Face Painting at the Ceiriog Valley Carnival

It was the Ceiriog Valley Carnival last Saturday and, for a change, I made it there. It was a freezing cold day (not to mention the rain) but Katryn and I enjoyed the couple of hours we spent there. Katryn opted to have her face painted as a spotty dog although I’m fairly sure that the decision was made more to prove me wrong than anything. I was sure that she’d choose the beautiful butterfly.

Here it is in all of it’s glory…

 

I do find the tongue a little creepy I have to say!

Face painting at Drayton Manor Park

On Thursday, 11th August, Sarah, Katryn and I enjoyed a fun packed day at Drayton Manor Park in Tamworth. It was a brilliant day out and I took a few photos of a craftswoman at work while Katryn had her face painted. It’s a skill that I’ve never mastered. Having said that, I haven’t really had the chance to try it properly. The face paints that you can get from toy shops don’t really cut the mustard.

Katryn asked to be a magic cat. It was a beautiful piece of work but an absolute nightmare to get off…
