This is as far as I got - the head! But then I got very confused!

In that case I don't know it i've never been. The balloons are great though!

Thats great Mandy - I really love the definition using the 2 colours.

I did this event yesterday - only my 4th ever gig and it was quite nerve wracking! I decided to make it easier for myself and made a menu of all the things I was prepared to make for the event - at least that way I was able to ensure I would be able to make all the models I was asked for.

I ended up making lots of monkeys on trees - they were the biggest hit. I also made lots of Thelmas dolphins which were a big hit - thanks so much Thelma. Other models I made were parrot on a perch, pigs, snakes and a couple of ducks. I was only needed for an hour and I had to work fast and furiously in that time but it was really enjoyable and the people were really happy.

Its got me all excited about balloons again and i've set about practising a bit more again. One thing I was asked for though that I couldn't even attempt was a hedgehog! Has anyone ever made one of them?

I'm afraid this one has me beat! I've gone through sooooo many balloons just trying to perfect the head and then just when I thought I had it I realised I had nothing to attach the body too... I think i'll wait for the instructions for this one....  Still you've got yourself a sale Thelma - let me know when I can buy one.

That's great - where is the shop I feel like I recognise it.

Welcome Dee - great to have you here!

Here is my Rudolph - I think I invented it - but I can't be sure!

Welcome Kathy - enjoy the site - I am sure you will learn lots!

Fantastic - that looks really brilliant!

Welcome Emazdad and enjoy the forum!

Hi Jordan and welcome - enjoy the forum!

Some great pics - looks like there were some fantastic models made - gutted I couldn't make this one!

Hope you all had a great day!

Thanks Prof!

I could do with learning a dolphin and a bull for this event - a dolphin is fine c/o Thelmas CD but I don't know a good bull can anyone point me in the direction of some pics?

Thanks!

Graham our great leader on this site organises "care and share" which are just what he is looking for and great value for money!

I'm not sure when the next midlands one will be but there's sure to be one in the next few months.

Hope this helps.
