Many thanks to all those who attended the balloon day yesterday, I was a little apprehensive as we were
going back to the day being a little more casual and laid back, as they were when we ran them as the
"Care & Share" days in the beginning. In case anyone was interested this is the start of the 18th year
of myself running the balloon days in the UK, A little nod here to David Grist 💞 Happy memories xx.

The day seemed to go down well and we had people looking at the designs and trying to reverse engineer
them before I explained how I put them together. We then had little groups formed making separate
deigns during the day as well. So once again many thanks to all those who attended.

A special thanks to Liela, Lord G and Caroline for running mini sessions during the day
on weaving a champagne glass, the mermaid/hair idea and the weaved flower.

I will be posting the pictures up over the next few days.

Caroline was showing the Flower weave, Simon reverse engineered the Motor Bike I took along.

This was the explanation of Dory after everyone had 20 minutes or so to see if they could put it together.
I thought it was an interesting exercise and we did get some positive feedback... which is always good   

Everyone I think enjoying the day.

Lord G did also go through some weaving which I forgot to mention while making his top hat.
Kelly trying to work the weave out and then Kelly after she had worked the weave out.

Clare so happy, she was working on how the Penguin went together.
Lord G taking his new arrival home, and the Heart that I explained.

We were asked about weaving so I made a quick wine glass and coming up Leila made a Champagne glass.
Leila with her Heart.

The Princess design that I think Caroline showed. Caroline also brought Ayse along to her
first balloon get together and it seems she is taking to it like a duck to water.
You have to encourage the younger generation.
So wishing her well with her new adventure xx

Danielle with her Nemo design and then the Champagne flute that Leila made.

Some balloons from around the room.

The last ones from the day.

I did come home and re made the Penguin and Tweety again.
I have also changed Tweety a lot since this design, they are all here on a different thread,
