  • Balloons
  • 8 oz school glue
  • 1 cup water

Step 2:  Tie Bakers twine to top of the balloon. Wrap balloon in Bakers twine. There’s no rhyme or reason for how to do this. Just wrap all around, up and down in all directions. Use as much twine to achieve the desired look and coverage. After wrapping, tie end of twine to top of the balloon.
