Let Smiley Cheeks Bring the Fun to Your Event

About Us

At Smiley Cheeks, we believe in adding a splash of colour, creativity, and joy to every event we attend! Based in Manchester and proudly women-owned, we opened our doors in 2021 after discovering a love for face painting through volunteering. What began as a spontaneous opportunity quickly blossomed into a passion—and soon after, a business!

Since then, we’ve been bringing smiles to little faces (and big ones too!) across Manchester and beyond with our vibrant face painting and balloon modelling. From birthday parties and christenings to school fairs, weddings, and corporate events, we create fun, custom designs that match any party theme. 

Our favourite part? Seeing the excitement in a child’s eyes when they see their transformation—and sharing joyful, patient moments with every guest.

We go the extra mile to make each event magical, and we’re always open to new ideas to make your celebration one to remember.

Our Mission

To spark joy, imagination, and unforgettable memories through creative face painting and balloon art—bringing colour to every celebration and making children (and adults!) smile, one brushstroke at a time.
