Do-It-Yourself Hot Air Baloon


I’m not just going to show you how to make one hot air balloon, i’m going to show you how to make 17 different balloons!


3 or 4 times a year, i create a new “installation” for our school‘s main office. a couple years ago, my parents and i hung tension wires across the ceiling to be able to do these installations, so everything i do hangs from them. when i’m ready to switch these out, they’ll move over to fred & betty’s, our school’s thrift store, where i do the window displays. fun jobs, huh?

Supplies: paper lanterns (i used ones i had on hand, but the type with tighter, even boning worked much better than the wider criss-cross boning), scissors, hot glue, glue gun, mod podge, 1″ wide paint brush, tray for mod podge, fabric (i used almost all scraps), yarn, berry baskets, and styrofoam or plastic cups.
