It’s party time! Give your diva the perfect opportunity to go glam, glittered, and glorious with her entourage. This will be a party for the record books complete with star treatment and special memories for years to come.

So just how much sparkle and flash can you pack into a party? It all starts with the perfect personalized invitation. Once you’ve set your date and time, you can work with the glamorous Sparkling Tiara staff to design an invitation that’s a perfect fit: maybe striking pinks and animal prints, or music notes, or glitter and glam will do the trick. You can choose the look and the details and we’ll print and mail the invitations for you!

When the diva day arrives, your party girls will step in style into a party room with funky and fabulous diva décor. The party starts with attire and accessories. Think pink, think prints, think boas and bows galore. We have a variety of diva digs to suit your birthday girl and her guests from top to toe.

Next, the girls can pump up the shine with diva nail polish, funky hairstyles, and a colorful splash of glamorous make-up (all done by our Sparkling staff, so parents can sit back and enjoy the fun)!

Once the girls are glam to the max, they get to revel in photo ops and dancing to pop.  We have diva-classics and pop songs aplenty to suit your party-girls’ tastes. The Sparkling staff will happily assist the divas with karaoke, dance, or a fashion show! The Sparkling Tiara party room is a perfect place to showcase – there’s a bright, wide open space for dancing and dining, and there are nooks for primping, posing, and singing. Of course, no party room is complete without the perfectly set refreshment table. We take pride in preparing a beautiful array of diva-licious cupcakes, ice cream, lemonade, and cotton candy!

And the final touch to the perfect diva-day? Each guest gets a fabulous glam-goodie bag! So there you have it. Sparkling Tiara can give your little diva and her friends a glam-packed party that’s perfect for all seasons.

But party time is great for you, too, because the Sparkling staff does all of the work! We handle set up and clean up; we primp and serve; we play and supervise. We’ll even help with the photo ops – you can order a photo CD from the party (we’ll mail it to you, or you can swing by the store and pick it up). Booking a party is simple for you and fun for everybody. Come in and schedule your party today so we can show you and your divas that r-e-s-p-e-c-t! Glam-on!

Don’t let last week’s chilly moments fool you – spring has sprung and Easter is almost here!  The days are warming up, and we hope that this coming Sunday is filled with sunshine and blooms.

Whatever the weather, we’re looking forward to having some family time at home and at worship, participating in egg hunts, and enjoying our favorite sweet treats.  We’d like to take a break from our own preparations to wish you a joyous Easter and safe travels to those of you who will be on the road to visit family or soak up spring break.

If you are in town, we’d like to invite you to stop by Sparkling Tiara and let us help you build the perfect Easter basket. If you’re somebunny who’s itching and twitching to create an extra unique Easter gift, then perk up your ears, fluff up your tail, and hop on over to the most sparkling stop.  Our store has just as many delightful surprises as a neighborhood egg hunt, so come in and see what you can spot.

Our Pink Ladies will be happy to assist you as you explore our selection of nail polishes, lip glosses, bows, craft sets, and baubles that will inspire princesses of all ages to hop with delight.  If you’re looking to surprise a Queen in your life, we’ve got that covered, too. Fill her basket with manicure or pedicure accessories, luxurious scented Voluspa candles, adorable key finders, or unique jewelry. You could also put a new spin on an old tradition by using one of our signature Tutu Cute bags or a cuddly animal tote instead of a basket. These adorable totes are the perfect way to present Easter surprises, and they’d be a fashionable addition to an egg hunt.

Hop on over and see for yourself. Happy Easter, royal readers!

 

Sparkling Tiara Royal Appearances: Join Us at Platinum Dance Studio’s Golf Tournament

St. Paddy’s is over, but locals are still thinking green in preparation for the Platinum Dance Studio Golf Fundraiser. The Sparkling Tiara family is counting down to a very special tee time this Friday, March 22nd at Windtree Golf Course to help Platinum Dance Studio raise funds for the 2013 National Dance Competition in Panama City.

