Today we’d like to introduce you to Kanoe Leonard.
Hi Kanoe, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
My passion began over 15 years ago, when attending our local Hawaii 4th of July Event, The face painter at the event worked as quickly as she could, and she kiddingly asked do you want to help! I said “absolutely”. I enjoyed every part of that 6 hours as the joy of the children after seeing the “Mirror Moment” as we face painters call it. A moment that just hits your heart. Since then I have enjoyed, doing face painting at children ministry events and county fairs, etc. As an entrepreneur, I have tried numerous of little side business that never panned out, This business has been different! As you see it in our name, It’s because of God’s Glory as reveled in his Word and his countless blessings in our lives we seek to honor Him, through Glory & Giggles and the beautiful faces we encounter. As we are all made in His Image.
“To give the light of the knowledge of the Glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthian 4:6”
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
As there are many roads in life that seem difficult, however our God has promised us that “I will never leave you nor forsake you, Hebrews 13:5
As you know, we’re big fans of Glory & Giggles. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
We specialize in Face Painting and glitter fun! What separates us is our first impression (tent set-up). This in itself has been in progress for 6 months. Every part of the set up has carefully been thought out as we do our best to represent Christ in every part of our business. We have given all to Him as we designed and did the best we could, ultimately keeping Him in mind. Another highlight is our airbrush face painting set up that helps us with our line management for speed painting when needed. We are the go to for your mobile “Slime Station”. Children get to custom their slime from texture, color, smell, and of course we can’t forget the sprinkles! Parents love this option as it offers entertainment for birthday parties as well as solve the “I have no idea for gift bag goodies” as the slime is their take home thank you and gift bag.
We’d be interested to hear your thoughts on luck and what role, if any, you feel it’s played for you?
As believers all of our faith rest upon the Sovereignty of God who said himself that not one sparrow will fall to the ground apart from the will of your father which is in Heaven. So we completely rely on His control and not ours, (Mat 10:29)
