A huge thank you to Blue Lake Holiday Park BIG4 for having me come in to face paint for their guests over the Christmas period 🎄✨
It was such a pleasure bringing colour, sparkles and smiles to so many wonderful kids and families staying at the park. Seeing all the excited faces truly made my heart very full.
I’m so grateful for the opportunity, for the lovely welcoming team, and for supporting my small local business, Face Paint by Danielle Malseed 💖🎨
Hope everyone had an amazing Christmas and holiday season!

✨THANK YOU for an unforgettable celebration✨

What an absolutely magical afternoon celebrating one year of takeover at Gambier Pet & Aquarium.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, brought their little humans, shared smiles, cuddles, curiosity and excitement, the joy in the room was something really special. Seeing so many happy faces, sparkles, giggles and brave animal encounters made the day one to remember 🥰

Thank you to Gambier Pet & Aquarium Centre for having me be part of such a beautiful milestone, and to Little Animal Encounters for bringing the magic and thanks to this tiny little artist, for her added bling upgrading my designs into pure magic, those moments were absolutely wonderful. ✨🦜🐍

I feel incredibly grateful to do what I do and to be part of a community that celebrates local businesses, families and connection. Thank you for the love, the laughs and the trust, my heart is very full 💫

Also a special thank you to this guys for letting me get up and personal with one of his amazing giants, she is stunning.

Until next time 💖🧚‍♀️✨
