As Balloon Chat, settles down to a more tranquil period (I hope) I would like to throw down a gauntlet and offer as a prize my set of three DVD's as my previous offer was refused, ( I know I know, a Scotsman giving something away free TWICE !!!! )
The challenge I would like to set is a theme of Peace.
I want this to be for everyone so please state how long you have been doing balloons for and how much experience you have, the latter can be less than the former !!!,
I will be away for a couple of days from tomorrow. I would like to close the competition next wednesday the 14th April, which I would like to name international balloon peace day.
I really do want this competition to be open to every one, so ideas will be weighted as heavily as technical expertise, and I will ask Graham if he can help find a winner

Do you mean 14th March?

Oh Gosh yes, sorry everyone, 14th march is the date

Hi Colin,

perhaps I'm being thick but what is the competition? To make a balloon sculpture on the theme of peace? Or to come up with a title for a balloon peace day?

sorry, I'm confused.

thanks
Danny

yes the competition is to make a balloon sculpture on the theme of peace. sorry it has been a long day  

I'll give it a go - can't afford to buy DVD's. I'm not a professional, just hobbyist. I've done 1 party for a friend a fundraiser for nursery and made models as gifts. Been twisting for nearly 2 years. I made this dove bracelet for my son when we went to a local peace event.  I also made an anti trident hat but didn't get a photo of that!

What a great idea Colin  

I will see what I can think up, and what a nice dove Rhian to start things off  

My head has been spinning all day thinking about this... great competition.

I have my entry planned and will be building it at the weekend!

Goodness me - if it is going to take the whole weekend I am going to go back to the drawing board...

 :lol:  :lol:  :lol: I wouldn't be too concerned, although my entry will take me a couple of hours I think.

I actually feel a bit of a fraud trying to win these as I was going to buy the set anyhow. :oops:

Competition helps improve your skills. I just need an idea!
