About Me

My name is Carolyn and I am the owner of Rainbows & Wildflowers Creations.

After years of face painting on a volunteer basis and with party companies, I decided to take the leap and build my own business in 2023.

I love adding color to events and bringing smiles to the faces of kids and grown-ups alike! See my FAQ's below to learn a little more about Rainbows & Wildflowers Creations.

What paints do you use?

I only use approved, water-based paints from trusted companies such as Fusion, Diamond FX, Kraze FX, and Superstar. These paints are proven to be skin safe, are easily washed off with soap and water, and have minimal chance of causing a reaction. If you are concerned that the paint may cause a reaction, I am happy to do a test swatch! Most importantly, I NEVER use acrylic paints. While these may be advertised as non-toxic, they are not skin safe and can cause chemical burns and other damaging reactions.
Why hire an insured face painter?

Holding face painting insurance protects my supplies, but it also shows that I have a dedication to safe, reliable, and healthy practices.
Can I request designs that match my theme?

Of course! So long as I have more than 48 hours notice, I am happy to create 1-3 customized designs for your event (if I don't already have some!). These are offered in addition to my current face paint designs at your event.
What is "Pay-per-Face" face painting?

Pay-per-Face events are when I attend the event and guests can choose designs at a $5 or $10 tier and pay me directly. This allows events to offer face painting without any cost to them.
Will you face paint for free?

Unfortunately, I am limited in the number of events I can do for free each year, due to the cost of supplies and demands on my time. However, if you are hosting a fundraising event I am happy to work with you on an hourly rate that works for your organization, or offer pay-per-face and contribute a portion of the proceeds to the cause.
How do you ensure health and safety?

When I am painting, every brush or sponge is dipped in paint once, and discarded or washed immediately after it touches the client's skin. No double dipping here! Brushes are washed in a three pot system (soap and water, water rinse, and rubbing alcohol sanitization) on the job, and are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized between each event/party. I keep hand sanitizer within easy reach so that I may use it often. I am also happy to wear a mask if the client requests it.
Can I have my infant/toddler painted?

While I love to make children of all ages smile, unfortunately I cannot paint children under 3 years of age. This is because my insurance does not cover children under 3, and children's skin is particularly sensitive before this age. It is also difficult for very young children to sit still enough to paint and understand what is happening, which is a less than ideal situation for both the painter and the child.
What is your booking policy?

Bookings can be requested using the form here or via email. Kindly note that bookings are not finalized until it is confirmed by the client and myself, Carolyn Greenwood. A $25 non-refundable booking fee is required within 7 days of confirmation to finalize booking of the event. This amount will be deducted from your final balance due. You can learn more about my booking policies in the document below:
What is your reschedule policy?

Things happen! If you need to reschedule your event, I am happy to work with you to find a new date and time that works for you myself. Your $25 non-refundable booking fee can be applied to the new date/time, and any payment made will be applied to the new balance due. I kindly request notice of the need to reschedule ASAP. You can find more details about my rescheduling policy in the document below:
What is your cancellation policy?

I will accept cancellations and waive the total balance due (minus the $25 non-refundable booking fee) up to 48 hours before the start of the event. Cancellations made within 24-48 hours of the event will be subject to being billed for 75% of the final balance due. If you choose to reschedule your event, the $25 non-refundable booking fee can be applied to the new date agreed upon by the client and service provider. Your balance due will be applied to the new date, and is subject to adjustments based on the event length and number of painters required. If you need to reschedule, we kindly request notice ASAP (minimum 24 hours). You can see more details about my policies here: .
What do I need to supply?

I kindly request a 4-8 ft table or area where I can paint, and chairs/a bench if possible. If these things cannot be provided, please let me know and I will arrange to bring my own. If you are having a private party, shade would be lovely! If it is a larger outdoor event, please let me know if you'd like me to bring my tent. I will bring my own paints, water, and other supplies! More details can be found in my policies here:
How do I pay for your services?

I accept payment via Venmo (@rainbows_and_wildflowers_2023), PayPal (@rainbowswildflowers), by check, or using the link on the electronic invoice you will be sent. If you wish to pay the remainder of your balance due in cash at the time of the event, kindly arrange this with me, in writing, and have the payment ready at the beginning of the event. Services cannot begin until payment is received. More details about payment policies can be found in the document below:
