Can't believe it was 5 years ago I got a late night call to paint for a music video early the next morning.
Did I take pics, did I find out what video, did I ask what the tune was called, did I ask who was producing.....and that in a nutshell is why I'm so diabolically bad at media content πŸ€”πŸ˜±πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€£

How many times do I hear 'painting's just for kids, I'm too old, adults don't get painted...."
I think it's safe to say, from the very first picture below, it's most definitely not just for kids and you biggies can have an absolute blast when let loose with the kit. Yes some maybe influenced by a tipple or ten, but you are most certainly never too old ️🎨

We have so many adult party bookings with the glitter bar, corporate staff do's, hen parties, getting you festival ready gigs. Lots of these start late afternoon, early evening so they fall after our normal kiddies party times.
Even more reason for you to book....kids have had their fun, now it's time for you to getcha sparkle on βœ¨οΈπŸ’ƒπŸ•Ί

All hail to our accountant! Sent 8pm Thursday night and turned the figures around by 11am Friday morning πŸ’ͺπŸ‘ŠπŸ™
Did make me check back over some records and was really surprised how many corporate clients I've painted for over the past couple of years.
Hugely grateful my little business is doing OK and beyond thankful as so many of these, along with you fabulous private clients, now book me each year ✨️
Definitely a reason to keep pushin' on πŸ₯°

Where has that month gone, holy moly!!!
Still had parties, including our boys 21st (not a face paint in sight πŸ˜‚). But also had a few corporate meetings and a bit of a heads together, throwing ideas around, how, where and when to move forward....and it's my nemesis! I hardly take any photos, never take content, not a scooby how to do reels and that canva style malarkey and looks like I've got to really get to grips with it. I'll definitely be calling on all my lot that are way more tech minded than me. Lordy I've deleted the Ringo app 3 times without knowing πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€£

Super busy first party today. Had to lose a bit of detail as the queue was growing. Birthday boy was definitely all about The Hammers ⚽️

Anyways, I've got bookings through til Christmas you fabulous bunch, so if you've a date in mind ping it through and I'll get you in the diary ✨️️🎨

Whilst the red heaters under the seating area at The Foresters Arms were amazing in the cold wind....not so good for seeing what I was painting or the colours in the kit πŸ™ˆ....warm hands, glowing cheeks, dodgy line work, can't have it all πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€£
Quick butterfly done at a super busy party.
On to the very last booking of 2024 tomorrow at Vault in Shenfield x

Well that didn't quite work out as planned πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€£
Snippets of videos, handful of pictures, crazy busy events and parties and wicked flu thrown in the mix.
Will sort some editing out and share where we've been but inbetween travelling round Essex, Herts and getting royally lost on trains to London, coughing like I'm on 80 a day and attempting to keep up with paperwork....tis' a bit bonkers to say the least xx

First Christmas event today for Fiserv in Basildon. So much going on there but no chance to wander...normal face painting queue commenced before anything else 😱
Fab to be asked back after providing painting, glitter and gems at their adult FiFest in the summer. The lovely Rhona came to help again as well, it's a definite 2 painter job for this corporate client.
And if we painted 5 christmas designs between us I'll be shocked. Unicorns, butterflies, spiderman, cats yes, christmas not so much πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€£

6 weeks have gone by in a blur! After the busiest Halloween to date, I knew a bit of a reset was needed before the craziness of Christmas commenced. Social was the easiest option so bit of radio silence...but that didn't mean there wasn't any painting happening ✨️
So along with parties I've had 3 masterclass sessions with Debut Academy, teaching their level one students specific skills for a media makeup/paint look ready for a photoshoot.
Absolutely fully booked, literally not even an hour slot free now before Christmas, with birthdays, pubs, clubs, schools, light ups, events, corporate gigs and office parties 🎨. I've even had to do a print out for the lot indoors so they know where I am each day πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‚....and that's without some fabulous painters also covering overspill gigs.
Going to try really hard to get some content in the next month, to share some of the amazing locations we are booked to paint and glitter at.
Tomorrow is Christmas bling making day. That translates to me sitting at the table, surrounded by gems and embellishments, using some colourful vocabulary when I'm stuck in a right mess with medical double sided tape πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ
Now you're all up to date on what's been going on and what's coming up, bring on the sparkles ✨️🎨

Yesterday I had the absolute pleasure of painting on Tropical Lagoon ward at Queens hospital. I try to support Clowns In The Sky charity whenever I can and this was part of the play in health care week.
This Saturday I'll be supporting another charity, St Francis Hospice. The hospice were beyond amazing for my mum, so I'm already guessing it's going to be a bit emotional (q red, blotchy face painter in the corner) but to be able to support them when I can is also on my to do list.
Only there until 1pm so pop down if you're local, lots going on πŸ₯°

Last weekend was a quieter one, probably the quietest since April. It also gave me a chance to swap brushes and do some much needed painting indoors!
3 birthdays and a nursery open day 🀩
Shout out to Krazy Kidz Cafe in Ongar. Brilliant soft play, super staff and always host fab parties. Tiny Treasures Day Nursery in Brentwood had an incredible response from their open day. No surprise as the facilities and staff were top notch. And finished with a party, with a stressed mumma who was worried everything wouldn't be right and she absolutely smashed it πŸ‘ŒπŸ₯°
Got a busy weekend coming up so drop a message to check the last few slots for 2024 xx

Reckless run a tight ship, awesome nights, tunes are banging and great crowds from about 4 different uni's. As for Infinity....princesses, mascots, entertainers, dj's, musicians, singers, dancers....talented little bunch that they are πŸ‘ŒπŸ€©

Super weekend of parties and 2nd of 4 freshers uv gigs (thank you to Claire for covering Witham Carnival to πŸ™πŸŽ¨).
Have to say waddling out of clubs at 2am, covered in uv paint splodges, was not something I thought would be happening 9 years ago when I started Bugz πŸ’«
Our uv paints are all FDA approved (as are all our products) and are brilliant for glow parties. And yes we have some amazing entertainers that offer music and games for a range of ages with that theme.
Come getcha glow on with Bugz x

Very rarely do I get caught on camera, either working or posing (my smile is a grimacy snarl....really don't do photos πŸ€ͺ🫣)
But the thing that's made me smile most about these throwbacks from working on set....

My hair has grown about 8 inches πŸ™ŒπŸ€£
Those that know me know how ridiculously slow my hair grows, so my excitement at seeing the difference in length, I'm actually allowed to share a me in the pic pic 🎨
