Your KIT!!! (Pics)

I have a few like that... depends what designs I feel like doing that day!!

Just got my banners the other day, it's getting there

Looking great, Kerrie! I love how you incorporated the gears into your logo design, very clever and memorable!

Isn't it wonderful to be able to see everyone's kit and set up? I will post mine as it comes together soon.

I really enjoy seeing other painter's setups and get so many new ideas from each one ; ) Tara's showstopping pirate chest case is the most original I've seen!

Due to limited space at parties, I like to keep my kit as compact as possible. Until I added Glitter Tat supplies, everything I needed to paint with fit into the Tote.

I managed to get all my supplies into a bead Case & Tote for lighter travel & quicker setup. The tote has my Brush Tube, Glitter Tat supplies, wipes, mister, water pails, camera, mirrors & 12x16" laminated Party Posters. They all fit flush in the Tote but I pulled some up so they can be seen in the photo. I stack my paint pallets in the Case lid with with a page protector of stencils beneath it. I taped black construction paper on the inside of the lid with my business card in the center to make it more professional looking and to keep prying eyes & sticky fingers from it.

This setup works great in tight quarters! The tiny TV tray & chair next to me was all the space available at my Grandaughter's second birthday and it worked out just fine, with everything at my fingertips & easy reach ; )

More photos and my festival setup is in the photo album of https://www.facebook.com/FacePaintersSetUp

Alrighty here is my scrapbook rolling tote:


And I fit all these:


I can even squeeze my table cloth on the tote. On the front pockets I carry two lil bags with sfx stuff, gems , and other cakes, side pocket my camera, other 2 side pockets, my business cards, a tiny flashlight, hand sanitizer, a pen and notepad.. My set up only takes 5 minutes...everything ready to go!
I'll take pictures of my ez up set up this weekend..

Hi you all, I just bought a new table this morning (@aldi for the dutch girls) and I love it already, I didn't put all my stuff in there, but just to see if it all would fit! and see if it's tall enough for me...
It was not that expensive (€ 49.99) and it's very nice, just have a look in my gallery, i don't have a clue how to post pics in this tread, Yes I know it's written down over and over, but I just don't have the time right now to read all that!


Take care, love Jantien

woohooo I did it!!! wooohooo, and do you guys like it? I know some one on here has one as this one too!

take care, Love Jantien

Happy Painting,

I dont have a picture of my kit, but i'll do my best to paint a mental image for ya!
I've learned to scale it down just a tad so i can fit everything except my EZ Up Tent, table and chairs, display sign, into a suit case on wheels. love them wheels.
Inside the case there's a wood box, about 8.5 x 11" in diameter, 4" deep.
In there goes 2 smaller wood boxes. one with glitter, one with sponges.
next to those go various items like box tape, writing utencil, scissors, small mirror and larger glitters that dont fit into the small box.

other things in the case go 2 small hand towels, larger mirror, 2 banners to hang on the tent, table cover, collapsible step stool, design book, flyers. Inside one of the pockets goes a case for my brushes.

you get the idea. if it's all nice n neat it doesnt all jumble up when i bring the case up on it's wheels and walk around with it.

Since I use a tall table to paint from, a big rolling suitcase really sounds ideal for maximum storage space plus you can hide it under the table.

this is what I take with me. only did forget to put my chair in the picture.

Hoping I'll have time to take a pic this weekend. It's just me and I never seem to have time to take a pic before the kids start lining up! LOL

I'll try to set mine up in the house and post a pic. It's just a Fat Max so it look similar to the others

I love these threads!!!

Jantien- is that ALDI,as in the grocery store? If so that's where I got my tent
I love the table - I want one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That table is FABULOUS!!! Love the case and how nicey it holds so much paint all prettily lined up! Thanks so much for sharing pics!

Yes that's the grocerystore, do you guys have that one too? I'm surprised, i tought it was a German store...

I tried it once already, love it, it's heavy but very nice, it won't tip over...

Take care, love Jantien

I have that table, I got mine from Bass Pro shop and it is only 15lbs I love mine

Yes I remember yours, it doesn't have a close top does it?! but a metal frame, the one i have is also closed at the top, so the part you open up, is closed, that's why I could put my banner there, it's called a camping kitchen...
So it prevents the grease of cooking to get all over the place... Well I'm not planning on splattering my face paint around so much! hahaha... I think I might put a mirror in there also...

So that probably makes it so much heavier...

anyway I like it, when it's up I'm fine, the only thing is to carry it around, hope I can park nearby if I have to.

Take care, love jantien

Mine is also a camp kitchen. I can hang my banner on mine with the metal rack and it has a paper towel holder hanging baskets and a lantern pole that I can hang either an additional sign or my glitter tat display. Here's a pic





Either way they are definitely are great table to have and I am glad I decided to get it.

Changing- Where did you get your glitter tattoo display?
I love it!

Anyone have a rolling cosmetics case? I checked some out on ebay and they look really convenient but soooo expensive...

From looking at the cases, I have never felt they were particularly sturdy even tho I drooled over them too...

I used to use the cosmetics cases I have for makeup (moved to a camera backpack for on set - easier to carry to second floor studios and padded with sections so easily sorted) - wheels are rather flimsy though and I wouldn't want to pull them across rough ground - I was at an event this weekend where we were in a rough field that had been driven over when wet - ruts etc - my tool case wheels were up to the task though and I didn't have any trouble hauling in or out.
