Valentine's Day

I love Valentine's Day! There is so much love and good feelings all around. It's also a day that I am extremely busy delivering some of the love and good feelings for my customers to give to their loved ones. This is a picture of my morning delivery to one of my favorite teacher's at my kids school. She requested for something fun to give to her husband. She was extremely happy with it.

Why I love what I do

This was a balloon piece that I made for a customer who asked for something to give to her client to signify his 85th birthday and his passion for motorcycles and past life in the military. So I made an army-colored birthday cake with a motorcycle sitting on top. The balloon motorcycle was taught by Mr. Boma of Mr. Boma's balloons on YouTube. My customer said he loved it. That's what makes what I do worth it!

 

 

My Regulars

One thing I love about having my own balloon business is having "regulars." These are the people I always look forward to making balloons for. They trust my "artistic design" in making their balloon creations...whatever it may be. They give me a general idea of what they want and let me run with it.

Today I made and delivered 14 simple Valentine balloon flower arrangements for a hospice company "regular'. They are such awesome people and am happy that they come to me when they want balloons to give throughout the community.

Baby Shower Balloon Decoration

I love doing balloon décor...centerpieces, arches, columns....all of it! It's as much fun as twisting for kids.
These are a couple of arrangements I did this morning for a baby boy shower. The "Special Delivery" Stork and a sweet "Its a Boy" centerpiece with a balloon pacifier.

Valentine's Day is Coming up!!

I have been so super busy with birthday parties and events these last couple of months that I haven't been able to post very much on my blog/diary or post any pictures. 

It can be a difficult task to juggle so many hats at the same time. In my previous life/career (before balloon twisting), I was a Registered Nurse working 12 hour shifts at a community hospital. People constantly ask me why I chose to twist balloons rather than treat patients. My answer is simple...because there is nothing like seeing the face of a child who receives one of my balloon creations and the thankful and appreciative hugs and affection I get from them. It's that simple.

 This little Valentine penguin was inspired by an awesome balloon artist named Dale the Magical Balloon-Dude. He used smaller 160 balloons for his creation..I used 260's.
