Other than the usual bubbles, does anyone have a design or use for these?

Angel/butterfly/bumble bee/dragonfly wings, gumball tubes, Elsa cape, light sabers (w/160 inside), pregnant poodle.
Off the top of my head.

I use them as a handle on flying things, like airplanes or Superman.

Put a super ball inside a clear 260, and blow the balloon in a spiral.

Like others, I use them as wings for certain animals; as a handle for flying animals - to make a ghost into a flying ghost; and the superball thing.
I don't do the spiral like Donald. I put the ball inside, inflate the balloon, then tie it into a pretzel-knot shape. I usually connect the two ends of the pretzel. It's sort of hypnotic to play with it. That might be something I learned from a TMyers video - I'm not sure. I've made a basketball hoop hat and used a clear 260 to hold the basketball up above it. Especially if it is for an adult. Sometimes adults want a hat, but they aren't going to actually throw the ball into the hoop the way kids will. I use clear 5" rounds all the time. I put cupcake sprinkles in the round (done at home). Use a colored 260 to make a handle (three petals and a long handle part), and you have a shaker/maracas. Kids love it, and it is super easy. Also, I'll use clear 350/646s to put a rose inside glass, a goldfish in a tank, or similar situation where one design goes inside another. |

Getting kids to put their fingers over the balloon near a sprinkles cluster, makes the sprinkles behave like a plasma ball. Very popular I'll repeat this. If it loses its charge, get the kids to shake it again |

Not the best. But I use them for a dog, and tell them it is a ghost dog.

Put a bubble in two clear 260s and twist them around each other, The bubbles will race to the bottom. Kids really like it. Other times I put a bubble in one clear 260Q and then tie it in a pretzel knot and challenge them to go from one end to the other.

Wings, smoke, spider webs, I make animal designs and put balls inside. Put leds in clear balloons for wild night time effect.
