Balloon Sword

Making a Sword:

Step 1: Inflate the balloon leaving a one-inch tip.

Step 2: Make a basic twist about five-inches from the beginning of the balloon. You will be bending the second segment of the balloon at about the three-inch mark to make a fold twist.

Step 3: Create a fold twist

Step 4: You have just twisted one of the two "hand guards" for the sword.

Step 5: Twist a second fold twist the same size as the first one.

Step 6: Straighten out the hand guards so they appear as those in the picture. You've twisted a balloon sword.
