Five Little Monkeys offers a wide range of designs using nothing but top of the line cosmetic grade products! I dont even know where to begin here but I will give it go :p

I guess first I should introduce myself, hi Im Amanda ! Im a mom to five wonderful, creative, energetic monkeys who drive me crazy but keep me sane all in the same day lol.. I get asked all the time how I started my face paint

ing journey and its kinda hard to answer… it was such a fly by the seat of my pants decsion… i will say i was always creative , I was the 5 year old watchng craft shows and cutting up my mothers things to make my grand creations. I could draw, i could bake and even taught myself how to knit a crochet (my kids love my hats i make them )
Now even though i could do all this totally cool stuff at such a young age I never really got apperichated for it … it was just silly little things i did, until that is I met my husband …. He seen my creativity and nurtured it , not being a crafty person himself he was amzazed by all these silly little things I did. It was life changing for him when he seen me drawl pictures on the kids toaster strudles instead of just globing on the icing (seriously Iv never seen a grown man so mind blown by a pastry hahaha) So he gave me the confidence I needed to even start this path. I have grown so much over the past year I still cant wrap my head around it. I have met so many wondeful people and have done so many awsome events , you guys have shown me so much love this year and I hope you feel the same about me ! I keep my prices low because i know how expensive life can be, I dont take a deposit for the same reason sometimes life just happens and theres nothing you can do. I feel blessed by every opportunity to work for you and dont stress over the ones I dont. I am forever trying, learning , practicing to better my self for you !! (I make sure to tell the kids that when they ask …practice, practice .practice !!!) I know it seems like I just show up and make it look all easy ,get paid and home but its because I spend countless hours working on my craft that Im able to do that. So I guess thats my “story “ sorta summed up anyway lol
I feel like I have finally found my calling. I truly love my job and am excited to see all the new places it will take me and what new things I can offer to you in the years to come. What things do I offer you might ask ?? High grade professional paint
Uv reactive paint
Water/Sweat proof paint
Cosmetic glitter

Baby bumps
Body art
the possibilites are ENDLESS !!

Wow it was a crazy couple of days … I didn’t paint a single face except my own but man did I ever have my hands on a gazillion balloons 😂

Hope everyone has fun elfing tonight !!!! Some of my stuffed balloons went all the way to bridge water for the event ! I was holding my breath until I got the ok they were good 😅

This balloon was actually from last month and

This balloon was actually from last month and I swear a balloon couldn’t look more like Taylor herself if it tried !

They didn’t say which version of Taylor they wanted so I went with this one and thought the shirt was hilarious for a bday … cause there’s always a lot going on .

While I’m here dealing with elf messages might as well show you what I found the other day .

Fb is so funny and hardly ever tells me if I have been tagged so I have to literally stumble across it .

But yet again we have been name TOP three face painters in Halifax !!!!!!

I should look into the balloons side but non of my seos seem to pick up my balloon stuff and even though I’m an AMAZING TWISTER I’m never listed 🤷‍♀️😂

Congratulations to Kcs who I’m pretty positive has been there every year with me and beyond 🥰 and also to Happy Time !!! 🥰

Ok here we go !

Stuffed balloons

Reindeer $40 plus tax
Grinch $45 plus tax
Elf head ( only have one ) $45 plus tax
Extras ( the candy cane , holly berries ) $5 plus tax

Candy cups empty $9.99 plus tax each or 4 for $35 plus tax

I dont think I want to do the filled this year if that’s ok ? Most people just want to add their own stuff anyway .

Elf hot air balloons . $35 plus tax.
These are great when you don’t have time to drop off an elf for me to put in a balloon. Or you can drop off and have me put the elf in if you’re nervous .
These just hang from a place of your choosing, they do not float . These are one of our most popular elf items !

And sometimes people just order a balloon arrangement for the arrival as a fun surprise . Please contact for pricing these as it would depend on what you want and how big etc .

Pick up would be Sunday morning or Sunday night keeping in mind our main road will be closed for a bit if it for the parade . ( if your elf comes on the first that is lol )

Olaf is equally as shocked as I am that the dang elves come back soon ….

And I can not express how much I loath the fact that it’s on a weekend .

Pulling 15 + hour shifts is much easier said on a week day then a weekend 😂

That being said I spent all day cleaning and organizing the office for the event . Have a few more things to do today then I will make a post about my offerings … so stay tuned !

There is a hilarious story that goes with this balloon .

The dad was sent to pick it up . In the dark mind you .

He’s slightly lost but I flagg him down at the end of my drive way holding this giant life size Olaf .

I help him get it into the truck , give the traditional instructions and away he went .

They only live 5 mins away , and pretty instantly I get a message from mom .

Husband just said he picked up a unicorn ???? Just want to make sure we have gotten the right order …..

I am COMPLETELY confused and slightly panicked lol …. There was only one order that went out and it was an Olaf ….

I said I don’t know what hubby is seeing but I sent out a very clear Olaf in my eyes 😅 (starting to doubt my own abilities. 😂)

I got the quick we are all good , he sees the Olaf! but I could not stop giggling the whole night ….

Not over the fact he thought it was a unicorn , but the fact he didn’t even question me on it , just accepted the unicorn and left to figure it out later .

It doesn’t happen often … but I can’t say it’s never … one time a did a baby shower and did the totally wrong gender, it was quickly noticed by the person picking up and we fixed it quick ,

I know I got a number wrong also once lol … but normally I am pretty good … however if you notice anything wrong with any balloon pick ups just let me know , I can fix it pretty quick generally 🤩

Last night while at a party there was the cutest little girl .

