Hey, I'm Lou!

​

I started this little venture back in August 2020 when I was roughly 32/33 weeks pregnant with my second. 

I initially done this as a hobby for family & friends in my local area and eventually plucked up the courage after being made redundant to go for it.

​

I came up with the name after talking with a friend and saying it's all fun and games painting while heavily pregnant at a table, and the name just popped into my head , and it's stuck really. 

​

I've spent many a night scouring the internet, researching different suppliers, paint brands, rollers, paint brushes and sealants. 

​

I remember speaking to suppliers and conversing with customers while I was in labour, my partner and my midwife thought I was mad, but that's the dedication I've put in to this little business, which has now blossomed into my third baby.

​

You can find a variety of items available ranging from bookends to keepsakes, from door signs to wall decor. The main colour palette which gets requested is pastel but I do love a custom request for different colours.

​

I am a mum of 2 little ones (both under 4) and I work around them, which does mean I can be found painting at silly o'clock in the morning and working 6 nights a week. In the lead up to peak times (Christmas & Easter) I will be painting longer hours to ensure all items are dispatched in time. 

​​

All of our items are for decorative purposes only.

​

Turn around times are 4-6 weeks depending on the item. 

​

Paint and Laughter is growing every month and I've finally taken the plunge after 18 months of Best Sellers on Etsy to set up my own site. So here goes!
