Joker Princess lol Wow...
My kids have gone to birthday parties with my husband while I am off at a job. They will come home with stories about bad face painters. my 7 & 11yr old. Kids know when it's bad. Well our kids know for sure but These bad painters must not like what they do because kids are honest and They must get Complaints from those picky kids all the time. Its really sad. This is also the reason I tried painting. It was too expensive for me to hire a "good" painter & i figured I could do at least if not better than the other painters. That poopie puppy and peace face are something else tho. Thanks for the laughs. lol

I know, right. Scary really. Always horrifying when they publish a shocking pic in the local newspaper with no credit, and people ask if it's mine. I'm with you lollyjean, feeling so much better

Oh goodness! I've heard some parents say they've seen some pretty bad work at event where there is free face painting. I saved a McDonalds restaurant from embarrassing themselves by volunteering to face paint on McHappy day. One of their staff members started doing it before I got there and their cheek butterfly looked liked someone spat their M&M McFlurry on their face.

I can recall a lion I did at my very first party.I did it for free for a friend and a little boy asked for a lion. I was trying to convince him to allow me to paint a tiger but he insisted on a lion. I had not practiced it before or even looked at pictures of faces painted as a lion, so I made it up on the spot. Once I find a picture I'll post it up hehe

LOL! Yes, if my child had a spider on his nose I'd splat it flat just like this one.

Just for fun, to resurrect a favorite thread. I found this while searching out face painting at wrestling expos.

There are a couple of others in the article.

That has got to be "homemade" face paint?
