Tip hat instructions - Simple Rabbit Hat

Lets start a simple Rabbit hat using two 260 balloons, one white and one pink.

Inflate the pink 260 completely and burb before tying. Make a basic helmet style hat. ...See pic 1

Inflate the white 260 completely and burb generously before tying. Find the center of the balloon and twist. At this point connect the white balloon by wrapping it around one of the small end bubbles on the helmet. ...See pic 2

Hold both lengths of the white balloon together and measure off a handswidth (or maybe a little more) and twist together. ...See pic 3

Lay the double white bubble against the top center bubble of the pink helmet. Connect to the hat by running one "ear" of the white balloon around the center spine of the hat. ...See pic 4

Shape ears and add artwork. ... See pic 5

I love that and your instructions plus the pix help. Would this be difficult for a newbie like me to do as I have never done any balloon sculpture before??

Oh Good, you saw this Markie!

I made these for my kids at church tonight. They are adorable! I made blue & white for the boys & pink & white for the girls. I only got 1 picture of one little boy & it's adorable.

Thanks again for this on Fitz!
