Mireille is amazing! I hired her for my kids birthday party and her art work blew me away! My daughter is OBSESSED! My son thought he was so tough with his dragon arm tat lol. The way she interacted with the little ones and then how she interacted with the teens, you can tell she has been doing this for a while and it shows. Super friendly, super professional, amazing business that I will definitely use again

Mireille has done several events for us, most Recently a school dance! She was amazing! We even brought the balloons to the Graduation after! Star themed party! The other event- 3 years ago was a work party! Her work is incredible. Thanks!

Mireille is so kind, and is also very personable. My kids loved their balloon animals, as well as their face paint. She is very talented at what she does. I would absolutely recommend Midwest Fun Factory!

Amazing service and quality! Hired her for our kids' birthday party to do face painting. Her work is truly impressive. She made sure all of the kids got exactly what they wanted. I've also purchased numerous gifts from Mireille, including custom glasses, Christmas signs, and a snow globe balloon for our elves at Christmas. Hire her, you will not be disappointed!

I ordered a custom Iron Man balloon art creation for my son's 7th bday, and I can't even tell you how amazed we were with Mireille's work! My son's bday was during shelter in place, so this was such a special addition to celebrate. Her artistic talent, professionalism, and quality is incredible and I can't wait to order again! Thank you!

Mireille is amazing! She has made serveral balloons for my family and I. Very easy to work with and she is an awesome person! I only have good things to say about her and her business.

I never knew that I needed balloons at every festive event I host until I met Mireille. She made stunning and detailed displays for both my plumbing company ribbon cutting and the grand opening of the Batavia Boardwalk Shops. Everyone loved her festive additions to our events. Plus she does personalized water bottles for sports teams, face paint art and so much more. My one stop shop for fun party additions

Mireille is first class and an amazing balloon artist! She can custom anything you can dream up! She is also a wonderful person who cares so much about giving you the perfect end project you desire. Her face painting is amazing too! She is a one stop shop for entertainment and decorations when throwing a party! She definitely adds a glittery touch to any event! My daughter is still talking about how cool her Hermione balloon was for her Harry Potter party! Thanks Mireille

My husband had a milestone birthday this year. He loves his super heroes and his sports. She had some great ideas for original balloons and made a centerpiece that made him smile despite turning 60!

Mireille came to my daughter's birthday party to do face painting and was the hit of the party! She was patient with 25 little girls and had tons of designs for us to choose from. Highly recommend her services! The kids were talking about the party for weeks after because of Mireille! Thanks again!

Twinkles is a fantastic artist when it comes to BOTH balloons and face painting! Her talent is never ending, be it entertainment or decor. She makes everyone smile!

I've dealt with Mirae professionally as a face painter and also since she's a face painting supplier. She's wonderfully skilled, and cares about each individual or business she works for. A longstanding, skilled face painter and balloon twister in the area, she's respected by her fellow professionals as well as her many happy clients. I will continue to purchase supplies from her and work with her when I have opportunities.

This lady is horrible. Not only did she say she was going to make balloons for my sick little girl, but she a few days later decided she didn't want to be around sick people. She is disgusting and totally non sympathetic. My little girl now does not have any balloons, and this lady is unreliable. Do not hire her, she will not get the job done. She also hung up on me as I explained to her that she didn't even have to deliver the balloons, and I would pick them up.

My daughter may not live to celebrate another birthday, and MIrae had to audacity to say the reason she doesn't want to do it is because she doesn't want to be around sick people, and then she changes her excuse and says she is booked. Once again, I told her she doesn't even need to be around anyone, I would pick up the balloons, but she again is extremely rude and tries calling me, harassing me, because I am telling the truth on yelp. DO NOT hire her, you will regret it, she is money hungry, not willing to help, and does not want to be around "sick" children. When my daughter gets better, I will never hire anyone like her. She is disgusting.
