Day 126: My Apprentice

I've mentioned a few times that I'd taken on a new student and was teaching her the basics of balloon entertainment.


Here she is. This is the picture I took on graduation day from the balloon school.


She went from knowing a few basic shapes like the standard dog, and now knows dozens of designs and is ready to give entertaining in a restaurant a try. I'm quite confident that with the training I gave her, and the skills she showed me, that she's going to do great.


I've got another student lined up from when I get back from Las Vegas next weekend, but I'm hoping to find some more people interested in learning.


Anyone that reads this in the North East Ohio area that is interested in learning a fun new skill that can be quite lucrative, feel free to contact me.


Also, if any of the readers are from Las Vegas, I have a few questions about street performers. Anyone know the laws there for entertaining on the street for tips? I'll have some down time every once in a while, and I thought it would be fun to make some balloons out there and try to earn enough to surprise the wife with tickets to a show or something.
