Balloon Sculpturing at Marina Bay Sands SkyPark on 28th August 2010

I weren't feeling my best but lucky me, the weather was kind to me. Though hot and sunny, there was wind. =)
While twisting balloons, I saw a really cute baby. After making a poddle for her, her mum and aunties requested for something too. Really happy that they liked the flower bracelets. Before they left, they mentioned that they don't see such designs in Taiwan . *sweet =D

A lady caught my attention here. She was sitting on the floor, pen in one hand, concentrated and drawing the scenery. She requested for a balloon hat and that was what i gave her, except that it was bigger and more colourful than she had expected.

Apart from the usual designs, many boys were practicing archery after my demonstration of the balloon bow and arrow. They love it and were thrilled at the distance the arrow flew. =P A pretty birthday girl got the Elmo she want. =) Some pictures to mark the half day here.
The lady who drew so well, just for interest. =)

Flower power from my Taiwanese guests

22 August 2010 at MBS Skypark

Overjoyed boy with his lollipop

This boy made me wonder why he was so happy when i made a balloon lollipop. His parents explained that he don't get to eat sweets and therefore even a fake one gets him spiked up!

A group of guests staying at the hotel requested for a number of balloons including his son's favourite, Thomas the train. Though that character was my first attempt, I was delighted that she loves it. =)

Balloons aren't always for the young. See the photo and you will understand what i mean. Even the matures appreciates nice sculptures when they see one.
My first attempt. Glad she likes it! =D


Special request from staff for her friend's birthday

Balloons fit for the mature crowd

That's all for now, folks! =P

Michael was at Ferraria Park Condo doing a simplified Ben 10 theme deco job early afternoon. I joined him and made the birthday boy a bonus extra Ben 10 balloon sculpture. I did not have my balloon bag with me so with only a pack of Q entertainment pack 260s balloon from Michael, I tried to finish the product. There is no white balloon in the bag, i managed to find another picture of Ben 10 in another different shirt and used what i had to make him one.

MBS Skypark 14th & 15th August 2010

Confessions, i were feeling jeebish about 2 full days at MBS Skypark. First, I haven't been there for 2 weeks already and i forgotten the feel of standing and sculpturing balloons. Second and the most important thing was that i don't know how my body will take the aches after two days. =3

Eventually, numb fingers after first night and I couldn't feel my arms after I finish the second night. However, I'm super delighted by the smiles and the small talks with kids and adults. And I am happy to be of service to Prof. S.Jayakumar, Senior minister and co-ordinating minister for national security. Made a cute poodle fast, before he head down to the lift lobby with the baby girl in his arms. =)

Just a couple of pictures I'm afraid. Promise to take more the next time I'm there.

What better way than to take a picture first on a bright, sunny morning! =D


The 2 sisters were delighted with the balloon sculptures.


This charming boy was so excited with his aeroplane, he hugged me twice! =)
