New Hat Balloon Menu

Here is my newest menu just for balloon hats. Hats are always so fun to make and wear. I twist balloons at a local bowling center sometimes and I make lots of hats when I'm there. The bowlers seem to have more fun when bowling with a balloon hat. As with all my menus, they are meant to give suggestions and spark imaginations. I also take requests for things not included on the menus.

Pirate Balloons

I twisted for another pirate birthday party today. They are always so fun. The pirate centerpiece is always well received and the hat is great. I've seen lots of balloon pirate hats but this one is my favorite. It's based on a Mark Byrne hat I saw on balloonhq.com.

It's Hip To Be Square Hat

I've seen hats like this a few times before so I decided to make it today. It's quick, easy and fun. I like it. I may have to try it out at my next balloon job.

Coyote

This was really fun to make. I copied it from a photo posted at balloon-animals.com by ikepete. I always watched roadrunner and coyote cartoons on Saturday mornings when I was younger.

New Balloon Menu

Here are my newest balloon menus. The orange menu is for large events (fairs and festivals) where quick, simple balloons are requested so that each person receives a balloon in the allotted time, not enough time for the blue menu. The red menu is all bracelets. Bracelets have become so popular that I wanted to showcase them and show more bracelet options.




The blue menu is my favorite and most used menu. I love the designs on the blue menu and I get great responses from the figures. In situations where I will use the blue menu (birthday parties, family reunions, weddings, etc) I will use the red bracelet menu along with it.



I also have an all hats menu that I hope will be done by the end of this month. HAT MENU DONE!

Bald Eagle

This eagle is so amazing. I think it's the coolest thing I've made so far. The design is by Patrick van de Ven. This is a delivery for a young man receiving his Eagle in Boy Scouts of America this evening.

Disney-style Hats

Here are some Disney-style hats I learned for a gig. Mickey and Minnie designs are by Patricia Bunnell. Goofy design is by Ed Chee. Pluto design is by Don Caldwell. Donald is based on Patricia Bunnell designs.

Little Dudes

I've seen these cute little guys on other twisters' menus but I never paid much attention to them. Well, today while browsing through Buster Balloon's iTwist Workshop I watched a tutorial on making this little guy. I had to try it out and it turns out this is a great, cute, super fast little dude to make. You can add any printed head you want and accessorize accordingly. I'm calling him the Little Dude. I think he's pretty fun.

Superhero Hats

I love these hats! The design is by the amazing Don Caldwell (Buster Balloon on youtube). He is my very favorite balloon twister and these hats are just one reason why. The heads are pre-printed 5" rounds from Qualatex.

Optimus Prime

This is a fun robot design by MB Floyd of balloon-animals.com. He has lots of great instructional videos so if you want to learn to twist balloons, balloon-animals.com is a great resource.

Bowling Dog

My son and I came up with this to display at our favorite bowling center. I think they will enjoy it!

More Silly Hats

More silly hats from the Twisted Toppers CD by Stretch, the balloon dude. There are 22 hat designs on this CD and I've only done a few so you'll probably be seeing more in the next few days. The CD is well worth the purchase price.

Silly Hats

I'm learning some fun hat designs from a CD by Stretch, the balloon dude. The CD is called Twisted Toppers and it is packed with easy, silly, fun hat designs.

Green Bearoon

Cute little bearoon with bouquet delivery piece I made for a young man trying to woo a young lady.

Patriotic Bouquet

This fun patriotic bouquet is a delivery for my favorite local bowling center.

Turkey

I made this turkey for a gig I have at my local bowling center. It will be given to the first bowler that scores a turkey (3 strikes in a row) and then passed around to the next and the next all night. The bowler that has possession of the turkey at the end of the night gets to take it home. Turkey design from Flower Clown.

Blooming Rose

This is a beautiful rose design by Ed Chee. The petals really look like they're opening in layers just like a real rose. I'm so excited to learn this flower.

Wedding Couple Lootles

This is a great wedding couple design from Robbie Furman. This was ordered as a decoration for a wedding shower. This came out so nice.

Booth

This was my booth set-up for an outdoors festival I worked this weekend. It worked very well. Now I have the equipment I need (and want) to have a pretty comfortable work-space when I do these types of events.

Dental Hygienist Lootle

This is a look-alike lootle I made for my AWESOME dental hygienist. It's difficult to see in the photos but she's got dental floss strung between her hands. Everyone at the dental office got a kick out of it. It was really fun to make and give. I just love to see the smiles my balloons generate. Lootle is a Robbie Furman design.