Come out and feel the sun on your face, the wind in your hair, and the Sparkle at the 9th hole!  Look for our signature pink tent, flashy smiles, refreshing bottled water, and delicious pink treats all provided by our charming princesses and divas. Lunch and registration begin at 12pm, and tee time is at 1:30pm. All golfers are invited to participate in this event. The $75 registration fee includes lunch and a gift bag for each golfer. There will be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes as well as multiple contests – including the chance to win $1000 for a hole in one. If you want to offer support, but don’t wish to compete in the golf tournament – Platinum Dance is also happily accepting donations.

Even if you’re not a golfer, you’re welcome to join us and view the festivities. Don’t miss this chance to support a great local business that’s always geared towards helping students put their best foot forward with high kicks, spins, jumps, pliés and more! Our friends at Platinum provide students with the opportunity to express themselves through dance while enjoying the benefits of a supportive, uplifting environment.

Platinum’s dedication to high standards and positive experiences is apparent in their extensive list of accomplishments. Now it’s time for the community to support Platinum Dance on the road to 2013 Nationals. Sparkling Tiara is wholeheartedly supporting this effort because, like Platinum Dance Studio, we believe in the long lasting impact of constructive extra-curricular activities for students. We’re proud that youth in our community have made a long term commitment to hone their talents, work together, and achieve the goal of competing at a National Competition.

We can’t wait to add some of our signature sparkle to a day of fun and – hopefully – holes in one! Don’t forget to stop by the 9th hole, say hello, and grab some refreshments and a brochure about our princess, diva, and queen parties.

It’s time to bring out the new calendars and make our plans for the once in a lifetime 2013!  Some might ask “What’s so special about 2013?” We have at least 365 answers. We plan to sparkle, strut, and sass our way through every blessed day of this wonderful New Year.

Today, in addition to wishing you a Sparkling New Year, we’d like to share some of our royal resolutions. The Sparkling Tiara family excitedly pledges to bring you more products online, more wonderful party themes, more community service, and more surprises throughout 2013. 

Late 2012 saw us off to a great start with our online “Gifts to Go.” If you haven’t seen it already, check out our shopping page and have a look at all of the wonderful gifts that we’ve created for a variety of special occasions. We’re happy to ship orders to those of you who are far away (or far, far away). This year, keep an eye on our online shopping page as we add more types of themed Gifts to Go as well as our favorite best-selling items from the store.

We have a variety of talents, but everyone on staff here at Sparkling Tiara considers herself to be a dedicated “party girl.” We love helping little princesses celebrate memorable birthdays, excited bachelorettes enjoy a pre-wedding celebration with their friends, and queens and divas strut their stuff for birthdays and other special occasions. Unique and affordable parties are definitely our specialty: we do all of the prep work (including mailing the invitations and making treats) and clean up so that you can have a relaxing, memorable time. Get ready for more party themes! Soon, we’ll add to our all-star lineup of princess, diva, and queen parties.

Community service is very important to us. We’re proud to have participated in Relay for Life, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, and Toys for Tots campaigns. In an effort to give back to the community that we love so much, we’re pledging more of our time than ever to service projects in 2013. We’ll keep you posted on fundraisers and charity events as they happen, and we hope you join us.

Finally, we sparklingly pledge to bring you a year of royal surprises in store and out. We’ll keep questing for the best gifts and accessories for princesses, divas and queens of all ages. We love to see you for any reason, so drop by and let us help you treat yourself to something nice, find a special gift, plan a memorable party, or just have a chat. Have a Sparkling New Year!

Spotlight on Faith Fallin

Not only does Sparkling Tiara find itself blessed with the best friends and customers around; we can turn the spotlight inward to our amazing staff. This month, we’re highlighting an employee who truly is a blessing in every sense of the word – Mary Faith Fallin!

