Highlights

Creating the Lips
00:00:00

Start with a 260 balloon, leaving a 5 to 5.5 inch tail. Make a soft, half-inch bubble and bring the knot to the base to create a pinch twist. Repeat for a second pinch twist, forming the horse's lips.

Forming the Head and Ears
00:00:40

Next, make an inch and a half bubble for the muzzle. Then, create two small three-quarter inch bubbles for the ears and twist them together with a lock twist to complete the horse's head.

Making the Neck and Front Legs
00:00:59

Form a two-inch long bubble for the neck. Then, create two inch and a half to two-inch bubbles for the front legs and lock them together with a twist.

Adding the Mane
00:01:11

For the mane, make six small bubbles in a 'string of pearls' style. Twist the third bubble around the horse's ears to secure it, then continue with the remaining three bubbles, wrapping the end around the front legs to lock the mane in place.

Finishing with the Body and Back Legs
00:01:59

Create an inch and a half bubble for the body. Make two more inch and a half bubbles for the back legs, similar to the front legs. Lock these together with a twist, and the remaining balloon forms the tail, completing your balloon horse.
