Balloon Chit Chat / quicker by tube dvd
September 23, 2014, 07:19:57 PM
Just watched the dvd and got some great ideas from it and the concept is a good one.

If anybody has it do you know what the name of the string they use to support the toys inside.

I've seen it as craft stuff before but can't remember the name of it. Or is it just clear fishing line?

Balloon Chit Chat / candy cups
September 20, 2014, 01:21:16 PM
Thinking of starting to do candy cups.

Looking for a supplier of the cups and lids and found these

Seems reasonable prices from looking at other suppliers.

Does anyone else use any certain suppliers for these.

Balloon Chit Chat / 16" rounds
August 05, 2014, 05:32:22 PM
I don't use mainly but I'm gna be needing a few shortly basically a few reds. I'm not looking to buy loads I don't mind buying a assorted bag. Don't think graham stocks them any ideas on where to get them. I've seen them on gointernational but don't really want to pay the postage on one bag as I try to only buy my balloons from graham.

Balloon Chit Chat / confetti filled balloon
July 28, 2014, 07:08:16 PM
I'm a dj by trade and also do balloons.

I do weddings also and I have seen a few times above the dancefloor a clear balloon stuffed with confetti and it pops on the first dance showering the floor with confetti.

Anybody know how these work?

Balloon Chit Chat / thelma ebook
July 24, 2014, 09:32:13 PM
Just got my copy.

Need to practice the levett link but it's already got me thinking.

Wondering if it could be utilised for say a Mickley head say 2 5" rounds out a 11" for years and using the elephant year technique to create the shape.

Anyone think it may work? Or am I just being silly

Well I attempted the ken stillman large hulk however I think I got some of the proportions wrong.

Better luck next time. It is the largest model I have made yet but I do like the larger models.

Balloon Chit Chat / age limit
June 23, 2014, 08:30:07 PM
At what age limit do you draw the line on who u give a balloon to.

Currently I say at least 3-4 with parental consent and freely to say age 5-6 +

Under 3 is a definite no chance with me

Any views on this and should I be thinking of raising the age