Faith lives up to her name in every way. Her mother informed us that she was named “Mary” after several family members and “Faith” because the family knew that “God was going to teach [them] great things through this baby.” It’s no wonder, then, that Faith has such a generous spirit. She’s returned the blessings from God, her family, and her community tenfold with her own generous spirit, abundant laughter, and artistic skill.

In 1998, Faith’s father transferred his ministry from First Baptist Church in Kissimmee, FL to First Baptist Mount Juliet, TN. Faith was in 2nd grade when she entered Mount Juliet Christian Academy. That year, she began taking art lessons. Her work has been exhibited in many places including county fairs, art shows, and the Alzheimer’s unit of the local Adult Rehab Center. The Sparkling Tiara staff has also benefited from Faith’s artistic skills: she is an outstanding photographer whose talent really shines when she photographs the young ladies during princess parties.

Faith has athletic and leadership abilities as well. She played soccer throughout her school days and was part of her high school team, which won many awards. Her mother shared some of Faith’s leadership experiences with us: “She held many positions of leadership in their MJCA student council and student body. She volunteered on the yearbook staff and was the editor her senior year along with being ‘Miss MJCA.’ Faith was a leader in the youth council at First Baptist Mt. Juliet and went on many church and youth mission trips.”

Another special talent of Faith’s is her ability to work with all types of children, particularly those with illnesses and other special needs. Through the mentorship of a family friend, Faith has discovered that her calling is to be a Child Life Specialist. In an effort to realize this dream she is currently majoring in Child Development and Family Relations at Lipscomb University, where she is a Junior.

Faith has already taken advantage of many opportunities to use her skills with children who are stricken with illness or emotional strife. During a recent mission trip to Guatemala, Faith “was part of a medical team who cared for homebound medical patients. Faith helped refocus a sweet girl, Anyuli, while she was on kidney dialysis. ”

Faith also used her skills and position at Sparkling Tiara to fulfill a lifelong dream for a young girl named Angelica. Angelica was in need of a lifesaving facial surgery, so the Shalom foundation flew her from her home in Guatemala to Nashville, TN so that she could receive the medical care that she needed. Angelica possesses the heart of a princess, and Faith helped make her royal dreams a reality by working with Sparkling Tiara to host a very special princess party.

We at Sparkling Tiara count ourselves lucky to have Faith as part of our family. She always comes to work with a smile on her face, and you can hear her laughter throughout the store. She frequently makes our day by leaving positive notes in the store for other employees to find. In addition to standing out as an excellent party attendant, Faith serves as a great role model and is loved by all. We’re happy to count Faith as one of our truest blessings!

Merry Christmas from Sparkling Tiara!

2012 was a year full of special gifts for Sparkling Tiara. These gifts can’t be wrapped, packed, or confined to a bag or a box. They don’t go under the tree, in the stocking, or on the table. They’re the gifts of community, happiness, and purpose – and they all came from you! Today, we’d like to say a sincere “Thank You” to our friends and customers, and wish you a heartfelt “Merry Christmas!”

During this season of giving, you’ve shown us your generous spirits by helping us collect toys for the USMC Toys for Tots Campaign. Of course that wasn’t the first time we got to see your kindness in action. We also enjoyed your help during the Susan G. Komen for the Cure and Relay for Life campaigns. And we can’t forget all of the opportunities for simple good fun, such as the recent Mount Juliet Christmas parade. Thank you for showing us what community involvement is all about!

You’ve also shown us happiness – every day is a party day at Sparkling Tiara! We’ve relished each opportunity to meet new princes and princesses of all ages. Our customers help us keep our space cheerful, and we’re glad to see you whether you’re shopping for a special gift, planning a party, or just popping in for a casual browse and a chat.

Finally, we’re delighted over the gift of purpose. Our staff is composed of a variety of dedicated employees, many of them young women who are still in High School or College. We value our customers because you help us learn more about work and life.

