Thank you for sharing this! I never thought about the health & safety tips :)

LOVE the WORD board vs. the actual pics. Thanks for sharing!

So helpful. I have my first event this weekend and I noticed your board in your set up video and was perfect way since I'm new and this video couldn't have come at the best time thank u

Wonderful that you include your health and safety info on your board. I'm often shocked when I see some of the face painters in my city who don't pay any attention to keeping the kiddos safe. I think that perhaps they are in "family mode"... sharing germs is normal and not even considered. To my mind we face painters, as adults, need to pay extra attention to this detail... face painting is supposed to be for fun, but it isn't when stuff gets spread around. I list H & S on a panel of my pamphlet for parents to take home and take into consideration if thinking of hiring me for an event of their own. Also, it's wonderful that you go through the pros for each of the types of boards for beginners. Nice video... thanks for sharing. :)

Thank you for all you help and wonderful ideas.

Thank you for your sharing Ashlea! Youre now my favourite face painting guru ❤️

I am so grateful for all the information you are providing 🙏

I so love this idea, I'm going to start working on boards asap thank you so much for sharing Ashlea

can you do a video on how you got yourself started in doing face painting and how you made a business out of it

Love this! they look so smart i use words with a little cartoon pic on- I actually brought a huge pin board the other day for 50p so i think ill paint it and do this :) thanks Ashlea xxx

Great video Ashlea. Really useful info.

your great at face painting, i've se en some vídeos but your are one of ones with this talent

Important and helpful info! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Thank you so much for all of your helpful information.

I love that you have a Health and Safety Alert on your board. How SMART! By chance would you mine sharing in more detail?

This was very helpful. I am just finding my feet and this is a great way to do them for the future. Thank you :)

Loads of awesome info Ashlea. I am switching from a picture board to a word board tonight! thanks Nicole

This is so great! Thank you!!!

This one time, I did an event where there would be children who spoke French (and my French is not good enough to understand children), so I chose to make a board with cartoon pictures of the things I usually paint. That way, I didn't have to do exact copies of the pictures, and we wouldn't get stuck with language barriers as the kids could simply point at the thing they wanted. But I do love to get crazy special requests so I can try something new :)

Awesome set up, that helps me for my buisness so much

I just love all of your ideas and designs. I am kind of intrigued about your mom, you mention her several times during the video but I do not know her, who she is? besides that Thank you for sharing your ideas I really appreciate them.

Thanks for sharing!!! Gives me an idea

Great tips thanks! I think I'm going to create a board with words, then put a couple of pictures at the top to make it eye catching (best of both 😉)

hi my name is jazmin and i love you board designs u made lots of sense just starting my business and you are right about eevolving and making better paintings so true ..loved your policy you think you can do a close up would like to make one for myself ....thanx youve helped alot 💜

Amo tus videos

This is awesome babe, thank you

Great ideas!!! Thank you!!!

nice board! :)

you aew amaaaazing!

im getting mine organised ty for yr guidence

Great and very helpful information, thank you. Are you using Photo Shop? What size are the photos on your board? I'd be interested in seeing a series of videos of your festival eye designs. I do love your teaching...very clear and concise, and always lovely designs.

Very nice. Thanks for posting it. I just love listening to you talk. Let's Go Ya'll!!!!!™

Very helpful, thank you

Great idea! What size board is that? I have what we call foam board but it's standard size yours looks bigger.

Do you have a copy of what the health and safety part says its really good to have that to back you up if you do get in a bit of trouble with a customer. Love the idea.

Great info

Quick question! What is the size of the black background board? Seems like you've picked the perfect size for displaying full pages or half page printouts. Amazing job, thank you!

Word board definitely has more positives,maybe one photo pic added on top to show that your face painting. Thanks Ashlea :)

Thanx Ashlea, nice to see your face again! I just got a notification to say you have just put on a new vid and I got all excited, both boards are a fab idea! I'm guessing your mum doesn't print the Name cards on a standard printer? When will you be putting another painting vid up? Xxx

very very helpful

how do you make sure that everyone reads the Health and safety regs ? if the sign is at your table...and they join the queue at the end of the long line i dont realise theres rules until they reach your table ?

