Fairy wings are very popular with the girls at a party. The adults like them and some of the boys as well. Here's how to make them from balloons.

edit Steps1Using a balloon pump, inflate a balloon. Leave about 4 inches (10cm) un-inflated at the end. Remove the balloon from the pump carefully while pinching the end so no air escapes.2Tie off the balloon. Use your other hand to pinch and then pull on the end to stretch it. Release the first hand and re-pinch the balloon a short distance away from the end. This action will give you enough room to tie off the balloon by making a loop and pushing the end through the loop and pulling it tight.3Put this balloon around the waist of the child and twist the ends together to hold it in place. Make sure the twisted ends are at the back of the child.4Inflate two balloons of the same color and tie off the ends. Tie the ends of each balloon together to form a rough circle. You now have two balloon circles of the same color.5Tie them together tightly to form a figure eight.6Form each balloon into a heart shape. To do this, take the middle of the side opposite the tie and form a fold that just fits into your hand. Squeeze your hand into a fist and hold it briefly. When you release your hand, the circle will now be heart shaped. Do the same to the other balloon.7Take the completed wings and attach them to the balloon that is already tied around the waist of the child. Do this by twisting the free ends of the waist balloon around the center of the wings.Now that you're done, tell them to fly away!
