Our Story
My name is Kenedra Coney-Ellis, and I am from Savannah, GA born and raised. It is a wonderful hometown that has so much to do. I started with gift baskets at a young age of 16 years old with my church that grew to me doing them for myself. I left home in 2003 and joined the Navy where I was doing gift baskets for my shipmates. In 2004 I decided to make it a business of mine even made business cards and was doing so much. That is when I got introduced to doing balloons because I was asked to do my sister’s baby shower and was like what can I do to improve myself other than doing gift baskets and diaper cakes. So I made balloon pacifiers and balloon columns.
The business was first called KC’s Goodies-In-A Basket but as I started doing more with balloons I decided that the business should be called KC’s Goodies and Balloons. This has stuck with me for now on and it has made a huge difference in my business. I not only do just gift baskets, diaper cakes, and other gift items. I am bigger with doing balloons and it has become a passion of mine that I love to this day.KC’s Goodies and Balloons are a gift and party entertainment small business reaching out locally and hoping to expand more. Our business is expanding in so many ways. We now not only offer gift baskets but diaper cakes, party supplies, and now even balloon twisting and decoration services. We want you all to just have fun with us because we are having fun doing this. When things start really picking up our business will move to stores and then keep expanding.
In 2018, I decided to take my business to another level and began training to become a Qualatex Network Member. I am a Professional balloon artist working my way to becoming a Certified Balloon Artist through the Qualatex Balloon Network. I have met many people and learning more and more techniques to the business and gaining more skills as I work on jobs. I like to see a smile on someone’s face when I bring in the balloons and they see not just balloons but a work of art to make them feel joy. This is my passion and I am not going to quit now the best is yet to come so wait and you will be overjoyed at our goodies and balloons.
