Thank you for the feedback, yes my tails I knew as soon as I had done it, it was to tight lol  

If I had more time I would have re done it I think but, as we were invited to the christening and when the venue opened I had 1 hour to get it all set up, it was really tight for time  

Hi All,

So yesterday I did my first bigger event, it was for a friends christening so there was some pressure but not as much as doing an event for someone you don't know. Anyway here are some pictures of it, please let me know what you think worked and what you think could be tweeked for next time :-)

Thats great thank you Pam, I don't suppose you guys are doing any air filled classes in the near future?

Hi All,

I have yet another question  :roll:
I am doing an arch with the 36" letter you can get, I have spoke to my wholesaler this morning who cant let me have a bigger bottle of helium due to shortage, and I only have half of a small bottle left. So is there anyway of air fillinf the letter and then getting them into an arch? I was thinking of maybe trying to use a frame work and then attaching the balloons to that?

Thanks for all of your help

Thats lovely  

So the air filled worked well, but the only downside was he didn't hold his air, but I am not to sure if thats because I made a hole in him by mistake, or if because he already had a hole in him. Any here is a picture of him (not a great picture though)

Hi All,

Can you get letters to stick on Balloons? I have got a christening coming up and the parents would like a arch and the baloons in the arch to have some letters on the spell out the little boys name, is this possible?

Thanks
Michelle

Just thinking some more, I still think if I air fill him and tie him in tight he should stand up right, am I right?

Hi All,

Just another simple question (sorry bear with me I am still new to all of this ) I have got a joke decoration to do next week for a wedding, where they want a 36" Leprechaun on a colum. I have got the leprechaun, and then I am going to do a four cluster green and white colum.

Now my inital thought would be that I would air fill the leprechuan, but something is telling me at the back of my mind that he won't stand up if he is air filled. Has anyone ever used this balloon or do you have any thoughts on if air or helium would work better?

Thats great thank you, I am having a look at this now  

I am not to sure if I have put this in the right section, but I am thinking of going to a couple of local wedding fairs to try and drum up some business. Has anyone ever done wedding fairs? Have they been any use? What sort of things did you take with you to show on your stall?

Thanks
Michelle

Yes when I saw the replies pam I them remebered about the dashboard stuff as I thought at the time, when I go I need to go and raid my husbands garage for that  :lol:

Thanks for the nice replys  

Thanks for the info guys, see Neil the air inflator came in handy on this occasion  :lol:

The arch I just air inflated balloons, and plumbers pipe from B&Q, the rings I brought 5 hoola hoops from the pound shop, then my husband just screwed them together for me in the sequence of the rings.

Hi All,

Just a quick question, I did an olympic themed arch a couple of weeks ago which was outside, and very quickly the balloons went dull. I assuming it was the heat and sun light that affected them, am I right? If so is there anything you can do to stop this from happening?



(I know on this one you can see a little of the hoop I used because as the balloons were put a couple burst :-/)

That looks lovely