I just places a large order for those signs wooo woo thank u

Hi, your link for your name cards doesn't work? Loved the video and really helped. Thank you

Hi Ashlea, I really like your menue board ideas. I would like to have pic mixed in with my words but i have no pics. I have seen some boards with it looks like colored pics. Can you help me with that?

Hi Ashley love your display board, what's the size of it?

hello what paint is good to do line work From TAG

Love the idea of just being able to order the cards directly from your site...(cuz I am super lazy!), but there just aren't enough to choose from....will you be offering more of them in the future??

I can't wait to build mine!! Do you ship to Canada?? :)

Do you have separate shots of your display board pieces? I'd just like to see what they say

Gostaria tanto de saber o que esta falando, sera que eu consigo traduzir o áudio, se alguém souber me avise ?

I see you offer your health & safety card in your online shop, however for those of us living internationally the cost is prohibitive. ie for a Canadian to have you ship internationally just that one laminated sheet worth 3.50 pounds ($6.99) would be 32.75 pounds = $65.40 Canadian in total according to your shipping rates. Although I think it's a brillant idea, who can afford that! Would you consider offering it for say 1.50 pounds as a paid download then the laminating etc is our responsibility. Or perhaps just share it as others have asked for. Just a thought. Cheers

I've been doing this for years, and I love the idea of the word board. I hate taking picture boards because then it's all you end up doing. 100 identical butterflies... boring!

very nice, what is it? cardboard, wood?

starting out in face painting, and I'm doing a lot of research but i cannot find what i need so hopefully you can help! during a session (kids party) and u have your dirty water and u want to change it during the gig, WHERE DO YOU DUMP IT? do u excuse yourself, go to bathroom to dump? dump in their lawn? take a bucket w/u for dirty water??

What website can I purchase the word signs?

What are the Dimensions of the boards?

How did you make it?

Can you post what your Safety Guidelines are? It's hard to read in the video....thanks.

I would like to buy some word cards. That's a great idea and I don't have a printer. I'll look you up. :D

Are u the model for snazaroo?

what if a child is desperate for e.g. a parrot or a monkey and you know you can't do it? They are bound to ask for things which aren't on the board. Thx

Where did you get this board from

just a quick question, do you have to have parent/guardian permission to take photos of your work to put on display board please? x

Hi Ashley, it seems like many people are asking questions on this site and most never get answered. I know you are busy but it would be helpful to see your answers to these questions. It's appreciated that you share your knowledge with us.

oh ok 😊💬✌

Also are the pictures photo copied on paper or are they real photos? X

Do you paint people with acne or can you not?

your links to the product is not working properly for the the States

hi! your links aren't working :(

Left a message on your facebook page but I will ask a shortened version of it here. Can the website you mentioned create price cards that reflect US prices?

can l know about your health and safety police?

Do you lay the boards up against the front of your table? I did a search on 'face paint display boards' and then clicked on 'images' to see how people are setting up their boards (or signs, samples of work, banners, etc.) in relation to everything else and the few I found are in front of everything, hiding the painter/subject chairs and most everything else. I would think the actual painting would attract customers and that you and the subject would need to be front and center, not covered up, with boards off to the side, but I haven't seen any set up that way yet. If face painting is anything like caricature drawing, the mere act itself is considered 'entertainment' and people like to watch before they decide to have it done. Do you have the written text of your board disclaimers (the legal stuff) typed up anywhere so we can see exactly what they say? At 3:00 it sounds like you say that some people will paint over 14's without their parents but that you won't. Did you mean to say under 14s? What is 'blue tack' at 5:54?

Shame she lives in the U.K I live in Australia

WHYYYYYY have you got 'FREE' Facepainting ? that upsets me , if its free you are PAYING to paint , if you are being SPONSORED then put SPONSORED by ... not FREE .. other than that great video xx

It's really good but under 14 most people over 12 don't even like face paints anymore
