Here we are with another blog after missing last week as we were away in Paris helping with a few shows for the ESM, English Speaking Mum’s. Luckily everyone speaks English as my French is non-existent… he he. Was a fabulous few days and thanks to Sarah and family for putting up with me and showing us the sights. All three shows were sold out and monies raised goes to a couple of charities the ESM support. I will find out how much was raised and donated. As usual we did take a few pictures along the way, still adding them so it will be a few days till they are all up and on Balloon Chat. Paris Shows.
Now a funny thing happened while we were in Paris, well not funny really but you do wonder how these things come about. The Louvre was robbed on the Sunday morning we were doing our shows, so Monday afternoon we decided to make some jewellery and Sarah had an appropriate dress to fit the age of the stolen gems. We did post this on Facebook and it got loads of likes, loves and comments and was a fun thread. We also posted pictures of myself dressed as a burglar and then in prison uniform that Sally kindly made for me to keep the joke/gag running.
They are all on my Facebook page if you’d like to take a look, tomorrow we are posting my release picture after I was released from my week in captivity as there was no evidence to detain me any longer. Facebook Page.
Been busy since we have been back and finally have a pathway up to the new warehouse that was put up back in June, no more muddy feet up to pick the balloons. We fitted the electrics the week before we went on the road to France and the pathway the week after getting back from our travels.
The Zoom we had last week was most enjoyable and we had the most ever joining us, fourteen people attended and twisted along, thanks to all, appreciated and the next Zoom will be late November and a couple of Christmas designs.
Amazing reductions are available on the Qualatex range with lots of product with 50% off and more, please take a look,
Balloon Art Wholesale.
We will also be getting the full Kalisan range in 160 and 360 that are available in the UK,
they should be on the website and live possibly Tuesday with a little luck.
Off to find the random balloon picture of the week, not too random as it’s Sarah wearing all her stolen jewel’s from the Louvre,
well it made me smile and chuckle.
