Lightbulb Balloon HQ

Hey

Anyways as you can imagine as a Beginer clown I have used many books and looked at many on the subject of balloon twisting. However the other day, after realizing there where no more twisting books to take out of the library, i searched the web for some new twisting ideas.I found this awesome one with alot of info on it. There are suggestions and ideas form everything from how to make a basic dog too on-liners on your creations and how to Minimize the squeaking while twisting. I found this web-site an awesome sorce and am plannign to visit it again.

You can find it at Balloon HQ - Educating the World About Balloons and Balloon Art
I just thought I would drop in and let all you clowns know, I think It would have somthing for everybody on there so if you looking for some help with twisting or just some new ideas have a peek

Balloon HQ is great! Also, if you go to Videos on ExpertVillage.com | How to videos, free video clips & more & search for Balloon Twisting instructions, you get a whole mess of video instructions from basic one balloon animals to crazy hats to more complicated stuff. I've gotten lots of useful things from there.

I am so glade you like balloon HQ. I as well learned a lot from that web site. I think you should check out a few dealers for great prices on balloons and training tools. Here are a few:
Lauderdale Paper & Balloon Co.
T. Myers Magic - Welcome
Clownsupplies.com:clown supplies since 1977!
Balloons and Clowns
LaRocks Fun and Magic Outlet
I think that should give you a few places to shop arond and get some really cool and fun things. Let me know if you have any qustions. I think you also might want to talk to fizz willy because this is his main skill as a clown and he knows a lot. Good luck on your twisting and like always bump a nose.
