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!

On December 8th, Sparkling Tiara is pairing the perfect candle with the perfect match. We’re of the opinion that a candle with no matches can be about as disappointing as a toy with the label “batteries not included.” That’s why customers will receive a free set of Mud Pie Christmas themed matches with the purchase of a Voluspa Candle.

Start the month of December with a touch of sparkle and visit our store during this Saturday’s special giveaway. We have a variety of scented Voluspa candles to choose from and plenty of holiday themed match sets to match! Voluspa candles are the perfect home accent any time of year. They are a great way to add some atmosphere to friendly gatherings, a romantic dinner at home, or quiet time. It’s always a good idea to have a few nice candles handy, and since the holidays are upon us there’s no better time to make sure that you and your friends are stocked up.

Stunningly packaged Voluspa candles are an extra special touch because they combine simple beauty with luscious scent combinations such as Baltic Amber, Belle Sucre, French Cade and Lavender, Santiago Huckleberry, Gardenia, Sued Blanc, and Gojil and Tarocco Orange. These unique candles are a store wide favorite, so we want to make a holiday special offer that really shines.

Mud Pie’s match sets are the perfect one of a kind complement to our candles. The beautifully designed containers are a cute and safe way to store matches. Keep a set of Mud Pie matches visible near the fireplace or candle collection as an extra bit of cheery flare. In honor of the season, Sparkling Tiara is offering these sets in a variety of traditional holiday designs. Each colorful tube contains 75 matches that are 12” long – perfect for lighting the fireplace or a favorite candle.

Now’s the perfect time to pick up the candle you’ve had your eye on for a friend or for yourself.  Let your light shine and don’t forget to come visit Sparkling Tiara this Saturday (December 8th) for the Mud Pie match set giveaway!

Tis the season for good deeds and grateful hearts, family gatherings, and community events!  Sparkling Tiara has never been happier to be a part of the Mount Juliet community. This month, we find ourselves serving more customers in more ways (in store and online) and relishing opportunities to bond with our friends and neighbors.

One of our favorite community gatherings is the annual Mount Juliet Christmas Parade.  This year’s theme is “Starry Nights and Christmas Lights,” and we plan to bring out the Sparkle! Come out at 6pm this Saturday, December 8th, to watch the parade and help celebrate Mount Juliet’s 40th year.

The parade route is along Mount Juliet Road: the start point is First Baptist Church and the end point is Charlie Daniels Parkway. Dance and sing along as marching bands play your favorite Christmas tunes. Hang out with Santa and his special helpers. And don’t forget to look out for the Sparkling Tiara family! We’ll be strutting our stuff down the parade route, and sharing sparkling smiles and holiday merriment with everyone we meet. Don’t worry, you won’t miss us: just think pink! We’ll be decked out in our usual regal splendor.

Bundle up, gather your friends and family, and stake your claim to a prime viewing spot along the parade route. Don’t forget to let your little princesses don their tutus, wands, and wings – we’d be delighted to see some royalty amongst the crowds. We’re looking forward to the opportunity to take a break and share some Christmas cheer with you, our Mount Juliet friends and neighbors. So join us for this cherished community tradition, and ring in the holiday season with an unforgettable Christmas parade.

You bring the smiles (and a camera!), and we’ll bring the Sparkle!

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!

Relay for Life

There’s plenty of action for the Pink Ladies of Sparkling Tiara this week as they prepare to participate in Relay for Life on May 11th at Charlie Daniels Park. Sparkling Tiara places community involvement as a top priority because we love our friends, families, neighbors, and customers. This fundraising event is particularly important for us as we honor the members of our community who have struggled with cancer. We hope you join us for a day of remembrance, education about cancer screening, celebration of survivors, and community fellowship.

According to the official website, Relay for Life began in the mid-80s with the effort of colorectal surgeon Dr. Gordy Klatt. In 1985, Klatt spent 24 hours walking or running around a track: his efforts culminated in his running a spectacular 83 miles and, together with his community, raising $27,000 for his local Tacoma ACS office. Since that time Relay for Life has grown into a meaningful event for communities across America to collaborate and support screening and research for all types of cancer. The 12 hour event includes a survivors lap, a caregivers lap, a memorial lap, a luminaria ceremony, great food, and fundraising activities.

Mount Juliet’s own Relay for Life 2012 is sure to be an incredible occasion. 19 teams of 187 participants are signed up to join in the relay. Sparkling Tiara won’t be hard to find: just think pink! The winners of last year’s “best campsite” award are at it again with their favorite theme color. We’ve spent last weekend working on the campsite and getting everything ready for our visitors. Come by and check out a paradise of pink! We’ll have pink popcorn, cotton candy, sweets, and home-made baked goods for sale (yes – all pink!). All of the Sparkling Tiara Pink Ladies will contribute delicious, charmingly decorated treats. In the spirit of serving our community 100%: we’ll donate all of the proceeds to the cause. Just look for the ladies in the pretty pink t-shirts!  We look forward to seeing you there!

Event Information:

Mount Juliet Relay for Life will be held from 6am to 6pm on Friday, May 11th.

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!

The Greatest Greetings

Card shopping is amusing enough, but do you ever get the feeling that – for all of the wonderful cards in the world – you can’t find one that’s just right? It’s possible to spend two hours in a card aisle and still manage to come out of the store empty handed.

We all want a card that’s appealing but also conveys our own personal messages. Simple greeting cards for special moments like birthdays, births, and weddings are simultaneously universal and personal:  the general message is the same for everyone, but we always have our own touch to add.

Sparkling Tiara knows the importance of landmark days and the greetings that come with them.  We think that hand-made cards stand out above the rest because they take time and painstaking care to make. Even if you don’t have the time to make one yourself, you can still give a handmade card. We are pleased to offer you a tasteful selection of hand-made greeting cards that balance convenience with a personalized touch.

Show your friends and family that you value them and their landmark days with an elegant greeting card and a hand written message. Our selection of cards is suitable for a variety of occasions: some themes are birthday, sympathy, thank you, congratulations, baby, and wedding.  We also carry blank cards so that you can highlight a personal occasion or a special “out of the blue” greeting. The designs are clean and attractive, and the messages are simple so that you can add your own personal touch. Nothing could be more meaningful to a dear friend than your own words written to commemorate a special day.

These cards are sure to become keepsakes that will decorate any scrapbook or mantel. Looking for a great gift to go with your greeting? You know we have those, too! Come in today and see our lovely gifts and perfect cards.
