Is this venue accessible?
The main event space is accessible by ramp, so guests can enter and participate in the painting event without using stairs. The entrance to the event space is wheelchair accessible.
Please note that the bathrooms are located downstairs and are only accessible by stairs. Unfortunately, there is no accessible bathroom on the main floor.
We’re happy to assist guests where we can. However, due to the historic nature of the building, accessibility is limited to the areas noted above.

PSSSSTTT
I also offer private events that can be customized to fit your group’s needs—whether it’s a birthday celebration, bachelorette party, team-building activity, or just a fun night in with friends. I bring all the supplies and guide everyone step-by-step, so no painting experience is required. Each private event is designed to be creative, relaxed, and memorable, giving your group a unique way to connect and take home artwork you’ll be proud of.

Guyssss… cold and flu season is officially in FULL EFFECT and I am crashing out. 😂

The house isn’t clean. The kids are absolutely feral. There’s p*e on the toilet seat. I have no idea what’s for dinner. The laundry is somehow multiplying. And apparently, “sleeping in” means anything past 5:30 AM because my son has decided that is the appropriate time to start the day. 😭

And then there’s the business…

Emails need answering. Invoices need sending. Eventbrite needs updating. Supplies need shopping for. Paint needs organizing. Events need planning. Social media needs posting. People need replies. There are venues to contact, decorations to make, and approximately 47 things I’m convinced I’m forgetting. 😂

All while trying to be a present mom, keep my house somewhat functioning, make sure everyone is fed, remember school schedules, and somehow find five minutes to myself.

Being a small business owner and a mom means there really isn’t an “off” switch. There’s no calling in sick because you have a business to run, and there’s definitely no clocking out when your four-year-old still needs you.

Some days I feel like I’m absolutely crushing it.

Other days I’m standing in the kitchen at 8 PM, surrounded by dirty dishes, wondering what happened to the day and questioning whether cereal counts as dinner. 😂

And honestly? I think a LOT of us are in the same boat right now.

So if your house is a mess, your kids are wild, you forgot something important, dinner is questionable, and you’re just trying to keep all the plates spinning…

Same. 🙋‍♀️

At least my wonderful partner is always there to give me a hug and tell me it’s gonna be ok. Plasma Electrical Services

If only clean up could be this quick! 🤔

Happy 4th Birthday to my amazing son, Sullivan! 🥹💙

On September 29th at 7:08 PM, you decided you were DONE waiting and made your grand entrance way too quickly. 😂

I had to take an ambulance to the hospital, and you didn’t even give me enough time for an epidural… or a hospital gown! 😂

Four years later, I still can’t believe how quickly those years have gone. You have brought more love, laughter, chaos, adventure, and magic into my life than I ever could have imagined.

Watching you grow into the funny, sweet, curious little boy you are has been the greatest adventure of my life. 🥹

Happy Birthday, Sully. 💙
I love you more than you’ll ever know. 🥰

Fairy House Decorating is honestly one of my favourite events to put together. 🧚‍♀️✨

There’s SO much work that goes on behind the scenes to make these events special. From shopping for all the cute little treasures (yes, lots of scrolling through Temu 😂), to making sure I restock the popular items that disappear quickly, to organizing everything so you can easily find exactly what you’re looking for when you’re creating.

I spend a lot of time thinking about the little details — what kids will love, what will inspire their creativity, and how I can give everyone lots of different options to make their fairy house or door completely their own. 🌸🍄✨

It’s definitely a lot of work, but seeing everyone get excited, dig through all the little treasures and create something that’s uniquely theirs makes every bit of it worth it. 💕

🍂 Fall Family Craft Night at IKEA Halifax 🎨
Join Coastal Pigments for a fun and relaxed evening of fall crafting with your little one! 🍁
This family-friendly event is designed for babies, toddlers, and children—and gives you the chance to get creative together while making something you can take home and treasure.
🎨 What to Expect
We’ll have a craft table set up with a variety of supplies for families to create together. You can:
🍂 Make a special craft using your child’s handprint or footprint
🎨 Create your own fall-inspired artwork
🖌️ Let your little one get creative and make something completely their own
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Spend some quality creative time together
Not sure what to make? No worries! There will be plenty of inspiration and supplies available to help get those creative ideas flowing.
🧼 And Yes… We Handle the Cleanup!
We’ll have a dedicated cleanup station with water, baby wipes, and paper towels to help clean up those messy little hands and feet.
And the best part? Coastal Pigments handles the cleanup afterward! 🙌
🍴 Make an Evening of It!
After crafting, stick around and enjoy a bite or beverage at the IKEA restaurant. It’s a great opportunity to socialize with other families and enjoy a relaxed evening together.
📅 Wednesday, October 7th, 2026

POV: You run a mobile art business… 🎨📦

This is the part of Coastal Pigments you don’t always see. 😂

Before the paint nights, crafts, laughter and finished masterpieces, there’s a LOT of packing, organizing, lifting, loading and somehow fitting everything into my vehicle.

Paint, canvases, easels, brushes, tables, supplies… you name it. If it’s needed for an event, I’m probably hauling it. 😅

It’s definitely not the glamorous side of owning a business, but honestly? I wouldn’t trade it.

The art studio on the go doesn’t set itself up! 😉🎨
