“The Balloon Artists Guild”
We are looking for some new members for the rest of 2022.
The plan is to run four more balloon day’s, all will be filmed in case anyone in the UK or internationally
is unable to attend and you can watch them via the Club Facebook page.
Cost to attend all four days would be only £100 or £65 if watching the workshops on line after the event.
This is the 10th year of running the club and the 18th year for myself of running the “Care & Share” balloon days in the UK.
Any questions then please ask or to book, https://balloonartwholesale.co.uk/balloons/workshops/

I was trying out the head structure for the guy from UP. I did google and I believe his name is Carl Fredricksen.
The smaller head was made Sunday night and I did not get a picture when it was first
made so does not look at its best and coming undone at some of the joints.

We have possibly made the glass's a little too big but as he is a caricature perhaps this does not matter?

The bird on the perch will be the model of the month for May.
Will see if I can sort the instructions out over the Bank Holiday weekend.

We are planning four days for the rest of this year, two 2 day events in Birmingham.
One for Sept and then one later on in Nov, we hope to have an international balloon artiste over and then two from the UK.
All the days will be filmed so if you are unable to make any you can catch up with them online.

The cost is just £100 for all four days and we do need 20 people signing up by the end of July to make this happen.
If you can spread the word it would be very much appreciated, booking details,

Any questions then please ask away, thanks xx.

I was just having a play with the balloons yesterday and tried out a Rabbit.
It did not look right with the teeth and style of head, so tried some variations.

I was making an Apple this morning and doing in Red it looked more Tomato like.
So made it in Lime Green and it does look a little more Apple like....I think?

Well after a few years we have finally started to film the tutorials for my numbers 😁😁
Now how long they take to film I'm not 100% sure but we are hoping they might be ready for the end of April.
If anyone would be interested then please get in touch and I will put you on the mailing list.
No need to commit at the moment but I will let you know first how things are progressing.
Any questions then please ask away xx
