I've had a busy morning as just filmed four tutorials for the new forum, Mouse, Crown, Parrot and the Bird designs. The Parrot did not go as smoothly as I'd hoped as a pinch twist got caught under the perch and between the Parrots feet. I've just watched as was...

I've had a very relaxing and enjoyable weekend. Filmed some tutorials this week for the new forum and Sonic is one of the designs I will be posting onto the new forum sometime soon, The Balloon Artistes Guild.

Today seems a little odd as for the past six years the first Sunday of the month we have been posting the latest BalloonTube tutorial. As the last one in July was the 100th edition we thought it would be good time to have a break and move onto the next part of my...

Hi Everyone, it's been a little stressful this week with trying to get the new forum up and off the ground. It was difficult trying to put my thoughts down so my web people could make the forum work as I saw it in my head. We have had to make some variations and go to...

We can finally mention that the TV advert I helped David Crofts with back in September 2021 has finally aired and we can chat about it. It was made for “We Buy Any Car” and filmed with Phillip Schofield. David and Jana worked on the design and they asked Roger Daws...

Did anyone notice there was no blog last week? That was because of a technical issue, we did not have any internet for 5 days. It was tricky running the business without internet but we just about managed, it was great to get it back Tuesday afternoon though. So last...