She kept calling me something all night long and I wasn’t able to catch it and just rolled with it and did what she told me to do lol

I was called Amber for like a whole 3 years of my life because I was too nervous to tell the person they had it wrong 😂😂 soo ya …

Anyway I thought she was calling me Kyle …. Some times I heard child …

So at the very end she again was saying it and her sister was there and we got her to confirm and it was infact child 😂😂😂 … my two oldest kids aren’t even children anymore , but I will take the compliment even if it’s from a 3 year old .

Same party asked if I played in the nba because I was playing with a basket ball during the service switch over lol … needless to say I loved these kids 🤩🥰

This balloon was from a couple of weeks ago .Always got to love scooby doo !
Wish the brown was a little darker but it was order the night before so had to use what I had on hand .

That was a very long but exciting day !!!

We started off with the Mic Mac event of wake up woody !

Then finished off with some parties .🎉

It’s always sooo cute , almost every single party a kid walks in and says something along the lines of ..

Omg that face painter ….
Eeeek it’s five little monkeys !
Oh my gosh it’s that girl , you know ..
Oh I know you from so and so’s party 🤩
Did you do ( insert event )

Sometimes I work the whole friend group, school group , or even the neighbour hood 😂
I hardly ever advertise and just go on word of mouth or you have seen us somewhere.

But my fav one so far this year was …

I’m happily painting and a dad comes over for small talk .

He says man you must keep some busy with this …

Me , ya it’s not to bad .

He says man… I have seen you at like 4 events …..

I’m thinking 4s a pretty good amount to of seen me at different places , been painting almost 10 years now .… there’s has been soooo many in that time .

Then he’s says …. This week 😂😂

Thank you for keeping me young and my kids fed 🥰🥰🥰

I haven’t checked the tablet yet I know o have some pics from today in there so I will post those soon , but I was tagged in these too so I will give you these for now ❤️

Unfortunately it’s a bit windy today so there will not be a road balloon up ,I’m so sorry .

But still taking the time to thank those that give up everything to serve our country and remembering those now gone 💔

Also to the ship that just came home , I hope you had the biggest breakfast , in pjs with your kids / family or friend . Hugging loved ones you missed all the days you were gone or doing what you love most .❤️

I’m a super sad monkey and can’t even think straight for the past two days.

When I injured my finger the other day I took off 4 of my rings so I could tape my fingers together . I have left them off for a few days so my hand can heal .

They were placed in a safe spot in my office …

I was shocked and panicked when Sunday morning I just found one laying by the back door … ran to where I had them and they were all gone plus an extra one I also had in there .
These rings were oh so very special to me and I’m broken inside not knowing where they are .

In the midst of all this happening our neighbour came down so hubby went to see why .
Hubby comes back in and tells me we have lost one of our sweet neighbours that night ….. again rocked to the core …. They were so young , so sudden …..

Needless to say I’m a wreck right now , sorry 😭

Please send prayers…..

Prayers for the family that are missing their loved one .
She was an amazing person that was always smiling and loving life .
She helped me out a lot when I was knee deep in babies and my other kids still needed to get to school lol .
More importantly she not only introduced me to peanut butter balls but gave me the recipe so I could also make them for loved ones …. Pretty sure it was ONE of her signature desserts however I feel like she had many .
You will truly be missed my dear ❤️

And if we could give a little prayer for St Anthony to help me find the rings that mean so much to me I would also be incredibly grateful …. Because I’m driving myself crazy trying to find them .
It’s not easy going through every millimetre of a house with so many people and things but here I am 😭

We have looked so hard starting to wonder if one of the kids have given them away at school or something .
Because they give everything away 🤦‍♀️
if someone mysteriously finds a gold wedding band , two rings with black stones either white gold or silver (to be honest I never looked )or a very small heart ring that looks like it has been through some stuff , please let me know.

We tied for gold this year 🤩🤩 Congrats to our friends at Kcs for winning platinum❤️ Thank you to all that supported us 🥰...

We tied for gold this year 🤩🤩

Congrats to our friends at Kcs for winning platinum❤️

Thank you to all that supported us 🥰🥰

Hubby is finally home and we are all soo happy but most of all the dog 😂

I know I made it sound like he was on a quick trip but I just did that so people didn’t know we were here by ourselves

The kids out numbered me by far and I was lucky to have survived them 😅

Taking today off to enjoy family so bear with me . I did do a quick run through of all messages before I do though so I’m not leaving anyone hanging .
If I missed you please give a little nudge .

I should have been on messages yesterday but I needed to take a day to decompress .

It undoubtedly was a busy time with it being Halloween and all , but ontop of that , working my own gigs , hubby had to duck out on a work trip real quick so I had to scramble to find drives for Heaven , thank you nanny for being a life saver !!! The kids handled it better than dog ….. whom was beside himself with depression which only a drive to McDonald’s could minimize the pain , cheeseburger is gone so hes back to depressed.

And ontop ontop of all that , I did something to my middle finger Halloween night , no clue exactly, best I can think was I pulled somthing when walking the dog that day 🤔 any way it was killing me pretty bad but wasn’t to worried because I only had painting jobs set for the weekend .

One of Heavens painting jobs wrote me late the night before and asked if they could have a balloon made to go with it , they said they know it’s extremely last minute and I can totally say no if I wanted to .

I’m unsure if I have the inability to say no or my brain is just dumb but I didn’t even THINK about my dang finger when my fingers said “ ya sure no problem “ 😅

Next morning was rough , I went slow but my hand was shaking by the end of it .. but I got it . ( it’s not the balloon pictured this was from the day before Halloween )

Finger is all better now so that is fantastic!
However head is not doing so great with all the rain .

I will be around to message today though . Please bare with me and my sanity right now ❤️😅

However please note ! Christmas bookings have long been rolling in . There is still some bookings left but it is getting narrow . I have a small team but we can only be in so many places at once 🤩

Balloon is Dime Bag Darrel from PANTERA !
