Here is a fishy on a hairband blowing bubbles (the fish is blowing bubbles, not the hairband), He is made from 5 balloons, I wanted the base to be 2 colours but I could have made that out of just 1 balloon if need.

This hat (or is it a fascinator?) is the type of thing you would see at Ascot on Ladies day (I imagine, I have never really taken much notice). It is made from 4 balloons, an 11" for the main part, a 260 for the white bit and then 2 x 160s for the feathery bits.

I made bunny ears the other day which inspired me to have a go at making mouse ears, I ended up making a few of these at a party recently and they are really popular. These ears are made from 4 balloons, they are 2 round 5" balloons and 2 x 260 balloons, they are then attached to a hairband.

Here are some bunny ears on a hairband, easy to make and it only uses 2 balloons, they are a grey 260 and a white 160, it is simple to make and looks really cute. This is the first photo with my new camera as well, I was having so many problems with my last one so decided to take the plunge and get a new one.

I am into the idea of hairbands at the moment and have been playing around with them a lot, here is a bird hairband made almost entirely from 160s except for his beak which was a bit of left over scrap balloon from a 260.

I made this the other day at a party after someone asked me to make a sculpture, they wanted anything that I had never attempted to make before, I was standing thinking about what I could make and I initially thought about a light bulb on a hair band but then the lightning bolt idea hit me and that is what I made, its made from 2 balloons, both 260s.

Here is another Monster eyes hairband, I originally just had the purple balloon on there and imagined they were ears but now I have added the eyes I think they have become wings, in fact I think it looks like a stingray or something, the thing with ballooning is that sometimes you start out making 1 thing and by the end it comes out as something totally different.

While at a recent balloon event I purchased some hair bands, I have never made a balloon hair band before and wanted to give it a go, I saw a few hair band designs made at the balloon event including one made by the multi award winning balloon modeller Colin which was similar to this head band design.
My Loch Ness hairband is made from 3 balloons, I started by creating the blue water from a 260 using a similar technique to the pinch line technique except I only used 1 balloon rather than 2. The monster is made from a 160 and his little Scottish hat is a scrap of a 260.
