Balloon Store

Just opened. My Balloon Animals Store where you can purchase a assorted bag of balloons or pump.

More products will follow. But since most of the request were for where to buy the balloons and how to blow them up. I figured this is a good place to start.

Balloon Airplane

This balloon airplane was created by Stretch the Balloon Dude. You can see more of his balloon art at his portfolio on balloonhq.

I like this airplane. It uses different sizes for different parts. 260 for the body and wings, and 160 for the landing gear. I also liked how he did the propellers. It looks like a 160 layered within a lager balloon. It gives it a nice flat look that you come to expect from an airplane propeller.

I always appreciate when balloon artists put more than the minimum amount of detail into a balloon sculpture.

"Balloon Bass/Juicy Brunette" by Addi

This is just too cool. Watch Addi play a function balloon bass. It is a great idea and I should really learn how to play one. I've made one myself, but am not musically inclined, just ask my humming instructor. It allows amazes me what people can create from a couple of balloons.

Balloon Eiffel Tower

Every so often I get a request for an Eiffel Tower from someone trying to be smart. While I can quickly create a four balloon creation that doubles for an oil rig as well as the famous landmark, my does not yet hold a candle to this one.

This Eiffel Tower was made by Patrick van de Ven and featured in Balloon Magic #48. It took him 10 hours to make.
Make no mistake, this is not eh kind of create that you would learn how to make from any balloon animal kit.

Simple Balloon Clown

This simple balloon clown was made by Zebrano le magicien from Switzerland.

It is a great example of making a simple multiple balloon creation. With just six balloons, you could make this juggling clown.

I'm sure that it would go over well with young kids and their parents.

Balloon Sponge Bob Hat

This Sponge Bob balloon hat was made by Emilio.

It is a great example of a simple hat that looks complex. This could be done easily for parties, restaurants, and line work. It is easily recognizable, and is sure to be a quick favorite no matter where you make it.

Balloon Bracelets

Here are two balloon bracelets that you can make with the help of a recent balloon hq column. Made by Dave Bigelow, these are two bracelets that are easy to learn. More and more bracelets are becoming popular. The ladybug is based on a design from one of Don Caldwell's DVDs.

Balloon Turkey Hat

This Balloon Turkey Hat is made by Ralph Dewey. It is simple to make and looks pretty good. Definitely some thing you could make at a restaurant or for line work.


Ralph was kind enough to post instructions for it. so go get your balloons and give it try.

Snowman Bracelet

This is my balloon picture of the day.

It is a simple snowman bracelet made by zebrano.
Inspired by Jeanine Von Essen, this bracelet uses 1 white bee body and scrap balloons.

I love creative uses of scraps. Other wise they just line the bottom of my car trunk.

80000 balloons and one skateborad equals one great video

Ok, I know this has nothing to do with balloon animals. But there are balloons. I saw this and thought it was pretty cool. Now all I need is a skateboard and 8000 balloons. It sure did look like a lot of fun.
