I started face painting in May of 2000. It was in early 2001 that I dove in by finalizing my marketing and gaining a web site and importantly becoming a licensed business. So I always count April 1 2001, albeit just a bit arbitrary as High Jinks official birthdate. So today High Jinks is 23. Wow!
In honor of our birthday we are committing our blog to offering you our guests and customers content related to birthdays and events most importantly parties. A long overdue venture.
Let’s start with Party theme ideas . So why choose a party theme? I mean a birthday alone is fun but a theme brings so much more. When you book a party with us I will always say…Let me know if you have a theme. That way we will be sure to plan design around the theme and encourage guest to go with the theme.
A theme helps you plan invitations, decorations, food, favors, games, apparels and put people into a festive mode. It’s fun to encourage your guest to come dress or with a bit of theme flair to your party. Or handing out a bit of flair upon guest arrival can help everyone have more fun. So go ahead hand out themed party hats and let’s have some fun.
Here are some themes to get you going toward a great party. Go all out and make it fun.

Each month I will post a theme and share some great ideas and some links to other great sites to plan a day of fun and have a great party. And of course always add in our super fun face painting or temporary tattoos. We are happy to curate designs and custom cut tattoo designs for you special event.
