(Fun fact: Pi\u00f1a Dorada means &#8220;Golden Pineapple&#8221; in English!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monica is an Interior Architect by profession and Darys is a Graphic Designer. After practicing balloon art privately for three years, Monica quit her job in 2019 to fulfill this great dream of having a balloon decoration company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like anything worth achieving, it was very difficult at first. But over time we managed to find our own style and types of decorations and events that we like to create for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"imagegallery\" href=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/UGlu-is-perfect-for-balloon-decor-in-hot-and-humid-climates.jpg\" rel=\"imagegallery5216\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/UGlu-is-perfect-for-balloon-decor-in-hot-and-humid-climates-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"UGlu is perfect for balloon d\u00e9cor in hot and humid climates\" class=\"wp-image-5234\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>More recently, we attended various trainings and events for balloon artists locally and internationally. In January 2022, we managed to be exhibitors at the renowned international convention called &#8220;FLOAT the Convention.&#8221; It was a great and enriching experience!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a lot of effort and dedication, we have fulfilled several dreams. We have met very good balloon artists and decorators, great people that we constantly admire. The sky is the limit of our dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What do you like about being a balloon artist?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We love to push our creativity and always try to achieve more with each balloon arrangement or decoration. We also love to make our clients happy, of course! To know that our effort and dedication brings them joy makes it worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"imagegallery\" href=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/The-Pina-Dorada-team-first-discovered-UGlu-at-a-balloon-convention.jpg\" rel=\"imagegallery5216\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/The-Pina-Dorada-team-first-discovered-UGlu-at-a-balloon-convention-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"The Pi\u00f1a Dorada team first discovered UGlu at a balloon convention\" class=\"wp-image-5230\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How did you discover UGlu\u00ae products?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We discovered the products a few years ago at a convention. If I&#8217;m not mistaken, it was at GLOBOCOM 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How does UGlu\u00ae improve your work as a balloon artist? What do you like about it?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"\/uglu-balloon-tape\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UGlu\u00ae<\/a> is the absolute best for making our balloon arrangements. Particularly in Panama, due to the hot and humid climate, it is not easy to use any type of glue, since the humidity causes it to detach in minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We love UGlu\u00ae products because they do not come off, and we can trust that the customer\u2019s delivery will last a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"imagegallery\" href=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/UGlu-allows-balloon-artists-to-attach-all-kinds-of-details-and-decor-to-their-designs.jpg\" rel=\"imagegallery5216\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/UGlu-allows-balloon-artists-to-attach-all-kinds-of-details-and-decor-to-their-designs-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"UGlu allows balloon artists to attach all kinds of details and d\u00e9cor to their designs\" class=\"wp-image-5232\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We use <a href=\"\/uglu-balloon-tape\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UGlu\u00ae<\/a> in balloon bouquets to stick on foils, balloon twists and details. Our favorite type to use are the longer, rectangular pieces, because we can easily add a larger piece of d\u00e9cor or balloon shape whenever or wherever we need to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>If someone has never used UGlu\u00ae for their balloon d\u00e9cor before, what advice would you give them?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend <a href=\"\/uglu-balloon-tape\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UGlu\u00ae<\/a> tapes 10000%!!! In particular, we recommend getting the box of large tapes (the <a href=\"\/products\/uglu-900-contractor-pack\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UGlu\u00ae Contractor Pack<\/a>) because we feel that it allows us balloon artists to be very dynamic.
