I saw a game like this in a catalog...and decided to try to make it with balloons....and it worked :-) One of the rings I left empty..the second one I put a small bean in it for a little weight. The empty ring actually worked better. I am working on turning it into a hat...I think it would be fun :-)

Wow Tonya,

What a great idea, especially with Halloween on the way.

Love it :D

I saw this on Facebook and was impressed there too. I may well be having a go at this as it looks so much fun.

Brilliant!!!! Would love to know of any other ideas for balloons games.

Clive (Emazdad) and I came up with a balloon hat many years ago which we called a basketball hat . . . . . a baseball style hat with a long thread holding a small balloon on the end of it. The idea was to flick your head back and try and catch the ball in the hoop section of the hat.

That probably makes no sense at all :? I'll try and find a pic and post it here.

I like that other hat game too....I'll have to try and remember that.
Here is a smaller 160 version of the spider on a headband...and a big spider ring toss hat next to the headband. I also tried it as a big jack-o'-lantern ring toss hat.

Tonya, you know I think your spider game is awesome. I hope you also know that I have so stolen it and intend to use it at my Tuesday restaurant as a hat (but with just a simple helmet hat base). :D

So you have an awesome spider game or two, and a darn cool looking pumpkin game... where's the octopus version. ;)

Thanks for sharing the games!
Happy twisting,
Bonnie, The Balloon Lady
