I actually found this book to be quite helpful. I've beentrying to find a good guide to help me decorate for parties andweddings on the side, but haven't had any luck in bookstores. They'realways too expensive, or have too many pictures without explanations, or too much explanation without any pictures. This one is perfectly balanced and to the point.

This very informative book will take all the hassle and worry out of starting your own business. The author gives excellent detail about office equipment and set up and displays a sense of humor in describing her own philosophy of starting and pursuing her venture into the art of balloon decorating. The easy to follow instructions and many photographs make this step- by-step book a 'must have' for starting your own balloon business.

I through several parties, and this book has made me the hit of my town. I found the balance between pictures and step by step instruction to be perfect. I was able to easily follow the given ideas, as well as generate many more of my own.

I hope she expands into other areas.

I found this book to be a delightful addition to my craft book collection. It was such an easy read that I just bought a copy for my Mom. I know she will enjoy it. I recomend this book to both the beginer and seasoned professional.

This book is fantastic.

I've been looking for this book for over a year. I finally found someone auctioning it off on eBay. I ended up paying $60 for it, but it's worth every penny I spent!

Even tho it was published in 1992, its still relevant. Altho, I'd love to see an updated edition.

Just a note: the author is from CA, so alot of the business info in the beginning of the book is CA specific.

I am looking for this book " The art, craft and business of balloon decorationg" by ruth younger. If you have it and want to sell it please email me. Marisol.custodio@mccann.com

thank you,

A disappointing book considering its price. The photographs are in black and white (despite its glossy cover) and the decorating methods seem rather dated. I feel that some of the techniques are open to quetion. I kept the book, but only to avoid the shipping charge from UK to USA.

Not recommended at all
