The absolute easiest way to make a balloon dog so you can show off to your kids.
I'll then show you another method to make a balloon dog and I'll be introducing new techniques you'll need to master to progress your balloon art.
This tutorial includes showing you step by step my tried and trusted method for creating a poodle tail. As a beginner twister, I struggled to master this technique until I realised that the how to balloon tutorials on poodle tailing were missing a key step. I share my method with you in detail.
In this series, I start with the absolute basics and it's important to watch from the beginning as I include information in each video that I don't repeat in later videos. This is a long video for such a simple one balloon animal (that's what we call this type of balloon model, whether it's an animal or an object). The reason this is a long video is because I explain one of the common reasons twisting balloons pop when you start to twist. So, if you're having this problem with twisting balloons popping, make sure you watch this tutorial in full.

I've developed some good habits by watching others, but I love hearing from you the "why" certain ways are better than others. Thank you, Melanie!

[@BalloonArtworks]

Thank you, so much, Kathy. I really appreciate the feedback. Take care ☺

[@Deena-ri8qz]

Thank youuuuuuuu

[@BalloonArtworks]

You're very welcome 🎈

[@mikeanthonyevans]

Best and easiest explanation on KZbin. Thank you

[@BalloonArtworks]

Hi Julie. Thank you very much. I'm so glad this was helpful. Take care, Melanie 🎈 🐕

[@karenbogan4216]

I love how you "soften" a balloon. When I was first learning twisting years ago, the artist that taught me always used the phrase "burp" the balloon to let the air out. It always sounded gross. Even though I understand why now, I think the term soften explains it so much better for a beginner!

[@BalloonArtworks]

Hi Karen. Thank you. Great to hear from you. I'm with you - I'm not a big fan of that term either. Take care, Melanie

[@peterjashton]

Thank you so much, I love making the first doggy but need to practice a bit more with the second technique.

[@BalloonArtworks]

Hi Pete. You're very welcome - glad the first design has worked for you. The second version is more challenging but you're well on your way! It took me ages to master the poodle tail and I only really became confident with it after I came up with the method which I demonstrate in this video. Take care, Melanie 🎈

[@gabrielav.j.]

Me gusta mucho su canal, justo mi hija quiere un perrito, gracias por compartir 👍 Saludos!! 🙋

[@BalloonArtworks]

Hola Gabriela. Muchas gracias. De nada. Espero que a tu hija le guste el perro globo. Saludos, Melanie 🐕 🎈

[@claudiameza1651]

Le quedo hermoso 👍🏼saludos

[@BalloonArtworks]

Hola Claudia. Muchas gracias 🐕 🎈

[@petakucas7389]

I never knew why you had to let a little air out. Thanks

[@BalloonArtworks]

You're very welcome. In this series, I'm trying to explain some of the things we do as twisters without always knowing the reasons why ☺

[@StreetArtistsOfTheWorld]

Damn :( I just got my first batch of baloons and it is metallic... wish I had seen this before, this is just my 5th video on the subject.

[@BalloonArtworks]

Give them a go and see how you get on. The metallic balloons are a bit firmer to work with but your balloon animals will look amazing with the metallic finish. I'd love to know how you get on. Take care, Melanie

[@StreetArtistsOfTheWorld]

@@BalloonArtworks Thanks! My little poodle came quite nice, I had ear mufflers on in case it pops 😆 and I was truly surprised how it took the turns without popping! Love your poodle bubble on the end of the tail!😘

[@BalloonArtworks]

Hi. Really pleased to hear your poodle turned out well - and no popping... yay! You're well on your way now! Merry Christmas

[@sashaenterpriseskk]

I am all new to balloon twisting and I bought a Qualatex balloon pump like the one you are using but looking at you doing your pumps you get air every time you go in and out but i only get air when i pump out if you know what i mean, I am not getting air on every stroke. Could my pump be defective, should it be pumping like yours on every stroke. Love your videos..

[@BalloonArtworks]

Hi Breda. You're right, the Qualatex hand pump is a dual intake pump so it should inflate with each stroke no matter whether the stroke is in or out.

[@sashaenterpriseskk]

@Balloon Artworks thank you. I will get back to where I purchased it and get a replacement as its only working one way.

[@BalloonArtworks]

@@sashaenterpriseskk it might be worth checking the Qualatex name is on the pump as there are some very similar lime and pink handpumps that aren't Qualatex but the look very similar until you see them side by side. Best wishes, Melanie

[@petakucas7389]

Including chrome ?

[@BalloonArtworks]

For beginner twisters, I recommend sticking to the basic fashion colours whilst getting to grips with the techniques. Pearl finishes feel thicker and are stiffer to twist. Chromes 260s are longer than fashion colours. Also beginners need to practice, so why spend the extra on Chromes for practice balloons. That's why I recommend sticking with fashion colours for practice.
