Clowns
Hi..I’m Miss Jacki. You might see me out clowning around at a birthday party, school event, church, company picnic, holiday festival, convention, or just about anywhere crowds are looking to tickle their funny bone. How about ringing me (up on the phone) to book your special event? I do fabulous face painting, spectacular balloon twisting, cool magic, very awesome ventriloquism, and you might even hear a small voice coming from your pocket! Remember, something GREAT is going to happen to you today.

Face Painting
Beautiful faces make a perfect canvas for beautiful paintings!!! Fabulous full face painting or cute cartoon characters on your cheek!! Only water based, hypo-allergenic face paints that will not harm the skin are used.

What up dog! JoJo Bean is my name and outwitting the kids is my game. Birthday Parties are a blast with me but I’m not the star... the kids are! Verna Finly is my seamstress. She’s a Florida girl and I’m a, well, if you must know, a Florida alligator.

Two Ravens here. I’m a native American from Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota. I was made by Betty Lehnus of Wichita, Kansas.

I, the one, the only, the Great Chesterfield attempt to combine the illusion of magic with the illusion of ventriloquism. OK you whipper snappers sometimes it doesn’t work. But you know my motto: been there – done that – can’t remember! Another Verna puppet; this one carved to resemble Howie Olson.

I’m Ricky, a Marshall figure, and I’ll do anything to get into the act! In Houston, Texas years ago I was José Zino, then Freckles. But now I’m just plain Ricky with lots of not so plain interests like Karate and Mountain Climbing.

Balloon Twisting
Come on baby... let’s do the twist! For the potentially twisted, those already twisted, and those of you looking for a different twist on life!! Balloons, balloons, and more balloons! Let’s twist and shout at your next party! Beautifully sculptured balloon art: animals, hats, flowers, action figures, hearts, etc.
