Hello fellow Community Buzz Fans!! My name is Joanna and I just “officially” started a party planning business specializing in Children’s Themed Parties and NOW, Costume making…MONKEY BUSINESS PARTY PLANNING. But first let me tell you a little about myself!!

I was born and raised with a family that loved food, music and friends. We lived for the WEEKENDS!! That passion has stayed strong with me and my family now. I have 2 little monkeys(my girls) that LOVE to dance and sing and plan their own parties.

After years of my friends asking me for advice on what to do for their own children, I have decided to share my enthusiasm and creative mind with you!! I should say thanks to a husband who really has all the faith in the world in me!!

In creating some all time favorite themes such as an ENCHANTED FAIRY THEME, I put together some dress up tutus and found yet another passion!! TUTUS!!! So, I have taken Monkey Business Party Planning to the next level, PARTY WEAR and PARTY COSTUMES….I listed some cutesy things such as a Bumble Bee, Lady Bugs and TINKERBELL and have been blessed with customers who LOVE them!! I was surprised and excited!! You too can check them out on FACEBOOK under Monkey Business Party Planning or on ETSY at MonkeyBusiness10.

Just remember, no party is too small or too big. I can do a GRANDIOUS party or just come visit and paint faces and nails for your kiddies!!

Coming up on October 2nd, I will be at St Paul’s Fall Festival with some of my goodies!! Included will be some themed party place settings, costumes, tutus, fairy wings and beautiful boutique bows. Please check out Monkey Business and see all the creative things I can do for you and your next party!!

Oh, and if you mention “the buzz” you will receive a special discount on any purchase!!
