Title: Happy Birthday Newbie Competition.
Post by: Graham Lee on March 14, 2009, 08:42:51 PM
Just to encourage those that are still to post for the first time, you can either post the sculpture/model that got you interested/hooked on twisting or something to wear, hat, wings, jewellery, wristable, costume, shoe etc etc. it's just a fun competition to encourage everyone to join in and participate with the form, as they say the more the merrier.
Everyone that enters will go into the hat and the winner drawn out on the 1st April.
The prize is any stocked DVD/CD from the website http://www.sempertexballoons.co.uk (http://www.sempertexballoons.co.uk) and 3 bags 260's and 2 bags 160's.
Looking forward to seeing a few new fresh faces on the forum :D

Greetings everyone!  

I am a misplaced Canadian presently living in the U.K.  

I dug out my balloons and pumps for the Comic Relief Day last Friday and spend a couple of hours in our School entertaining students in the hallway and making a few pounds for the cause.  

That got me here, since I had to buy more balloons!...  

I got into balloons by attending a session last spring at our Teachers' Convention in Calgary, Canada.  The first self taught item was the Guitar on the left from an internet video... and it has been a great hit with kids... even can sort of make a tune on it!

Any suggestions of single balloon items to twist that work will be appreciated.

Hope this Newbie Posting wins!
