Just a quick post to say hi to all! How has your week been? Mine...? Pretty reasonable! Too procrastinat-y for my liking though.
Maybe some of you know I'm a balloon twister, I post about it every now and then. I do have a whole another blog about that too, A Rainbow of Balloons (and I'm on Facebook too - Facebook.com/aballoonrainbow). I actually did a birthday party on Saturday for the cutest little girl, Toula.

| I love getting to dress up as my alter-ego Rainbow! |
Her awesome Aunt who asked me to come along also had a special request for a balloon Sophia the First... Here was my attempt! I've never made her before, but the hardest part was trying to make her crown! :((
It was absolutely adorable how Toula hugged her balloon! Melt my heart why don't ya kid?! The balloon was almost as big as she was! (I think she'd just turned 2.) I also made her a Minnie Mouse balloon at her party (no photos).
Because I really love my girly balloons so much, I thought I would share with you some of my recent favourite balloons I have created!
Are any of my readers balloon twisters? If you are, I'd love to know! There is so much joy to be had in bring a smile about from balloons!
I'm going to try for my 3rd year of auditioning for Australia's Got Talent. It's coming up soon, so I'm trying to think what I should do this time for my audition piece... :/
Until next time ;)
I love Rainbow! tee hee. You are very talented!!

Hi Sonia,
ReplyDeleteWow, great job on the Sofia Ballon. I love it and I want to do the same for my 2nd daugther's birthday. Can you give me some tips on how to do this?
Hi Sonia,
ReplyDeleteWow, the Sofia is beautiful! I love and I want to create it for my daughters bday. Can you give me some tips on how to do it? Maybe you have a tutorial. Thanks!
Hi Mireilli, thanks for your lovely comment <3 I don't have a tutorial at all unfortunately, but it is something I have considered putting together! Maybe 2014 will be my year...
DeleteIf it helps, her hair is attached with an off-centred Raisin Twist (if you are not familiar with the technique, a Google search will be very helpful) :)
If there are any specifics that you want to ask about, please let me know!
Hi, can I ask where I can buy the face balloons?
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
I wish I could tell you where to buy them from... Except I don't buy them, I draw them myself :)
DeleteIt can be one of the most nerve-wracking parts of making the balloon in my mind, but luckily I usually am satisfied with the end result :)
Wow, simply amazing! Love all the balloon stuff you do :)
DeleteHow much would you sell a princess sofia balloon for? And where are you located?
