Sharing some of our recent work

 (not posted for a while so I hope the pictures come through the right size - apologies if not Graham but as you know I have always struggled with this bit lol)

Alice in wonderland decor for a party last weekend :)

(the rabbit was inspired by one made by That balloons in Singapore. The caterpillar was also inspired by an image in Pinterest  so please take credit for the original design if it is yours :) )










Thanks for looking :) xx

Thanks Kenny :)

all designs had some element of twisting although the tweedles were only heads and the base of the toadstool was rounds on a column. It's hard to answer the time limit bit because last weekend we did also did a huge casino themed school prom,  this party,  another simpler Spider-Man party as well as smaller order customer collections so we start prepping various parts of each order starting on the Tuesday/Wednesday depending on what will last the longest. We tend to use larger balloons where possible as we can prep them earlier in the week bag them and they will still be good for the weekend. I would say if I was to add it all up probably 1.5-2 full days to prep this lot and then the arch was prepped on site with pre twisted characters and flowers added  :) x

Sounds like your getting a fair bit of decor work. I am currently looking for team members for a few jobs in the future, but it's quite difficult to fine experienced twisters over here in Ireland!! We are quite spread out from each other.!!

I only do decor work Kenny :) Unfortunately I was blessed with the charisma and entertaining abilities of a limp cabbage lol so when I discovered balloons 4 years ago I started making balloon gifts which then just sorta somehow turned into a full time deco twisting business :) I do all the twisting for all the jobs myself :) I bought an air conditioning unit so as long as I bag them I can start prepping 3-4 days a head. I probably could prep them earlier but I tend to stick to that so I know they will be fine for the event and for the customer to enjoy for a good while after :) x
