What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?
To provide a quote we need the event date, start/end times and location. We also need to know the type of event it will be, whether it will be indoors or outdoors and how many guests are expected. If it's for a private birthday party, the age of the birthday person would also be helpful. We will then be able to provide an accurate quote based on your needs.
What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
There are many varying standards of face painters from, newbies and hobbyists through to professionals. It's important to know who you are booking and what they are offering.
Professionals such as AngelArt, have years of experience and can offer hundreds of design choices, good painting speeds if high numbers of clients are to be painted and are fun, friendly and reliable. Experience doesn't just count for the standard of painting. It counts for customer service, being able to deal with all age ranges, being flexible and adaptable when it's called for and knowing how to close busy queues without upsetting everyone.
Please take a look at the artwork being provided and verify that the work is consistent and not copied from others on the internet. Ensure that the painter has public liability insurance and uses cosmetic paints that wash off easily with soap and water. Do not choose a painter who uses acrylics, they are not skin safe. Good hygiene practice is a must. Clean water, clean kit, clean sponges and not leaving brushes to sit in dirty water are all things to look out for.
Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.
I first experienced face painting, as a volunteer parent, fundraising on behalf of P.T.F.A at my son's school. While other mums did 20-minute stints, I was there all day, I loved it! More and more, I was asked if I did parties and so my wonderful little business started.
I have always had a creative side and enjoy sketching, painting, cross-stitching, sugarcraft, up-cycling, and more, so being able to get creative on someone's face or body is a blessing. I love to meet new people of all ages but have a particular soft spot for the little ones. The thrill of excited reactions to the new creation on their faces is why I do this for a living. I love my work, I love to spread colour and sparkle and joy!
Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?
I have had a number of booking through Add to Event and some great reviews! It's a great way to find the right person for your event. Being able to find numerous suppliers all in one place is ideal and time saving while being able track conversations and leave reviews is great. It's helpful to me as a supplier as I can quickly tell if I have availability for an event and if i can help a potential customer.
