Quote from: "Modine"There are a couple of DVDs using Geos. Sur Five Them All vol. 1 Blossoms and "GEO"metry with James Vigeant. I got them from TMyers and both have some good ideas. They're easy, but not. Use fresh stock. Sorry, I haven't worked much with them and don't have any photos for you.

It's been almost two years since I saw just the pictures on the case of Guido's Sur Five DVDs with the Geos, so, please don't quote me, but I believe there are more sculptures in the more complicated range on James's GEOmetry DVD, or as Modine calls them "but not".  

Modine, would you agree, or am I off base here?  As Modine suggested using fresh stock, also choose colors that are NOT jewel tones until you get a feel for TORTURING GEOS.  That's the best way I (a pitifully inadequate twister) describe what James does to a GEO.

Anyway, for your enjoyment, here is the BalloonHQ number to a freebie.  James came up with this wonderfully useful balloon just AFTER he'd finished filming his GEOmetry DVD, so here it is for free.  

Perhaps the most universally useful of James's GEO balloon creations. For more Geo ideas, please check out JAMES's DVD "GEOmetry", being sold by Aeration Decorations (http://www.aeradeco.com and http://www.Qwinkly.BalloonHQ.com


By the way, I'm the MOM.  In case you hadn't guessed by now.

Glynis (JAMES's Mom)   :D

That's IT !  I QUIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I was hoping, just hoping that with lots of practice and a few years of trying, I might just reach mediocre, but if you're gonna set the bar THAT high.... forget it ! :(

You know you should have stayed home when you are barely adequate as a twister and your first request is for a hyena and the next table asks for a platypus !  My first thought was to phone call to Bonnie !
