I'm off to the face painting convention this week. I think the master classes start tomorrow and the main event runs Fri/Sat/Sun.
I will be having a stand and running some workshops, it's been a while since we have been able to see everyone
so will be nice to catch up and see people again. I will post a few pictures from the event when I get back.

I expect I will make a few designs from these and add a couple of newer ones in as well, possibly the Helicopter and Bride.

I got back late last night from the convention, it was nice catching up with everyone and meeting a few new people as well.
I will start to post the pictures a little later once I have caught up with a few things.

The start of the pictures, Pam, Amanda, Catherine, Heydi, Gemma and a few others all did all the balloon decor.
I just took the pictures.

More decor from around the hotel.

More of the reception decor.

Registration desk.

Julie in disguise, he he. Registration desk number two?

Around the dealer room.

This was our little room for the three days.

There were a few dealers in the room.

More decor from Pam and her team.

Things coming together.

The dealer stand all ready and the room for the balloon workshop.

We only had 4 to the workshop as they did have I think five other face painting workshops all with international instructors.
But we did have a bit of a giggle and I think people went away with some ideas.

Then I decided to have a go at building a film camera that might have been used when making the Wizard of Oz back in 1939.
The weight of the camera on the tripod made it buckle so I had to add strength to the base later on.

The theme for the convention was Yellow Brick road.

And a random cup cake.

The entrance way to the hotel, Amanda's entry into the best hat competition.
