Deliveries...........I love my job!

Delieveries can be so much fun in our industry! From flowers to bring a smile to a little girl in hospital to a huge balloon bouquet being sent to someone who's trying to keep their Birthday a secret........needless to say we ensured it didn't stay that way!

Fun, fun, fun!

It's been a while since our last blog. We've been a little preoccupied since moving into our new premises! Since our last post, we've been busy with costumes, balloons and quite a few functions!
Once again, we had the pleasure of decorating Lismore Square Retailer Awards with a Rock N Roll theme in red and black. This also gave us a chance to play at City Hall.........such a large space to decorate. A few photos are below to give an idea of the night.
Baseball Australia's opening dinner, weddings, engagements and large birthday celebrations have kept us busy setting up on a Saturday afternoon.
Our most recent function was for the Lismore Business Awards held at SCU's Zest Function Room. The front entry featuring above.
We've added a few items to our costume range as well. You'll find some images on our Facebook page.

How it's made - a Qualatex balloon

Thought we'd have a little fun this month and show you how balloons are made. I love how the neck of a balloon is done - ingenious! Don't forget to check our Facebook page - Let's Party Lismore! I hope everyone has a safe and Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year!

Training Day!

At the end of August, I presented for the first time at a training day held by BASA in Brisbane. I presented the rainbow topiary (shown) and a raceday centrepiece. After a busy day of teaching/learning, we (trainers & participants) put together decor for our psycodelic hippy night! With neon balloons flouresed by a black light - we had a great weekend!

We're Back!

It's been a few months since I last wrote a blog. The good news is - we've been busy getting Costumes out and helping people celebrate! So, it's time for a little update I feel! As you may know we've moved the shop to Dawson Street and added costume hire. Since moving, we've helped people celebrate many a birthday, wedding, halloween and race day and we're about to head into school formals. Most recently, we sponsored (with decorations) the Summerland Sunrise Rotary Club's annual Breakfast to raise funds for the Breast Cancer Foundation in the Northern Rivers. We were looking at something upbeat that Celebrated Life instead of dwelling on the sadder side of breast cancer. I think you'll agree that our centrepiece certainly met the mark. Hope to see you all soon - come and visit - if only to see our new shop!

Hi guys, it's that time again!
Lismore now has an Internationally Accredited Balloon Artist in it's midst! Yes, I passed my final exams and now hold the title of a CBA (Certified Balloon Artist). This took me quite a while to achieve by completing 3 written exams and finally the practical exam including a 15 minute interview asking questions from the mass of information required to pass the first 3 exams.
On the decorating front, we had the pleasure of working with Katie O'Rourke from Cake Marketing with the Sex and the City 2 Opening Night Fundraiser that has raised over $3000.00 for the Far North Coast Cancer Council. Congratulations once again Katie!
For all the brides to be or anyone else who wants to come; don't forget to join us at the 2010 Lismore Bridal Fair to be held on Sunday, 20th June at the Workers Sports Club, Goonellabah! We'll be presenting a few new designs for those special occassions - so put it in the diary!
Have a great Day!
