Helping capture core memories

For your special event, and for every child who gazes into the magic mirror.

About Meredith

From the classroom to the paint kit

I am a former high school English teacher and ACT tutor. Today, I’m a stay-at-home mom and a face painting artist. I love interacting with children and bringing joy and imagination to special events. I live in Homewood, Alabama, with my husband and two daughters.

I hold a master’s degree, and face painting isn’t something I do for the money. I choose this work out of joy, because I love children, I love art, and I love creating magical moments that make people happy. When I arrive at your event, I come as an artist and a professional, ready to make your celebration unforgettable.

I provide face painting services to all of the surrounding suburbs of Birmingham, Alabama.

When you book Goldilocks Facepaints, you book me. I paint your event myself. In the rare case I can’t (it has happened only twice), I may suggest a proven substitute I have worked with before and personally trust to do my work, never an inexperienced stand-in.

“Whether I’m painting a butterfly or transforming a child into their favorite superhero, the possibilities are endless.”

At Goldilocks Facepaints, I believe my unique designs unlock a child’s imagination and bring instant joy to special events.

What you can count on

A choosy mom’s standards

After searching for a face painter who felt just right, Birmingham families found Meredith.

Safe

Only the best paints

As a choosy (some might say, “crunchy”) mom myself, I only use the best industry-safe, FDA-compliant face paints in a range of vibrant colors. I never cut corners when it comes to quality.

Trusted

Reputable brands

I strictly use reputable companies that stand behind their safety and provide full ingredient lists. I’ve done the research for you, so you can rest easy and watch your event’s magic unfold.

Joyful

A teacher’s heart

Years in the classroom taught me how to help little ones feel calm, confident, and celebrated, right up to the big reveal in my magic mirror.
