Booked for Birthday party

We arranged face painting for our lil ones 5th bday party for 15 children. First of all the experience and process of arranging a face painting artist via pop top was smooth and very professional.It is better to give them a call directly and get things sorted out whilst on the call.They are professionals, very helpful and happy to consider discounts according to the situation. Secondly, Irina the face painting artist who agreed to do our event, went way beyond our requirements to make sure the kids were happy.She was there for a total of 1.5 hours for 15 kids.The party was unicorn and rainbow themed.The face patterns were amazing and elegant.I would call her again and recommend her to anyone. Thankyou so much Irina.

Booked for Other Event

Everything was super easy to organise. Great communication with Jo. She brought everything she needed and provided me with a risk assessment and public liability insurance prior to the event. Jo was great with the kids and very easy to chat to. She was a great asset to our fete. She was very professional and diligent in checking for allergies and minimum ages as well as parents/guardians remaining present.

Booked for Birthday party for kids

Gary and Sarah were exceptional at my child’s 5th birthday party. I originally booked the face painting and balloon package but after realising that I needed music - we booked the mini disco and magic show also! Gary was very adaptable and accommodating every time we communicated leading up to the event. On the day, the kids loved the entertainment and it kept them entertained for the whole 2 hours! Sarah is an amazingly gifted face painter and did most of the children’s faces effortlessly to perfection. Thanks again to you both for making my son’s birthday so memorable- he has insisted that you are invited every year!

Booked for Birthday party

Belinda was fantastic, communicated well before the event, arrived on time. She had taken note of our child’s interests and prepared specific designs for them. She calmly managed to paint every child that wanted to be painted and then moved on to a few adults too!

Booked for Wedding

We absolutely recommend Squeaky. We hired him for our wedding- much better, we thought, than standing in a queue for face-painting or similar. He arrived early and stayed late. The 25 children at our wedding, from the 2 year olds to the 10 year olds, followed him around like he was the Pied Piper of Hamlin. I have to admit, I'm not the most massive fan of clowns and it's not particularly my bag but he was fantastic with the kids and they absolutely loved it. I don't think you'd regret booking squeaky.
