...
I was at the museum this afternoon with my son and while he was busy poring over the dinosaur artifacts I got a little bored and pulled out the red pump I always keep in my bag to make a one balloon dinosaur for a young boy. I thought I was being quite discreet but instantly I had a throng of children around me! :lol:

That's a nice little story, there can be no one about so get the balloons out and a swarm seems to appear from nowhere.
Another one balloon dog that I made today.
q
Crocodile
Giraffe
Various swords
& Gun
Not forgetting elephants!
learned from Sergey Loginov (thanks) via youtube , a cat (hello kitty) and a dog
Made a variation on a one balloon 160 bird design.
I made this last night, a one balloon snail.
Racing cars!
I made these a couple of days ago David after you posted the cars onto facebook.
I forgot to post them.
I then added a little more artwork.
A one balloon bulldog, which I believe was heavily influenced from a design
Thelma Levett showed at one of the juggling conventions.
I forgot about the camel, it's not been video'd for balloontube.
Perhaps I will have to do a few more one balloon designs another time.
I usually put the computer on and while it's booting up inflate a 260 and just play.
I ended up with a side wall sort of bubble and it turned into the elephant.
I was having a play yesterday, trying out an Owl.
Still needs a lot of work.
A one balloon dog with a scrap.
Thanks to David Crofts (Crofty) for the muzzle idea.
I was trying for a one balloon teddy from a 160.
The head section looks a little too high.
Just changed the head structure slightly and it looks more pleasing to my eye.
PS, these are the first pictures with my new canon G12 that is second hand.
Long live the canon G12 and hopefully the zoom on this one will have a long life.
I posted the one balloon sausage dog the other day with a link to the tutorial
over on Facebook, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ordx2ooMEE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ordx2ooMEE)
I then made the variation from a 160 white balloon.
These are all winners and workers.
I like the parrot on a perch which I made for the missus the other day (having been watching a Graham Lee one balloon model DVD), and then the love birds on perch, always a favourite and then another sort of perch which was a fish with the one balloon bit being the fishing rod. We know how to have a laugh
