Pre-Stuff to Improve Your Line Work

Be My Valentine Scepter – 2 Minutes!

by Ken Shute

I am always asked for a faster way to get through my lines at events. Pre-stuffing increases my speed on line, and allows me to finally break out of the stereotypical “line” twisting items. Pre-stuffing my specialty balloons helps me become the twister I want to be rather than just the guy that does dogs, swords and flowers. I carry a number of pre-stuffed balloons for my Aliens, Jedi Light Sabers, Princess Wands and Tiaras.

I am asked for this around Valentines Day and throught the year with the I Love You Print for sweetheart birthdays and anniversaries and I think that this can be very dramatic when presented with a bit of flair.This design lends itself for more panash like adding a white 160 to spiral between the Rose and Pink when you are twisting at Restaurants and Parties!

Start with a 5″ heart, 9″ Clear and 2 complimentary 260’s	Stuff the 5″ Heart into the Clear 9″	Inflate the inside Heart

Then the Clear Outer Balloon	Inflate the two 260’s. Leave about a 1 1/2″ end
Make three large pinch twists or small loops	Combine and arrange alternating colors
Spiral twist the remaining tails. Adjust as needed	Attach the globe/heart to the scepter and you’re done!
Use Snowflakes Around for a snow globe effect!
