Face painters attract children and young adults. If that's who you want to reach, think of something else they would like. Perhaps an area set aside for them to try their own hand at a simple craft?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6556148734104186243.post-42427616827475994912014-08-08T14:55:31.744-07:002014-08-08T14:55:31.744-07:00Sounds like quite a busy week.

Whenever I go there, there seems to be a craft presentation there. Perhaps they could recommend one :)Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00402493912227435890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6556148734104186243.post-82893271645225560182014-08-04T07:21:53.413-07:002014-08-04T07:21:53.413-07:00Like you Jill I would expect face painters to book...Like you Jill I would expect face painters to book a stall like other crafters. But then, their income isn't guaranteed is it!<br /><br />Some sort of crafty workshop might be a nice idea, or a demonstration of some kind.

Hooray for weeds at Wisley!

I image it's really stressful thinking everything is sorted and then at the last minute someone pulls out or doesn't respond, frustrating. Glad to hear you had some relaxing time out with friends. Have a very productive week, hope there are face painters wanting to join in. Take care.<br />Ali xxAlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15885333729417424955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6556148734104186243.post-19666636895809150032014-08-03T10:22:08.487-07:002014-08-03T10:22:08.487-07:00Wow, that sounds like a really busy week.

Hopefully you'll find someone soon. Perhaps another thing to draw families in is to have some sort of crafty thing the kids can take part in?
