Hey guys, just curious if anyone has ever made one of these and if they wouldn't mind helping me? I have looked everywhere and haven't been able to find anything on how they are made. Anyone help?

Don't know, but I would thinks it's three balloons, that the ends are behind the ribbon and they have use glue dots or rubber cement?

I think Rhian is right with three balloons, some glue dots would I think help in holding it all together as well.

It may be worth feeding a 160 uninflated inside the 260 to help hold the spiral in place. This will lessen the strain in the glue dots. When you inflate the 260 hold onto the 160 and it will spiral nicely.

Rubber cement may hold better than glue dots.

Good luck and please post a photo of your efforts.

I forgot to say, you need to tie the balloon at the end to secure the 160 balloon inside. When you then inflate the 260 and hold onto the 160 it will spiral round.

It is a great alternative to a very deep hook twist which can be a pain.
