Did you know every samba band has it's own signatu Did you know every samba band has it's own signature colour or pattern?

RG regular Tom the Pom used discarded tapes he found here at RG to add colour to the drums of @@sambaninja .  He gets extra credit for reusing the backing of the tape to create the black and white stripes. 

We usually have a range of end of roll tapes here - masking, packaging, foam sealing, insulating, double-sided and single-sided adhesive tape. Come on in and see if you can find what you need before you head to the big $ store.

ALL SOLD If you have ever wanted to walk on water ALL SOLD

If you have ever wanted to walk on water, now is your chance! 

We have four walk on water inflatable balls with access zipper and holes for safety rope, which stops the ball from floating away. 
Balls are two metres in diameter and made from PVC. 

These inflatable balls are widely used for backyard games, swimming pools and water sport events, great fun for the whole family! 

Additionally to this, these inflatable balls would be great ideal for an event, fill them with a mixture of wild and wonderful materials. 

There is one pump available, 800W electric blower which makes inflating a breeze. Easily done in 10-15 mins. 

Four Inflatable balls are $120 each.

Pump is $30 (first in best dressed).

One custom designed green faux fur cover (which has an inbuilt zipper to encase the inflatable ball) $60.
