Hi,

If you are planning to make costumes or outfits eg Dresses etc.... do you need to double stuff the balloons you
use or is it mainly for colour variations??

If perhaps someone can shed some light on stuffing and when you should use this,please explain to me!!

Thanks

Norm

Good question, I have wondered that as well.

DoubleStuffing to me is most useful for making details last longer and to achieve different shapes.

Doublestuffing thin balloons means they lose a lot less air and so keep their shape much longer.

Otherwise Doublestuffing for tricky shapes seems to go by the word distortion now.  The cute little Ed Chee strawberry is a good example.

Usually only decorators use it for colour only...

For certain circumstances, I use double stuffing for stability/rigidity.  Example, I make a baby buggy and the cross pieces on the bottom are double stuffed so that they do not bend or wobble too much under the weight of the buggy.

Thanks guys, that answers my question
