I love it when I am face painting at a party and I can leave everyone with a smile! 😁

For those who haven't experienced my face painting, I use an alcohol hybrid body paint. It is sweat- and water-resistant, so it won't melt in the heat! The paint is dry before you leave the chair and it won't smudge. (It comes off easily with soap, though. Just break up the paint with liquid soap and wipe off with a warm, wet washcloth.)

My July is almost already jam packed! If you are planning an August or September event and would like me there, please call now!

If you were planning to come see me and Liv in Valpo tonight for a balloon and a face paint, I'm afraid this crazy weather is keeping us apart again!

Put this movie night back in your calendar July 9, when Balloontacular Entertainment will be at Central Park again to provide you with NWI's favorite balloon twisting and airbrush face painting duo!

What a week at Schererville Fest! 2024 Fest was fantastic and I met some of the greatest people. ❤️ Looking forward to 2025!

So balloons might be my first love, but airbrush face and body painting makes me so incredibly happy. Always new designs to come up with and techniques to learn. ❤️

Come out to Schererville Fest Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to see me!

When your favorite character stops in during Schererville Fest to get painted as his favorite character. 😆Here's to Andrew Spencer the Hero in a Halfshell! (Of course he wanted to be the funny one!)

Everyone, may I present yet again, my favorite hallway to decorate! It was Tea Time at the Schererville Community Center and they asked me if I could make some balloons for the entryway.

22/04/2024

What a great weekend!! Birthday parties, a school carnival, and a city event! That means face painting, balloons, and lots & lots of smiles. 🩷

The Mandalorian decided he preferred my balloon sword that makes noise when you wave it. (It really does! It goes "whum whum whum” when you wave it! Gotta love balloon physics! 😆) So he traded me for his dark saber! It was wonderful day at HealthLinc in Michigan City Give Kids a Smile!

Do you know what they call a group of balloon twisters together? Sleep deprived!!😜 My peeps, I have been at the 2024 Twist & Shout Balloon Twister Convention learning all kinds of new things and ready to take on my 2024 events. I can't wait to see you all!

Owning your own business = Always an adventure!

And what do I do when things get stressful? I watch Bluey! (No, really, I do. 😆) It's so wholesome and happy.

Gonna be a busy week of twisting balloons, followed by an even busier week! Everyone find your happy and take care of yourselves out there!

TL;DR: I wasn't receiving any email from Google email contacts. And I didn't notice. I am so very sorry, I promise I wasn't ignoring your emails. Here is an apology beagle.

So....you know how you go to one of your email boxes that was linked to your main business email...and you find out it isn't any longer? And for the PAST YEAR (maybe longer) anyone who has contacted you via Google thinks you have ignored their emails. 🤦🏼‍♀️Yeah. That's me today.

I've answered as many as I could from the past 6 months. (The ones who didn't follow up with phone calls or texts.) But if you've emailed me and never heard from me, I apologize from the bottom of my heart. I've not ignored you, I just missed a clicked box (a very crucial clicked box). I promise to do better.

Here is an apology beagle.

Sometimes you just need to be a sparkly butterfly!

My airbrush face painting is quick and long-lasting. I use an alcohol hybrid paint that is water-/sweat- resistant and won't smudge! (But easy to remove with a little soap and a wet washcloth.) Faces won't melt in the summer heat and won't smear off in the bounce house!

If you have a scouts group looking for something fun and different to do, ask me about teaching a class! I'm happy to teach your small group how to twist some simple balloons.

17/02/2024

Let's see...how about some photos from a Barbie Beach Party/Ken's Surf Party? (And no, I don't generally do decor anymore, but I will for Schererville Parks & Recreation!

My location turns out to be almost completely hidden this year. If you are at NWICC, I'm here, I'm here! I'm just at the back between the stage/cosplay registration table and Tavern on Main. I'm here until 5pm. Tickets are $12 at the door and my prices are $5, $10, and $13 for face paint.

It's that time of year again!!
