Balloon Chat

We have a December competition to win one of Alberto Falcone's 321 DVD. I won this in the raffle at the Layla-mae balloon training day this week in Birmingham.
All you have to do is post a design with a 321, dipped or un-dipped in the sculpture to be entered into the draw at the end of the month.
Here's a bundle to start you off :D
I have just been looking through photos to advertise the fun you can have with balloons at some Christmas parties I'm doing, and so just picked out these with 321's
It always amazes me how much fun adults have with my balloons......or maybe it's because here in Weymouth we frown upon people acting like grown-ups :D
Anyway, I hope you like the pictures. I included the last one just to show that I do sometimes let kids have my balloons
Looks like Kevin is going for the world record number of entries, at the moment it's looking good for you to win the DVD but I'm sure there will be a few..........
well at least one more entry over the month to challenge you.
And another one just finished this afternoon :D
A couple from me!!
Simple one to start with

Here is a couple to start with
Just doing a few of these for an event next week as table weights...The Arms use 321's .....thanks to an old design by CJ
Not a clue what this is but I enjoyed playing
I don't tend to use 321's that often, but have found these after a quick search. On Taz and also on The Predator the 321's are used in the mouth section to give the jaw more shape. However on Fourarms everything that looks like it should be 350 is actually a 321. I found it easier to inflate to just the right amount with no twisting and just tying in.
Last one for now all the white you see are 321's and there is also s black used as the spire(though it is a little hard to see). :-)
Can't believe I forgot this one. The beak and cheeks are the 321.
Snowman based on David Brenion's Olaf design

Here are a couple of models I have made using 321's
A devil, which I got from Balloon magic mag some time back and the other is a Puffin, I believe it is a design by Twistina.
I know I didn't do it on my own and it was a team effort but I was part of the team so I humbly submit this little sculpture that had 1 or 2 or 3 or actually loads of 321's in it :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
Here is a witch I made last year for Halloween and speedy Gonzalez

Rob Driscoll's design with a few changes. 321 is muzzle.
Don't forget the competition to win the Alberto Falcone 321 GO DVD, just post a sculpture here on this thread with a 321 or 321 undipped in the model.
The winner will be pulled out of the hat on New Years day, good luck.
With a bit of time on my hands, I had a look for a few more :D
On these ones, the chicken wings, and the Teddies ice cream cone are 321 tips, and although you can't see it, the dinosaur has a tapered 321 tail.
Just one more.....
and here is Darren's review of the DVD balloon-review-027-alberto-falcone-t5056-30.html (http://balloonchat.co.uk/balloon-review-027-alberto-falcone-t5056-30.html)
I made this at Robbie Furman's visit to Glasgow. which was a great day. Robbie set a challenge to use 321's.
in this model 321's make the rim, think it was 10 used in total. I call it "ladybug on a lamp".
Graham, we all have same chance of winning but if I was luck, I have the DVD already. hope all enjoy model.
The elf and Santa hats are made with the ends of 321s

Love it Dale
Reminded me of this......I put a lot of these on headbands when I did a Mexican night a while ago.
Hardest bit was all the sidewall bubbles to hold them on the flower base. After a few I ended up using double sided tape :D
Bee and witch
This fish featured in balloon magic magazine and I turned the one I made into my logo
This is Fletch. Fletch is made entirely of Qualatex undipped 321 balloons. Even the collar, eyes, and nose are 321's.

Many thanks to all that entered the competition, Zakh was over today so he helped me write all the winners and we put them into the hat,
well a plastic bag actually and Zakh picked out one winner, so congratulations to Kevin and I will put the DVD in the post to you.
Well done Kevin. :-), But good to see some other uses for this balloon too.
Cheers Dan, and many thanks Graham and Zakh.
I do feel a bit guilty about this, as it was only because I have been unable to work over Christmas that I had time to go though my photos. As Dan said, it has been great seeing all the models though.
Looking forward to seeing the DVD, and thanks again Graham and Zakh :D
I've got my first ever bag of 321's ordered from Graham so will have a go ready for the next time!
Posted out your winning DVD this afternoon Kevin.
Many thanks Graham.....have a fab day tomorrow :D
