1st AEON Balloon Festival

Posted by Twisted Balloons in Creations, Events on June 14th, 2010

On 10-14th June, I was given the opportunity to take part in the 1st AEON Balloon Festival as a participant in both the workshop as well as the competition. The event was held at Malacca in the AEON Jusco shopping mall. The open concept of the competition drew a vast number of crowd. The competition was 50% based on the voting of the shoppers on that day, this perhaps added to the sense of involvement of the shoppers in this “festival”.

Below are some of the photos taken, for sharing =)

The 2 large scale fish shown below were done by Mr Stone Chang and his team of balloon artists from Taiwan.

Below are some photos taken at the workshop.

Below are some photos taken with the instructors of the workshop.

Frederick from Singapore and myself made a balloon costume for the costume exhibition based on his design, below are some photos.

Ms Charisa from the Phillipines and myself made a piece for the competition, this is how it looked like.

Hope this entry had been enriching as the workshop had been for me! Will see you guys again soon, happy twisting! =)

2 Birthdays

Posted by Twisted Balloons in Creations, Events on May 23rd, 2010

There were 2 birthday parties on the 16th May. Both girls were turning 21!

In the afternoon, I went to Richard’s place to make a balloon dress for her daughter Celia, in the presence of David, who rendered advice and help. It took me around 3 hours to finish up the dress but I couldn’t stay to put it on for her because I was going to Mel’s party at night. Therefore I had to leave it to David to settle the rest.

Thereafter, I attended Mel’s party and most of the steppers gang were there. It was at Raffles Town Club, a cool place for such an event, and the food was great! Happy birthday to Celia and Mel!
