4 Questions with Fun Faces

Tell us about your business.
We provide fun and whimsical face and body paint for all kinds of events big and small. We also twist balloons into all the fun designs you can imagine. We have glitter tattoos and festival hair as well!

What inspired you to start your business?
I started my business at 15 after I was part of a clown drama during a summer missions trip to serve and minister to inner-city kids throughout the Midwest. I loved how making balloons or painting faces opened up opportunities to make kids and adults alike feel special and share God’s love with them.

What is your favorite part about festivals?
I love meeting all the new people and seeing the same families year after year as the kids grow. It’s a great way to connect with the whole community!

What is your favorite festival food?
My whole family loves snow cones/shaved ice and funnel cake.