2012 has truly been a year of blessings for us, and there’s no better way to bring it to a close than with a very Merry Christmas! We hope that you enjoy a break with your friends and family, that you enjoy a special meal, and that you are blessed with safe and easy travel. We hope you have a sparkling holiday, and we’ll see you soon!

Now it’s time for you to help us celebrate our 2nd anniversary! We’re looking forward to another sparkling holiday season – and we think there’s no better way to mark our 2nd year of business than with a party!

On Pink Friday, November 23rd, Sparkling Tiara will be open from 6am until 7pm. We’ll have refreshments available all day long – so take a break from the rush and come in for a chat and a snack.

Also in honor of our 2nd anniversary, we’re offering our customers a “Tutu Good” promotion: the first 100 shoppers to spend $25 will receive a “Tutu Cute” purse. We think that these special purses are the perfect treat because they’re just like us – unique, adorable, and fun! These festive bags add flare to any ensemble. Keep yours for yourself or give it to someone special.

We have plenty of goodies in the store to put inside.  We have special items for all of the princesses, divas, and queens on your “nice” list.

Sparkle Lots with Toys for Tots!

The holidays are approaching fast, and Sparkling Tiara is pleased to kick off a second year of participation in the USMC Toys for Tots program. Last year we were inspired and encouraged by the members of our community who generously donated toys for distribution to less fortunate children in our area. We’re happy to resume our post as a local collection point for the Toys for Tots program in Mount Juliet. If you’d like to make a donation, stop in during our business hours (Mon. – Thurs 10am – 7pm, Fri. – Sat. 9am – 7pm) and put a toy in the Toys for Tots box. As always, we’ll look forward to visiting with you.

The USMC Toys for Tots program has been wildly successful since its inaugural campaign in 1947. That first year, 5,000 needy children in the Los Angeles area received toys that were collected and distributed by a group of Marine Reservists under the direction of Bill Hendricks.  The next year, Toys for Tots became nationwide. The program has grown to include all 50 states, DC, and Puerto Rico. The mission of Toys for Tots has always been the same: to help community members, local business leaders, and local community welfare agencies to collect toys and distribute them to needy children during Christmas time. The goal is, according to the official Toys for Tots website, to “deliver, through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens.” For more information about the Toys for Tots program, visit their website.

Let’s work together and make sure that every child in the Wilson County community receives this message of hope with a special gift this Christmas. Come by the Sparkling Tiara shop and see us!

Special Sparkling Tiara Employee: Samantha Young

This November we find ourselves giving thanks for our community, our customers, and our special family of pink ladies. At Sparkling Tiara we’re committed to customers of all ages, but there’s an extra special place in our hearts for our petite princesses and junior divas. It’s appropriate, then, that we shine a thankful spotlight on a very special employee who is especially committed to children.

This post is all about the talented and sweet Samantha Young. Samantha possesses a “million dollar smile” that dazzles coworkers and customers alike. Her sweet disposition, artistic flare, and dedication to children make her a favorite princess here at Sparkling Tiara. Coworkers and customers of all ages instantly take a shine to Samantha’s sweetness. She is always willing to lend a compassionate and non-judgmental ear to anyone with a problem. Her understanding attitude and dedication to hard work greatly contribute to the upbeat atmosphere here at Sparkling Tiara.

Samantha also artistically contributes to the visual atmosphere of the store by creating stunning displays and clever storefronts. She can sew anything, and enjoys crafting in her spare time. Her open ears and creative eyes definitely add a healthy dose of sparkle to our store.

Samantha attends TN tech, where she majors in elementary education and minors in special education. Samantha’s chosen career path suits her from head to toe: coworkers and her family praise Samantha’s understanding and compassionate personality. She works well with everyone, but she is especially dedicated to kids. She has a unique ability to make every child feel special and happy during the Princess Parties, and she helps new employees learn how to deliver the best possible experience for the children who come into the store or participate in a party.

