Step 1Place balloon in bowl for stability. Drag a strip of newspaper through paste & wipe off excess. Cover balloon
(leave a sm opening on top for pinata)
LET DRY 24 HOURS.
(COVER the paste so it doesn't dry out). -

FOR THE HOT AIR BALLOON NECK-
I hot glued a cut sour cream container. You can glue or tape instead & use whatever size container that works for you. -
Step 3
Cut out a basket from another plastic container. Or if you can make the neck & basket from one go for it.
Cover the balloon & sour cream containers w newspaper & (pm)paste.Allow to dry.

Step 4
Paint or add crepe paper or tissue paper to decorate.
WHEN DRY-
Punch holes into the "neck" & "basket".
Attach basket to neck with string (or yarn, ribbon).NOTE-
IF YOU ARE MAKING THIS INTO A PINATA MAKE SURE THE INSIDE IS DRY BEFORE ADDING CANDY.
