Does anyone have any ideas of quick  linework style circus-themed balloons that would entertain adults?

I have thought of clown head bracelets and that's about as far as I've got :D. I've only just had confirmation of the gig though and it is late so I'll get my thinking cap on tomorrow.

They need to be quick designs though . . .

Thanks, Lisa

The gig was on Saturday night and it went brilliantly. I did a few jester hats ;) and also cobbled together a quick and easy clown bracelet from a 5" round and a 260, which worked well. I'll post a pic later, it was really easy.

It was actually in a bar in the gay village in Manchester, so a lot of the balloons were not circus themed at all, and very much not for display on a public forum  ;)  :lol:  :lol:  

Great fun though! One of those gigs where whatever you were asked for you could do it and (on the whole) a really great atmosphere with time to show off some good skills.

I got loads of applause which was quite funny and plenty of tips (despite getting a very nice fee for being there!). Well worth getting home at 1am for - and not a snotty kid in sight  :twisted:

So glad it went well for you.

I think I know where you were, by the canal....Canal St in Manchester.....a friend of mine is a Drag act and plays round there a lot, so I can imagine what a fun night it must have been  :D  :D  :D

Balloons create so much fun wherever you go, with an open mind you can take balloons anywhere !!!!!!!