Samantha’s commitment to children extends beyond career and into her free time. She dedicates her Sundays to teaching little ones about God’s love at Children’s Church at The Bridge.  Samantha’s dedication to children is heartwarming and inspiring to coworkers and family members alike.

Samantha is multitalented and enjoys a variety of hobbies. When she isn’t working or attending class, Samantha enjoys crafting, playing the mandolin, and listening to music. She lived in Florida for part of her life, where she picked up a passion for swimming and boating. She used to compete in gymnastics and played volleyball at Mount Juliet High School. Her mother describes Samantha as a “great leader” who was nominated captain of the volleyball team her senior year.

Samantha’s thoughtful nature also makes her a great debater who can, in the words of her mom, “debate the best of the best (even her dad) on any given subject.” She also enjoys the finer things in life, like a healthy portion of Mac n Cheese or any food covered in a dose of Ranch dressing.

Sparkling Tiara certainly has a lot to be thankful for with respect to this kind young woman.  Stop in and see sweet Samantha Young – and don’t forget to bring your little princes and princesses along!

Pink Ladies: Sparkling Tiara’s Shining Staff Serves Their Community, Families, and You!

Who are those ladies who greet you with a smile every time you come in for a visit? The ladies who keep the store clean and stocked with the coolest items around? The ladies who keep your queens and princesses happy with the best royal treatment at the fanciest parties in town? The ladies who excel in school and make our community a better place to be? The Pink Ladies, of course!

The Pink Ladies are the staff here at Sparkling Tiara, and this month we’d like to spotlight these special women as a team. They are a unique group of students and cherished professionals who all show remarkable initiative, interest in business, and have personalities which shine in store and out. Kathy Brown, or “Sparkling Sissy,” is a mentor and role model for the younger employees. Her sparkling smile and bubbly personality make her a top salesperson. She has a warm spirit and sets a fantastic example for the other Pink Ladies. “Sparkling Sissy” is retired from Bank of America, where she worked for 30 years. Now, she works at Sparkling Tiara during the week. Sissy, along with the other Pink Ladies, is also active in the Wilson County community.

Community involvement is a regular activity for all of the Pink Ladies. Last year, the Sparkling Tiara Pink Ladies participated in Relay for Life, during which the girls won an award for the best campsite. The Pink Ladies are looking forward to participating again this year. The Pink Ladies have also helped run a spring fashion show at Charlie Daniels Park. The fashion show was a great way to add some sparkle to an exciting day of dress up fun for princesses, divas, and queens of all ages. Summer stays busy with the 4th of July celebrations, and the August princess breakfast party at Chick-fil-A. In the fall the Sparkling staff takes part in the Halloween festivities at Charlie Daniels Park. The Pink Ladies also donate time and resources to several causes such as Toys for Tots and Susan G Komen for the Cure. The Pink Ladies’ community involvement extends beyond activities with Sparkling Tiara and into participation in their schools’ volunteer programs, as well. It’s our mission to add sparkle everywhere we can, and we’re happy to grow a business in such a wonderful and thriving community!

Our Pink Ladies know that family matters. These women put their parents and siblings first. It’s obvious that each Pink Lady adores children and values the impact that positive role models can have on a growing girl. In addition to family matters – grades are tops! Those who are students are a part of honor societies and Dean’s lists. They make time to study for advanced placement classes and projects that will prepare them for careers as educators, businesswomen, and medical specialists. This is why sparkling parties are so special! The Pink Ladies are all upbeat, fun loving young women who show princesses a great time and set a positive example for growing girls.

Any time you and your princess walk into our store, you’ll be treated to the best customer service around – complete with a cheerful smile!  Kindness, smarts, and dedication make these dynamic gals the perfect employees and great role models for your little princesses. Stop in at Sparkling Tiara and see our Pink Ladies today!
