Thoughtful, joy-filled parties for every child

Behind the paintbrush

A wee business
with a big heart.

Danielle created Pretty By Designs from a love of creativity, children’s smiles and the belief that money shouldn’t stand between a family and a day worth remembering.

Colourful face-painting reveals at an Edinburgh community celebration

Every child should get to feel like the party is for them.

Make it magical. Keep it human.

With ten years in events, Danielle knows a brilliant party isn’t measured by how much it costs. It’s in the moment a child sees their painted face, the game everyone finds a way to join, and the story they’re still telling on Monday.

That’s the spirit behind every Pretty By Designs enquiry. Danielle listens first, keeps options flexible and brings the sort of warm, down-to-earth energy you’d want from someone invited into your family’s day.

When time and circumstances allow, that same energy is donated to local good causes—because community care should be something you do, not just something you put on a page.

What guides us

Four things we won’t compromise.

01

Kindness

Families are met with warmth, no judgement and a genuine willingness to help.

02

Inclusion

People are different. The celebration should flex—not the person.

03

Honesty

Clear conversations about budgets, availability and what will work well.

04

Joy

The whole point: relaxed grown-ups, happy guests and memories with sparkle.
