β¨ Giving flowers where flowers are dueβ¦ β¨
For YEARS, I have admired my incredibly talented friend Dede of Balloonacy Boston and her original creation, Bella the Balloon Bride. ππ°ββοΈ
Bella has always been one of those pieces that stopped me in my tracks. The creativity, artistry, patience, and TALENT it takes to create something like her is incredible β and Dede has inspired me more than she probably realizes. π
After admiring Bella for years, I finally got brave enough to attempt my own version! Meet Baby Bellππ°ββοΈπ
She may be the baby of the family, but let me tell youβ¦ it ainβt easy being cheesy! ππ§
Dede, thank you for inspiring me, encouraging creativity in this crazy balloon world, and for being someone whose work I have looked up to for so long. It means even more to me that I get to call you my friend. π©·
Hereβs to Bella the Balloon Bride β the ORIGINAL π β and her little admirer, Baby Bella. π
Love you, Dede! Keep creating, inspiring, and showing us what can be done with a little latex and a whole lot of imagination. πβ¨
