I don’t normally speak in the first person, but sometimes this website can feel a little impersonal. So hello world! My name is Whitney, and I am the proud owner of Colorful Creations.

I got my degree in Interior Design at the NY School of Interior Design (class of 2004!) and over the course of my time there, realized what I really loved about design is how much my clients loved it. I still practice design now and again, but after moving back home to Fairfield in 2007 I started a side-business. (Freelancing can be a tricky thing.) I had already done some face painting over the summers in high school and college, so I figured I’d give it a try.

Well, right when the economy crashed, so did interior design. But, I’m happy to report, people kept throwing awesome birthday parties! I’m not sure if it’s because we were looking for things to celebrate or still want to show our children how much we love them, but my solo face painting venture blossomed.

So, 8 years later, Colorful Creations is now an awesome team of artists. We have face painters, balloon twisters and temporary tattoo artists (and I still sometimes go out to parties myself!) as well as coordinate entertainment with other top-notch companies. (We’ve thoroughly tested them so you know you’re always getting the best.) When you’re looking for birthday party entertainment ideas, we’re Southern CT’s go-to! Even if we don’t offer it, I know plenty of other amazing entertainers who we can make sure make your party perfect.

While I’m not busy working in our shabby-chic office, I love hosting dinner parties at my condo (still in Fairfield!), hiking with my two labs (did you know Fairfield County beaches are open to all animals during the winter?), and am currently learning to bake.

Face Painting Philosophy

My goal is always to provide the best service ever. I know how busy working moms are and how important our children are to us. My promise is always to go above and beyond in how we help you with your party, as well as provide top-notch party entertainment talent ideas.

Just like an interior designer can do everything from concept the execution, that’s the philosophy of my business. With or concierge services and inner-industry knowledge, we will help your party be amazing without taking up your time.

Here are just a few ways we’ve seen adults and teens embrace face paint.

Halloween

Our most frequent requests for adult face paint come during the month of October due to Halloween-themed festivities. In the past, our talented face painters have created elaborate full-face patterns for both adults and teens. Mind-blowingly scary transformations are most popular. Some of our most requested designs include zombies, vampires, clowns, ghosts, and skulls.

Our CT face painters pay close attention to detail and specialize in creating fake blood, popping veins, disgustingly accurate scars, and so much more. Aside from scary face art, we are also capable of creating racier designs that go along perfectly with more seductive Halloween costumes.

Raves and Concerts

Planning a night out with close friends? Glow in the dark and neon face paint go along perfectly with popular nighttime events like concerts and raves. EDM concerts and raves are especially ideal for these sorts of face designs because of their lively atmospheres. It’s often difficult to stand out in these sorts of settings because everyone dresses in eccentric outfits. However, vibrant face paint will surely draw everyone’s eyes to you! Our accomplished face-painting artists will help you embody the perfect alter-ego for an unforgettable night!

Cosplay

Cosplay involves dressing up as a character from a movie, television show, comic book, or video game. There are numerous clubs, gatherings, conventions, and competitions dedicated to cosplayers. Some of our face painters have gotten the opportunity to create designs for people dressing up as superheroes and villains, Game of Thrones characters, and characters from anime.

Sporting Events

Tune into any sporting event and you’ll surely see people in the crowd with full-on face paint! If you and a group of friends want to support your favorite team with impressive face paint, our CT face painters can create unique designs with mascots, logos, or team colors.

Themed Runs

An increasingly popular trend over the past few years has been themed races. In CT, popular events include Zombie-themed runs,St. Patrick’s themed races, and glow-runs. For instance, the Electric Run is a well-known nighttime race involving vibrant colors, clothes, lights, and obstacle courses. At the end of the race, there is a giant celebration filled with music, neon lights, and lasers. Themed-runs are a perfect opportunity to utilize face paint!

The face-painting possibilities are endless! This list only covers a select few face-painting scenarios. If you have a special occasion or event coming up that you think would be perfect for face painting, don’t hesitate to contact our skillfully dedicated face painters!

When most people think of balloon twisting, they tend to associate it with conventional stereotypes like simple, miniature balloon animals. While we do love creating amazingly intricate and fun balloon animals, our CT balloon twisters are capable of creating so much more than that. Balloon twisting is an incredible art form that is not limited to just balloon animals—the possibilities are endless! Our tip to you is simple: think BIGGER!

Balloon sculptures are undoubtedly underrated. They’re impressive, colorful, and will spice up ANY celebratory occasion or gathering. In the past, we’ve created mind-blowing balloon sculptures for weddings, baby showers, birthday parties, holiday celebrations, and grand openings at corporate events.

Hi! I just wanted to thank you guys for helping us plan our grand opening. It was wonderful having you a phone call away! I was so intimidated about doing an event like this, even as a business owner, that you guys were exactly what I needed!

I was so excited that I could not only get face painting through you guys, but the stilt walkers too! The balloons were a hit and the amount of free advertising we got through just customer social media photos was worth the price tag.

Thank you again! I’ll let you guys know when we’re having another event or open house

Superhero Face Paint

Superman, Batman, Ironman—we can do them all! If your son or daughter is obsessed with superheroes like the Hulk, Captain America, and Spiderman, we can transform your child and his or her friends into the superheroes of their choice. We are able to do anything from superhero masks to elaborate, full-face designs.

Animal face paint is undoubtedly a cute face painting idea and an absolute crowd-pleaser. Some of our most requested designs include cats, tigers, zebras, and butterflies!

Hi [agent’s name]! Thanks SO Much for all your help with [child]’s birthday! I’m so happy we went with the big princess package. Once we started adding up the total of everything else we wanted, it made way more sense to go with this than a bounce house plus cotton candy plus etc etc etc….

And you were right! It was amazing. The look on [child]’s face when the princesses streamed through the front door was incredible! Even the adults had their jaws dropping! I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many parents whip out cameras at once!!!!

It was the single most magical experience of her life. When [the little mermaid] left with all her friends, [child] gave her a big hug, even with a few tears on her face! She didn’t want them to leave!

I just can’t thank you enough for helping me organize our party. You guys are worth every penny, and I truly truly thank you for all your extra patience with me. I’ve never thrown a birthday party on this size and it was beyond perfect.
