Introduction
We are Mind Blowing Balloons Chicago, the #1 balloon twisting company on Thumbtack in the Chicagoland area! As an offshoot of a very successful California company, we have been trained by the best and are sure to bring expertise at any event we service. **We are officially taking requests for early 2025 events. Pricing has been updated. We do not schedule events more than 3 months out. Contact us before we fill up!** ***1 hour minimum for all events, 90 min minimum for events more than 1 hour away (possible additional travel fee), 2 hour minimum for events more than 90 mins away (possible additional travel fee)*** Prices and possible fees finalized before confirmation of service. We have a team of 5 twisters, all with at least 6 years of experience in the field. Each balloon artist is adaptable to a variety of events, such as birthday parties, holiday events, religious celebrations, indoor and outdoor festivals and community events, and much more. We have 4 different "levels" of balloons twisting, ordered by complexity and time it takes to create a given balloon creation. More time allows for more complex designs, while more expected guests per hour means that the twister will have to stick to lower "level" balloons. Our baseline quality of our creations are what really set us apart from other balloon artists, so you can be certain that our creations will be sure to amaze. Consider the different "levels" of balloons as you decide the length of time for when you want a professional twister at your event. Level 1: 30-45 creations per hour Basic animals (elephants, monkeys, butterflies, etc) Basic wearables (animal bracelets, crowns, belts for swords/lightsabers, etc) Basic miscellaneous (Minecraft swords, light sabers, roses, etc) Level 2: 20-30 creations per hour Intermediate animals (flamingo, penguin, dinosaurs, etc) Intermediate characters (Spider-man, Ariel, Pluto the dog, ect) Intermediate wearables (animal hats, tiara, etc) Intermediate miscellaneous (multi-colored flowers, bow and arrows, Minecraft pick-ax, etc) Level 3 (our "Mind Blowing Creations"): 10-20 creations per hour Advanced animals (dragons, sloths, pandas, etc) Advanced wearables (jetpacks, intricate animal hats, character hats, etc) Advanced characters (Marvel/DC superheroes, Disney Princesses, Mickey, etc) Level 4 (only for select twisters, contact for more info): 5-10 per hour Individualized creations **Options vary by twister** **Creations can be requested prior to event for twisters to have prepared options to fit theme/preference of the hosts** **Twisters can take suggestions day-of, ability to create requests vary by twister**

My company had the pleasure of working with both Ryan and Nate for two of our grand opening events and we could not have been happier with both of them. They were both super engaging with the families, prompt and respectful and made amazing balloon art! We DEFINITELY plan on working with Mind Blowing Balloons for all of our future events!!

Details: Community event • 21 - 40 guests • Younger than 4 years old • 4 - 6 years old • Simple balloon twisting (e.g., one-balloon dog) • Face painting is needed

Nate was the star of the birthday party. From the minute he arrived he made sure the kids all felt like they had his attention and would get an expertly skilled balloon. When he started creating all the adults could not stop commenting about how good his designs and work was. They kept saying “where did you find this guy?! He is amazing!” When his line would dwindle down for balloon art, Nate walked around the party and asked other people if they wanted a balloon. He was personable and very kind. He even made a balloon art of an axolotl which he had no idea what it was but created an exact replica by just looking at a picture. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you Nate for a wonderful time had by all.

Details: Birthday party • 11 - 20 guests • Younger than 4 years old • Simple balloon twisting (e.g., one-balloon dog) • Face painting is not needed

Nate's balloon twisting skills are truly impressive! He delighted everyone, and the kids were thrilled. Punctual, friendly and patient. I highly recommend him for any event; he's definitely earned a spot on our contact list for future celebrations!
