Start of something bigger

I ordered these balloons quite cheaply from eBay and thought I would try making larger string balls. Not as easy as I thought. My arms couldn't wrap the string around the balloon in one go not enough tension. So after a lot of struggling found the easier method, but not the cleanest was to glue the string first and then wrap half way, then turn the ballon and continue.

This final result here took 2 hours to do...and I was covered in glue!!

Also I had to use a chair to suspend it off of to dry. 

I also fear that there may not be enough support to keep its shape being so large! Just have to wait and see...
