I just did DD's School Fair yesterday and not having done many balloon jobs yet I kept forgetting what I could make each time I was asked  :roll:  Does this happen to any of you and if so what do you do to get round it?  I ended up making about 5 different things because I just could not remember what else I could!!!  :oops:

I know what you mean Yvonne. I have a small card in my bag, on both sides I've written loads of things I make for walkabout type events. If I ever get a 'blank' moment I just take it out, have a quick look and thats enough to give me some more ideas of what I make.

Hope that helps :)

I can have the same problem and I also can have a problem remembering were to start a model so I will carry a little flip book I made with pictures of some of the things I can make. I also have 2 small photo albums I carry that have a larger selection should I need a reminder of a particular sculpture. I will take pictures of every model I make when I am trying it out and print it out, and then add it to the album. Another thing I have seen done is a menu card, you can have several of these that you can swap dependent on the event you are working with different degrees of difficulty. (If you have one with all the sculptures you do on you will always end up making loads of the hardest one).
When it comes to the day I arive at the pearly gates I hope to slide in sideways saying to st Peter WOW!!! what a ride.

I would imagine that this is a common problem. I know I've been asked and I can never remember. Than someone will say, 'can you make...' and I'm like, 'Duh, that would have been a good suggestion."

I have a bunch of photos copy and pasted into a document that I have printed out and I keep in my car in a folder. When I get somewhere with a few minutes to spare, I'll pull it out and try to pick out a few models that I've never made or haven't made in a while and try to keep them in my head for when someone asks that question.
