Smiley Cats face painters have over 15 years experience and our fantastic faces are of the highest standard. We use the latest designs and materials to assure you of a fabulous result for your children.

We offer a number of designs, from beautiful princesses and butterflies to green monsters and ferocious tigers, all of which can be tailored to the child’s imagination.

Face painting is fun for everyone, for the person being painted, the artist and for people who watch the work being done and see the end results. It brings a colourful lift to any party or gathering, private or corporate.

How would you like to have a glittery, shimmery, multicoloured temporary tattoo which is painless when applied and will last up to 7 days? You can choose out of a range of designs with many different coloured glitters.

Our Glitter Tattoos are waterproof, but can simply be removed by using baby oil and are great to put a sparkle to any party.

We have a huge variety of different colour nail art pens. The kids can choose a base coat followed by a design which we apply with the nail pens and then finish with a clear protective coat.

This activity is very popular with teenage girls. While waiting for the coats to dry they can either have some fun with the karaoke machine or choose to do one of our other activities, like t-shirt design or jewellery making.

Hair wraps, also called hair braiding, is where we wrap three or four colours of shiny cotton around a small section of hair, finishing it with colourful beads.

The wrap can last up to three or four months and we provide a ‘How to take care of your hair wrap’ leaflet. Very popular and all for the fraction of the price you pay abroad!

Want a tattoo without the commitment? Try an airbrush tattoo! It looks just like the real thing, but without pain and is not permanent. The tattoos are applied in a couple of minutes, and last 3-7 days. They're great for parties or special events or just to have some fun! You can have your design in black or colour.

T-shirt design is one of our most popular activities.

We supply a t-shirt for each child, (sizes vary between 1-2 yrs old to XL) and the children can design and paint their own t-shirt. The materials used are machine washable so they can wear their work of art over and over again. A real hit with any age!

From a small workshop at a school, fete or Girl Guides group to a full weekend corporate event for 500 to 600 children. We offer a number of different art activities. Material design on t-shirts, pencil cases or bags, making placemats with mosaic/puppets, hats and seasonal cards/ making masks or jewellery and many, many more craft activities.

We supply all the materials and tools to be able to make a brilliant piece of art to either wear, take home or to make for a special occasion. Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, Father or Mother's day, Christmas, Easter, etc.
We can make the artwork fit your chosen theme.
