Hiya

I am new to the site and am after a little bit of advise regarding balloon modelling etc. I currently do helium balloon decor but wanted to maybe begin to get into the other side of balloons fancy columns, bouquet flowers etc.

I just wondered if anybody could give me some advise regarding where to start asi have no idea lol.

Any help would be much appreciated :-)

Great to hear you want to learn how to twist. First up, buy a bag or two of the assortment bags of Qualatex or Sempertex. Then perhaps start by checking out the tutorial and help section of this forum. Posting what you make here and asking for advice is always a good idea as there are so many people willing to help here. Also, the review section of the forum points you in the direction of some very good tutorials that can be bought and downloaded for ease of use. Enjoy and don't be afraid to post your work and ask for hints and tips.  :D
Kindest Regards

We all have our cross to bear, but some of us need more wood than others!

Dont know where you are based...

We have a twisting course running tomorrow in tamworth for novice twisting... but as an entertainer in making animals etc

We also do a twisting for decorators and characters class see the balloon school website

I find there is a difference, its all about where you want to take it and what you wan to do with the balloons

Both courses can be OCN level 2 accredited if you want them to be
