I am having the worst week of my life and the worst is yet to come. I think I want to make a balloon but I just cant do it. On one hand I think it will make me feel better but on the other hand it just seems wrong to do it.

Having had a tough month myself with a family bereavement then hospitalised with a serious illness myself I know where you are coming from however balloons give me the greatest stress relief and allow my brain to stop thinking about all the hard stuff for a short time. My advice is to do what feels right. I don't know what your circumstances are but if it makes you feel better then surely it can't be wrong??? Hoping things get better for you xxx

Yes ditto, keep smiling.

I agree, when I am worrying about the possible return of my cancer - I head to my balloon room and play.  Frankly, it takes me into a world of magic and dreams and all the wonderful possibilities in the world.  Hugs from me too!!!

Do it... It's like exercise, you will feel better after you have done some.

Unleash the creativity!!

Best Regards!

Thanks all

I have made a geo dinosaur in (pink and spring lilac of course) and a rather random balloon tongue by stuffing 160's inside a 350, but nothing to attach it to yet and you were right I am feeling a little better for it.

I hope many of you feel the same but I think balloons (with some unfortunate allergy's etc then do a show!!) Are an amazing meduim... Not only does it help, heal and bring happiness to the person doing balloons but to those around you!!

Ok maybe not always always (about the people around you) but you know what I am saying!! I hope haha

I am glad you made some!!! And happy your doing a bit better!! Now the best part and the best feelings.... go give it to someone !!!!

Definitely the best feeling - seeing their faces when they receive them! So rewarding

Glad you made the balloon Kim. Very wishes to you xxx

Balloons are a wonderful way to de-stress and spread some happiness... I thought I would share this reason one that someone sent me - the photo captures the moment of surprise so well.

Keep smiling...

Nippy, that pretty much says it all!  

Making balloons does always make me feel better.

I am glad to hear it makes my comrades feel better too!    

My geo dinosaur with areyouhappydad's app. I also used the app to remove her hair do which after a second look, appeared very much like a male organ!

Very cute, hope it makes you feel a lot better!!
