If it's not already obvious from the title...I have no idea what to call this DIY. Basically...I'm making this:
Here's how!
What you'll need:
Balloon(s), tacky glue, sponge brush, hairspray, and whatever twine or string you'd like to use!
First step:
Blow up balloon and tie twine around knot.
Second step:
As best as you can, spread some Tacky glue over the surface of balloon. (This does not have to be perfect and the balloon does not have to be entirely covered- this is only so the twine has something to hold onto as you begin wrapping. Also, do this step as quickly as possible so the glue doesn't dry.)
Step three:
Begin wrapping twine around balloon randomly, stopping when you reach the point above.
Step four:
Tie end around random section of twine, preferably near the top.
Here comes the messy part!
Step five:
Squeeze glue into hands and pat and rub glue over entire surface of balloon. (Don't worry, rub your hands together and the glue comes right off!)
Step six:
Spray balloon with hairspray to set everything in.
Now wait a few hours for glue to dry. If after an hour or so, the twine doesn't feel as if it's hardening, you may want to do another coat of glue and hairspray.
Finally, after it's dry, pop the balloon & pull it out. (Don't worry if the surrounding twine goes a little crazy, just put it back in place!) Cut an additional piece of twine and tie to the top to hang up your masterpiece!
Stay fabulous!
