Paint n Sparkles specialise in art workshops and parties in Melbourne. We offer many different packages to suit all children’s interests. We offer art and craft parties, custom art parties, eco art parties, slime parties, playdough parties, sensory play parties, Macrame parties and Mosaic art parties.
At Paint n Sparkles we strive to be eco conscious in our business practices. We still have a long way to go and will be making quite big changes over the next few year.
