As some of you may know - my dad sadly passed away suddenly two weeks ago. I also lost my mum 18 months ago and so recently I have been reevaluating things.

I have decided that I will be taking a break from Emma's Fanciful Faces for the foreseeable future as I want to prioritise spending weekends with my family.

I have contacted everyone with an upcoming booking, but I won't be taking any more bookings.

Thank you all for your support - I've not decided if I will stop forever or if it will just be a hiatus - but its goodbye, for now ❤️

Another fab party painting with the awesome Magic Iain this morning, and then this afternoon I took my kids to a party as 'mum' and guess who was the entertainment there?!... Magic Iain again! 😂

The kids and parents love him - both really chill, relaxed parties, with the kids in stitches and happy faces all round! 😍

Check out these awesome photos a lovely mum sent me from the party today!

That 'mirror moment' is the reason I love face painting - seeing that 'WOW' face and a big smile just makes my day!!

Happy May 4th!!

How cute does little Saxon look with his birthday balloon?! 😍

Cute leopard at today's birthday party! 😍

Random question - has anyone seen that new Lewis Capaldi doc on Netflix?

At one point Lewis talks about his imposter syndrome - this totally resonated with me. Its obviously a totally different situation, but I have always had major imposter syndrome about my face painting.

I've been face painting for over 5 years now, and yet I still think of myself as not good enough. I set myself a challenge today to try an Elodie Ternois Easter design I'd seen, and for once I am so so happy with how it came out! 😍

🐟"When we see the undertow we say.." 🐟
This photo was taken before I personalised the foil number, I just couldn't wait to take a pic - so cute! 😍

Yayyy the Easter holidays are here!!
Already completed our first Easter trail today ✅ (first of many no doubt!)
Lots of parties booked in over the Easter holidays - looking forward to seeing you all!

Lovely party this afternoon for two adorable twin girls who were turning five - as well as having my gold package (face painting and balloon models) they also had one of my giant number balloons! 😍 It looked amazing up on the stage!!

What is a whistle stick?
If you attend one of my parties which has either my gold or platinum packages, you will know I love an interactive balloon! Along with standard favourites like animals, flowers and swords I try to put some bows and arrows in the selection, and also a couple of these whistle sticks! Super fun (and NOISY!)

25/03/2023

Fab party this afternoon with the very lovely Kieran's Discos at for Nina's 6th birthday party!
Nina had my platinum package which was face painting, glitter tattoos and balloons!

You get back from swimming and your mum immediately asks you to pose in an inflatable spaceship/rocket 😂
I got a bit carried away with the space theme yesterday and so just kept going! 😂😂

16/03/2023

... And alien belly buddies filled with chocolate coins inside the belly balloon! 😍

16/03/2023

Space themed centrepiece I made today!

02/03/2023

I looove World Book Day!! No balloon costumes this year (see pics for last year's!) but I still got to get out the face paints and I crocheted my daughter's gloves and vinyled her t-shirt! I don't know who was more excited - me or them! 😂

20/02/2023

Lots of fun making a Monsters Inc balloon for Roman! I wanted to make it look like Mike was going to give the birthday boy a great big hug, so I'm super happy how it came out! 😍

Smaller party? No problem!

I love a small party - people sometimes worry that we wouldn't be able to fill the two hours but smaller parties really give me the time to put a little extra into the party! I can add more details in the face paints, I can paint arms too with things like rainbow bracelets, graffiti arms (I did a Harry Potter graffiti arm and a Batman one today that were big hits!) and also of course time to paint the grown ups who secretly always love getting involved!

Also for the smaller parties that book my packages which include balloons - it gives me more time to make the more interactive balloons, like bows and arrows, flying mice and whistle sticks, which are always huge hits!

So if you have a party big or small coming up - don't hestitate to contact me!

❤️Happy Valentine's day! ❤️
I hope you've been spoiled and have managed to get out to enjoy the lovely weather today - spring is definitely on the way!! 😍

08/02/2023

Suuuuper quick Valentine's frog on my little prince! 😍

07/02/2023

A flamingo design - I've been looking at Valentine's themed designs and we picked out a nice pink flamingo - not strictly Valentine's in the end I suppose, but she LOVED it!

05/02/2023

There aren't many things I haven't face painted - I've even painted a combine harvester! 😂 But I realised today that I've never done a space themed face paint - so here you go!! 😍🪐⭐🪐

01/02/2023

Spiderguy from the weekend! 😍

It's not every party I get picked up by Spiderman!! 😂😂🙈

Great party with Ash-Lee Entertainment today, check out my stories for a video of Iron Man dancing and Spiderman doing a back flip routine too! 😮🙈

Brilliant party this afternoon with face painting and glitter tattoos!
My glitter tattoo kit was looking so pretty I had to take a pic - you can never have too much glitter! 😍😍

27/01/2023

🌟ITS NEARLY THE WEEKEND!! 🌟
I'm so excited!! Also here are some photos of me - just so you know the face behind the name! I think its important to know WHO you are booking as well as what I can do, so here are a few facts about me!

I'm Emma - I have two kids, a girl aged 9 and a boy who is 6!
I live in Mistley near Manningtree and I work part time during the week at a local accountants!
I love the Walking Dead, the American Office and Better Call Saul!
Most memorable moment as a face painter - being featured by Look East!

27/01/2023

I've been making eight Hei Hei balloon headbands today! 😍 Standard day at the Fanciful Faces office! 😂😂

26/01/2023

Wow the bookings are really coming in - thank you!

March and April are filling up FAST - February has some spaces left but get in quick!

Please note - best way to contact me is either on here or via whatsapp/text - its very difficult for me to answer/return phone calls as I have an office job during the week so can't answer my phone 🙈 always best to follow up with a message so I can check my calendar/availability!

Please note if you have a booking query that I will need to know the following info:
Location
Number of children
Date
Thank you so much!

Awesome party this morning to celebrate Archie's 5th birthday! There was even time for some arm paints at the end - quick spiderman arms, batman wristbands and rainbow flower arms all round!

AMAZING party in Dedham today, 30 friends gathered to celebrate Rosie and Izzy's 6th birthday! Face paints and glitter tattoos all round so I was non stop - thanks to a mum at the party for sending me these pics, my fox design was definitely the most popular of the day! 🦊❤️

06/11/2022

Such a fab party this weekend to celebrate Jacob's 4th birthday! Looots of batman designs and unicorns, and of course some adults getting involved too - one who had never had their face painted before and of course got one of my 'my first face paint' stickers too! 😍

22/10/2022

What a fabulous party today! Lots of grown ups and children painted! Several first time face paints (see if you can spot them with their special 'my first face paint' sticker in my pics!), loved it - thanks for having me!

21/10/2022

I was having a look through for my favourite self paints, laughing remembering how many times I'd just paint myself and then need to answer the door to the postman or Tescos 😂🙈

09/10/2022

A rare day off today so we spent a lovely morning pumpkin picking with my family! 🎃
Thank you for the tickets - we loved it!
