Hi Malik the magic guy with expertvillage.com. So now we are going to talk about adding on to the basic helmet or the classic base using 260s - the balloons like this. Now most of these we are going to add on with the balloons full length and we are going to make pieces. So we can make a bow like we did before, we can make bow hat. Now just with a bow and a classic base there is a bunch of different things you can do to added on. So we well make our bow. You can add on here on this end, you can add on here on this end, or you can add on here in the middle. So lets say you wanted to add on to the middle you can just twist this on like this and that would make like a bunny ears hat or propeller hat. If we wanted to add on to the end that would gives us another way to make something funny looking you can put that in the front or back. This could be a pair of wings so there are a lot of place to add on. You can also add on here. The trick to this you want to make your helmet a little bit soft. Just by blowing up the balloon with about a inch left in them, squeezing the air to the end and that would give you the ability to add on without worrying about the balloon breaking. So we will do more of that in just a bit.
