Making a Balloon Teddy Bear

Video Transcript

"I'm going to make my very personal favorite animal now. A little teddy bear. So we start by making the teddy bear's nose. It's a little bit bigger than a dog's nose, but not by much. Then pinch twist the cheek. Pinch twist his ear while holding and controlling the bubbles like we did with the cat. The top of the head, then the other ear. Pinch and twist his other ear. Coming down the other side, pinch and twist and we've got the shape of his face. His nose goes through the middle. Now we're going to add that ear twist we taught you earlier with the cat. I'm going to hold the bubbles in my left hand and twist the ear bubble several times to make the teddy bear's ear shape. Same with the other side. I'm going to pull it slightly away to twist it. Pull it and twist it. Pull it and twist it. Now turn it around and you'll see a cute little face there. Pinch twist his neck, and add his paws and his hands. Here's one. It's a fold twist like we did with the elephant's ears. Fold it, pinch it at the bottom, and twist them together - bop twist. And the same on the other side. Just like the elephant ear. Fold it, pinch it, and twist it. Now you'll see there's a little bit of balloon stingy part showing here. We don't want that, so we'll just fold the balloon hand over each other a couple of times. Fold it over, and that gets rid of an unsightly parts of the balloon. Now I'm just going to stretch the balloon a little bit. We're going to do his body, and then pinch twist the leg, leaving a little big extra for his tail. Left twist his legs together, straighten them up and you've got your little cute teddy bear."
