Our face painter was absolutely magical! Her designs were so detailed, and she is very talented. She was so patient with all of the kids, which we appreciated. We will definitely use this company again in the future!

October 16, 2023Stephen- Balloon Twisting
We hired Stephen for 6 hours at our booth at a very large event. From the moment he arrived to the moment he finished, he was amazing entertainment and outstanding with children AND adults. He spoke Spanish, he was very talented at balloon art, and he was absolutely hilarious (kept us adults laughing all day!). I can't speak highly enough of this company, don't miss out on hiring them for your event!

September 3, 2023Fantastic Artist
Amber was the perfect person to entertain my small group of grandchildren at a celebration party. The children absolutely loved her talented skills of face painting, balloon twisting and glitter tattoos. Highly recommended.

What to expect
Face Painting: We use professional grade, FDA approved, washable face paint. We can create detailed, full faces for smaller parties (12-15 in one hour), and can also handle large crowds with faster, simpler designs (up to 20 in an hour).
Glitter Tattoos: Glitter tattoos are an awesome way to have fun in the summer. Glitter tattoos are waterproof and can stay on for up to 4 days. With a large variety of designs for both girls and boys, this option is great for pool parties and parties involving water play. It's also very popular at Princess Parties.
Balloon Twisting: Animals, swords, hearts and flowers - there's something for everyone in the wide array of balloons we can twist, and we are fast!
