I had a few choices for model of the month for June, the one I wanted to use I did not have any 350 Grey
so we have gone for plan B and hopefully plan A will be next month, fingers crossed.

So the model of the month for June will be the Handbag, although I have been informed this is actually a clutch bag.
I'm still deciding if we will send out the 350 handle or go with the chrome 260 handle style as this
is so much longer and I think I prefer the look of the design this way.
The bag came about as its from a Crown design I made a few weeks back and just turned upside down.

Inflate the first 260 leaving approx 6/7 fingers un-inflated.

Make a 4 finger bubble and then two 1.5 finger pinch twists followed by another
4 finger bubble and a 1 finger pinch twist.

You then need a 4 finger bubble back to the two central pinch twists. Then another 4 finger bubble and a 1 finger pinch twist.
Tie the end of the balloon to this pinch twist to complete the top section of the handbag

You now need four 3 finger bubbles and twist the balloon around the other 1 finger pinch twist on the other side of the handbag.
Discard the rest of this balloon.

Inflate the second 260 balloon leaving 6/7 fingers un-inflated, attach this to the two central pinch twists.
Make a 3 finger bubble and take this over the first bubble coming down from the top of the handbag.

Use the end of this balloon to make a 1 finger bubble for the clasp of the handbag.

Attach the 1 finger bubble to the two central pinch twists.
I then puff inflate the 350 handle and pull the air about half way down the 350 so we can add another
small puff of air to make the 350 a little fuller. Attach the 350 to either 1 finger pinch twist.

As usual, well I say as usual but we have only been doing this a few months,
if anyone would like to help keep the forum up and running then I do have a "Buy Me A Coffee" page
set up where you can.....yes you've guessed it buy me a coffee or two  ;)

Although they do take 10% fee for this so to get in touch directly would get us an extra 10%

All monies help to keep the Balloon Chat and BalloonTube, my YouTube channel up and running and online.

Thanks for reading, it is appreciated XXxx
