Ever since I shared my face painting kit tour, I’ve had so many messages asking where my case is from. The funny thing is... I actually „borrowed” it from my parents’ house!

It’s a toolbox (although my parents always used it for picnics rather than tools), I noticed it had so much potential and with a few simple modifications, it turned into the perfect face painting case. I removed the internal panel, added baking trays, glued magnets to the bottom of my paint pots, and made the adjustable dividers work for my setup.
I love finding affordable alternatives because face painting cases can be so expensive, and sometimes the best solutions are the ones you already have at home.
I did a bit of research and found a very similar (if not the exact same) toolbox online, so I’ve added the link below for everyone who’s been asking! 👇

One of my favourite face painting money-saving hacks! 🎨✨

These baby bath sponges cost just 49p for a pack of two, and with a few cuts, they become 16 face painting sponges.

I simply cut each round sponge into 8 wedges, which are perfect for applying base colours, rainbows, butterflies, superheroes, and all those designs that need smooth coverage.

The best part? They’re reusable. After an event, I place them in a mesh laundry bag and wash them on a gentle cycle using sensitive laundry detergent. Once dry, they’re ready to be used again.

Professional face painting sponges definitely have their place, but if you’re just starting out, painting at busy events, or looking to reduce your supply costs, this is a simple and affordable alternative that works really well.

Sometimes the best business tips are the simplest ones!

We absolutely appreciate every tag, share, and recommendation, they help small businesses grow and reach new customers.

However, exposure isn’t a payment method.

Behind every balloon display is time, planning, design work, materials, equipment, travel, experience, and years spent building a business. Just like any other professional service, those costs are very real and can’t be covered with social media mentions alone.

We’re always grateful for the exposure that comes naturally from creating great work, but exposure is a bonus not a substitute for paying a small business for its time, skills, and services.

Supporting small businesses means valuing their work, and that starts with fair payment. 🎈
