Steps to follow:

1

There are a couple of methods you can follow in order to tie a balloon knot easily and properly. Follow us!

The first step works for both methods. Blow up your balloon by leaving a space without air just near the tip. If you have inflated it too much, release some excess air and pinch the tip between of the balloon your fingers. This will make tying a knot way easier.

Keep your thumb holding the tip to prevent more air from coming out. With your other fingers, stretch the neck of the balloon repeatedly. This way, you will ensure that it is long enough to make a knot. If you see it isn't long enough, release a little more air and repeat the operation.

Then, stretch the tip again and roll it between your index and middle fingers. Do it with the hand you feel most comfortable using. Pass the tip of the balloon between the space left by the neck rolled between your fingers as you can see in the pictures.
