Bringing work home for Christmas. Baubles and inspired foil tinsels courtesy of dreams.

These have got to be the brightest balloons in town this Christmas! 🤩 Fluorescent balloon-bubble-baubles and neon startpoints bring a vibrant take on the xmas decor at .

Some simple custom crafty extras and hand-painted details convert these bubble balloons into giant inflated festive baubles.

At night, the special UV-reactive pink latex from will glow under the in-house UV lights.

Gold, bold and bowtiful. 🎁

This is the second time I have decorated Nicola’s conservatory at Christmas time. We know the spot that works best in terms of placement for practicalities but rather than recreate the same installation again we took things in a different direction with some characterful balloon embellishments.

I always want to deliver something memorable. When I return to a familiar house or venue to decorate for a second or third time, I like to offer up new techniques or a new aesthetic.

These big hand-twisted balloon bows set off this otherwise traditional organic-style balloon installation and take it to a new level. Something fun, festive and fabulous - what Christmas is all about.

Thanks for having me back!

🌨️My snowfall snowball snow-wall is currently enjoying it’s winter season at .

The three storey salon with its striking industrial central staircase gave all the height I could dream of for this subtle but effective cascade balloon treatment.

The reception space is open to all so go take a look and pick up some lovely Xmas gifts while you’re there. I did! ☃️

Thanks and - always love to develop an idea with you and get to work in that gorgeous salon.

Congratulations to all the talented nominees and winners at the NWM Awards 2024. It was great to be back and involved with the decor for another year.

My new big shiny balls got their first outing. These 4ft, 3ft and 2ft inflatables were suspended in the large auditorium at to create a dramatic overhead centrepiece for the event.

The mirror shine of these giant reusable inflatables is fantastic and I look forward to using them again at future events.

Thanks to the King’s Centre for use of your ideal in-house rig and of course Grace for indulging in big decor! Great to work alongside .events.norfolk on this project.

Thanks for this shot 📸(forgive my crops/edits to focus on the balloons here 😬🫣).

Whatta lotta little axolotls lately!

This time, the finished centrepiece which sparked my recent axolotl obsession.

When this enquiry came in I knew I had my work cut out but I’m super pleased with these little guys adorning their mini-stack centrepiece for birthday celebrations.

Thanks to for trusting in the process and allowing me to develop this arrangement.

I hear the characters were well received by their recipient but then what’s not to love about axolotls and their cute little smiles, especially when in balloon form. 😊

Balloons especially for the occasion. An overhead array of my globes lovingly installed by me. Enjoy yourselves!

I’ve returned to the Gunton Building at to dream up another installation to coincide with the launch of ‘Dreams’, Issue 28 of Storehouse Magazine.

It is a real blessing to be asked back by the latest team at . I honour the tradition by trying to bring a fresh aesthetic to the balloons and align with each new cover artwork/concept they publish.

This edition, I took colour palette cues and from the two dreamy covers with artwork by and .creations. I injected acrylic paint between layers of bubble balloons and latex balloons to create a unique custom colour effect underneath the surface.

Storehouse 28 is out now and it’s a real dream-come-true of an issue, celebrating and showcasing some of the amazing work and practices of our local NUA students.

20 years of the food hall.

Make it your destination this weekend to help celebrate the wonderful transformation of this basement space over the last 20 years to the jewel of the Norwich shopping experience it is today.

I love this place and I also appreciate the support given to a small business like me to bring some balloons to decorate the anniversary. Thanks 🙏

In August, I worked with to bring some uplifting colour to their spacious salon tucked in the small village of Heydon.

It’s always such a peaceful place to work - Heydon is a picturesque village and a lovely place to spend an afternoon with walks, cafes and shops to explore. Friendly sheep bleating cheerfully in the neighbouring field.🐑

Balloonwise, an aerial display of my coated latex globes provided a durable and long lasting display. They are a favourite amongst businesses where decor to last a season is preferred over a display for a single day event.

It’s a joyful way to celebrate the summer months and will stretch into the Autumn.

The high ceiling at and the welcoming space created by Hannah lends itself so well to this type of installation. And I am in LOVE with the colour scheme that Hannah and I developed.

If you would like a durable suspended ceiling installation, get in touch and I will come and assess your space for suitability. Some spaces are challenging although there is usually an approach that works.

Thanks Hannah for trusting in the vision again, this might be our best one together yet!

A milestone ain’t nothing but a number and any number can be a milestone to celebrate.

Sometimes a birthday is worth celebrating because it’s been a particularly great or a particularly difficult year. Whatever the reason, every birthday is worth celebrating as far as I’m concerned and I’m here to bring the balloons to the party whatever the number.

This project was a special one and I loved bringing this explosive starburst number stack to Cat’s surprise birthday celebrations.

If you have a friend, relative or a loved one you’d like to treat with a joyful gift, balloons won’t disappoint. A free-standing piece like this will keep going long after your event and can be taken home to enjoy beyond the celebration date.

Give me a little direction of colours, words or interests that you know they’ll love and I’ll take care of the rest.

