I'm going to a party where they are going to have a crazy glasses contest. Anyone have any ideas on balloon glasses I can make.
Thanks in advance Shawn |

Ya mean functional ones? interesting idea ... I can make cup holders and balloons that look like glasses. nothing I can think of to create a functional glass from balloons. Oh wait .. are you talking about eyeglasses? Several way to make those. One way is to stuff'em with pipe cleaners and just bend them into shape.

Yea eye glasses.I had an idea of maybe making some then glueing the balloon shaped glasses to those jumbo comedy glasses so they would stay on.
Not sure what you mean or how to stuff pipe cleaners into them while it is blown up? Anyone have any pics of eyeglass balloon they made? |

Hello,
I would not make anything that goes over the eyes. Think about popping and liability. Regards, R |

This is an un-inflated type. insert the pipe cleaner into a 260 (or 160) & tie it off. Do that to 4 or 5 balloons then simply twist them into the shape you want. 2 of them will be the earpieces and the rest will form the glasses part.
an inflated version could be done by twisting a letter "B" for the front part and then using un-inflated balloons to create a strap to hold it in place. |

Thanks Wes ill give that a try an see what happens. Now I heard its s crazy hat an glasses so if that don't work then I can do a hat an attach it to the hat.
R . The glasses are for me so I won't worry about sueing myself but good point. If I attach those big comedy glasses on the they should act like safety glasses if the balloon pops Thanks Shawn |

Shawn,
Sorry, I miss-understood that it was for you. I have made alien eyes by putting some blinking lights inside of a colored balloon. They are usually round and are motion sensitive or just stay on. Place these inside of a clear and make eyeballs of these two balloons. When you get there turn on the blinking lights. I wear them above my eyes. Regards, R |
