3. Why
Fabric Balloon Balls?
Combining so
many aspects I love into one just seemed to make sense:
-Sewing & creating, especially things
that are reusable, & the color scheme possibilities are endless.
-Sending & receiving real mail.
-Having played a lot of sports growing up as
the only girl in my family with 4 brothers.
-Festivities [hence the line of custom decor
balloon ball garlands] & good old fashioned backyard fun.
- Finding a little niche out there to
contribute & participate in the home & craft blogging world that I have
been enjoying for so long.
-Sharing
things I love to make, with others.
Originally,
I decided to make balloon balls to send to 11 nieces & nephews in the mail
for Valentine's. But then I thought more people need to know about these &
I would be delighted to make them. So I applied for a booth at a popular local
craft show & was accepted. The balloon ball booth was successful so I put a
little more focus into developing a shop on Etsy. Many thanks to Amelia from the Etsy shop MarigoldRegards for the Etsy help!
One of the
things I love most about constructing fabric balloon balls is the fact that the
final step for balloon ball completion is left up to the recipient who blows up
their fabric balloon ball for the first time, and many times more after that,
ultimately reaping the giggles & fun memories made. The reusable nature of the fabric balloon
ball allows balloon ball fans to let the balloon ball come & go as they
please. Perfect for indoor/outdoor use, packing in a purse, traveling light to
the lake, camping, gifting near or far; the list could go on. I love sharing in
the process of creating such festive, bright and bouncy, reusable toys and
decor, providing instant backyard fun anywhere, any season!
4. Are you
going to post only about Fabric Balloon Balls on your blog?
I am
currently on a balloon ball kick. But I
would love to do more tutorial posts like the DIY Play Parachute tutorial.