Delivery or collection available. Choose something memorable and unqiue for your loved ones. 🎈

My ‘skinny’ garlands are becoming a popular choice as a quick and economical solution for your event decor.

Skinny, because they use mostly smaller balloons compared to my thicker organic-style installations. They provide impact to lift a smaller area such as a domestic living space or a smaller focal point at your venue.

This colourful example was all that was needed to set the scene for Teddy’s 1st birthday. Thanks to and for letting me share this pic of their beautiful home 🙏.

Rigging was simple and damage-free utilising easy-to-remove masking tape, I have the techniques to make it strong enough to hold up for the duration of your event.

Charged by the metre with design, installation, delivery fees as appropriate. OR avoid fees altogether and collect from my Duke Street studio in Norwich.

If you have a celebration coming up - give me a shout and I’ll be happy to discuss customised colours. Have something that looks personal, luxurious and forget about out all the shopping, inflating and knot tying - I’ll take care of that 🎈😇.

The sun was shining for Summer Party 2024. What a location! Outside their offices on the Upper Green with Norwich Cathedral providing a majestic backdrop.☀️

Leathes Prior didn’t hold back on this event, treating their clients with tastes, sounds, visuals and entertainment from a host of local suppliers:

It was a treat to collaborate with the team from once again. Their vertical tent posts offered an ideal spot to adorn with balloon garlands and create an entrance feature for the tent.

I took the brand colours and gave them a contemporary luxe twist with a palette of ‘White Sand’, ‘Storm’, ‘Stone’ and ‘Mirror Navy’ - some of my favourite colours on offer from .

Outdoor balloon installations can be a challenge but the low breeze, the shade of the tent, (a bit of balloon experience) and marvellous cooperation from the Leathes Prior team made this a joy to install.

Summertime number stack scene with flowers and bees accompanied by my big balloon dog - AKA ‘Latex Rex’.

Delivered readymade as instant focal points, props and centrepieces for your celebration.

Personalised handmade balloon gifts will be memorable talking points at your occasion. Quite often becoming the favourite gift due to the the joy and smiles they bring.

I always try to build my creations as robust as possible. If treated carefully they can bring joy long after your event.

The hand-twisted bees seen here were inspired by a sweet design I loved shared by

Thanks for this cute project

Dragon Hall is a treasured Grade-1 listed merchant’s trading hall in the heart of Norwich. The adjacent glass gallery and garden make this a self contained event-space ideal for a wedding.

When I was approached about decorating the glass gallery space for a summer wedding, I knew this had potential for a beautiful burst of balloon colour.

Visually, the glass structure with its medieval backdrop of Dragon Hall is enticing for one of my suspended balloon arrays.

The venue offers a rare opportunity to view the balloon installation from inside and outside the building.

The only concern was the the sunshine. This is an all-glass structure - effectively a giant greenhouse. I was wanting to display balloons which do not like heat or direct sunlight, both of which are amplified in this environment (especially at the end of June at the tail end of a heatwave).

I am pleased to say that not one balloon burst! I took every extra precautions at a balloon creative’s disposal. I double layered each balloon, I pre-inflated, I under-inflated very balloon to two thirds it’s size. The thicker layer of latex gave better protection against any expansion or degradation that accelerates in the sun and heat.

The team at were great for allowing me access and experimentation to make this work.

A lot of venues understandably discourage the use of helium balloons. My air-filled suspended solutions have no risk of helium balloons getting stuck in high ceilings. I ensure that everything is safely rigged in a damage-free way and take care of all the installation, derig and disposal. It’s a full service.

If you have a challenging venue or a space to personalise with a bit of colour then please get in touch and I’ll be happy to explore options and suggestions with you.

Free-standing organic-style balloon columns are a great option for balloon decor when there is limited options for rigging/fixing or you want something that is flexible that can be easily moved or delivered ready-made when set-up time is limited.

They were the perfect solution for my recent collaboration with and in Great Yarmouth. A special event to reward a local hero, Brad, with a surprise party with his family and friends to celebrate his kindness within his community providing haircuts for the homeless.

Thanks to the team at Great Yarmouth Costa Coffee and LadBilble for making this a thoroughly enjoyable project to work on. And congratulations Brad, keep up the magnificent work!

My Approach

There isn't an occasion that I'm not open to discuss. I've created balloon decor for birthdays, weddings, club nights, corporate events, launches and even funerals.

After learning about the focus of your upcoming special occasion, my design process usually starts with a site visit. Whether it's a dance floor, a garden, your business or your home, I approach every location with an open mind and fresh eyes. Balloon decor is at its best when it harmonises with the surrounding space so I always look out for opportunities to incorporate existing features and structures to design around.

The available colours and themes are as broad as our imaginations. An elegant colour scheme applied to an organic garland might be all that's required. Including a premium finish or more creative elements can elevate things to the next level. Alternatively, go all out with a giant Ariel installation or cloud. If the scale and budget is smaller, bouquets and centrepieces might be all that's needed to bring joy to a special celebration and certainly wont compromise on creativity.

Whatever ideas I put forward, I understand the limitations of budget and will always be happy to suggest suitable alternatives.
