What to play around with to start?

[vegaburm]

I have thought about learning to do balloons to have something else to offer at birthdays. I have a hard time sticking to one thing it seems. lol. What is a good kit to begin with? I was looking at the starter kit on silly farm.....

just start out by watching you tube video's, they will do just fine for you to learn, very easy to follow along with

They have some good starter kits on www.tmyers.com too.

i got some balloons at the dollar store to practice on...big waste of money....they weren't worth it...just go ahead and get some good balloons...you will be glad you did....believe me, i am not good at this..but it's fun...i just tell them when they ask for something specific and it doesn't turn out right...i just say..."hey, it's a kidney"...or "it's your intestines"...they always laugh when i do that...especially when my twists come undone and make funny shapes...sometimes being perfect isn't as good as being imperfect...at least you get them to laugh....

OK, I love the ball inside the balloon kit on TMyers that looks like tons of fun. My internet won't allow me to watch very many videos so I'm thinking I'll get the silly farm kit with DVD and maybe this ball kit. That should give me plenty to see if I want to continue or not.

Speaking of balloons, I have a balloon event coming up Friday, so I need to get hot on practicing my balloons this week!
