Once upon a time – well, two years ago – Sparkling Tiara opened its magical doors in Mount Juliet, Tennessee! We’ve helped plenty of princesses celebrate enchanted birthdays, and we’ve given loads of divas a place to strut their stuff during bachelorette bashes. 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!

This week, we’d like to invite all of you – our royal extended family – to our 2nd anniversary celebration (which just happens to be on “Pink” Friday). 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.

Our sassy store is an oasis of calm and sparkle – a perfect stop during a long day of shopping. Whether you’re a returning customer or a newcomer, we’ll be delighted to have you help us celebrate. Let us impress you with our friendly staff, outstanding products, and beautiful store.

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. Come check out our candles, jewelry, handmade crafts, bath and beauty products, stationary, and more. So come one, come all to our special party! Enjoy some free refreshments and lots of good cheer.

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!

Every Princess Deserves a Tiara!

The Sparkling Tiara knows a thing or two about royal fashion, and there’s one item that stands out above the rest. It’s so important, in fact, that it’s our name! The word “tiara” is derived from Old Persian (tiyara).

The history of the tiara is long and varied, with multiple cultures and uses involved. In Egypt, tiaras adorned the heads of mummies. Greeks and Romans would place gold tiaras on the statues of their gods. Later, tiaras became popular for royalty all across Europe and into Russia.

Tiaras are made using all kinds of metals and stones, and there are a variety of styles to suit a variety of wearers. Nowadays, most people associate tiaras with the royal family, prom queens, and brides. At Sparkling Tiara, we associate tiaras with all princesses everywhere! Even for those of us who aren’t blood-royalty, a tiara can mark a special day and become a treasured keepsake.

Give your little princess a tiara to make her dress up days complete. Glam up a dinner party by using tiaras as place settings – your delighted guests will love trying them on for size! Brides and bridesmaids, birthday girls of any age, and prom attendees can also all use tiaras to add extra sparkle to their special days. And of course tiaras aren’t a one-time-use item.  These gorgeous headdresses will glam up a table or decorate a shelf.

Sparkling Tiara always has a stunning stock of tiaras! Our crown jewels are available in small, medium, and large and come in a variety of styles. Our lovely circlets are decked out with charming rhinestones set in delicate patterns like hearts and crowns, or you can go extra posh with pearls! We change our stock regularly, so come in often and check out our supply.

Special Sparkling Tiara People: Taylor Kniffin

Sparkling Tiara has so much to offer you and the royalty in your life, but our employees are the jewels that make our store sparkle the most. It’s important to take a break and tell you about the bright young women who really matter to our business and our community.

Today we’re proud to turn the spotlight on a very deserving and energetic member of our team: Ms. Taylor Kniffin. Taylor is a highly self-motivated young woman who brings energy and insight into the store. She stays on top of new changes to the business and suggests ideas to better serve our customers. She’s an upbeat and accommodating master of multi-tasking who responds well to the needs of the business and always radiates a positive attitude.

Taylor’s business sense is no mystery; she’s remarkably focused on her future and committed to success. Taylor is 18 years old and will graduate with honors from Mount Juliet High School this spring. She will start college at MTSU in the fall, where she will study accounting. Taylor has done a great deal to prepare herself for her career: she’s currently taking AP calculus and she’s enrolled in an online college course in accounting from Vol State Community College. Last summer, she attended accounting camp at Belmont University. Taylor has met these considerable academic challenges with a high standard: she’s a member of the National Junior Honor Society and the Beta Club (an organization which promotes academic leadership and community service).

Taylor’s extraordinary scholastic motivation doesn’t get in the way of her involvement with family and friends. Her mother notes that Taylor was an only child until age 8; and now she has two sisters, ages 9 and 5. Taylor’s energy and skill caring for children came naturally. She quickly and selflessly adjusted to the change in family dynamics and became a top notch big sister. She often babysits her sisters or other kids in her neighborhood.

Taylor has found a unique balance of striving for personal goals and happily serving the people around her. Her passions extend to a variety of interesting activities. In her 18 years, she’s found time to try snow skiing, SCUBA diving, fishing, dancing (ballet, lyrical, and hip-hop), and singing. She spends her spare time with her family, friends, and her boyfriend Noah.

This bright young woman has already mastered the art of harmoniously coordinating academics, community involvement, family time, and professional development in her life. We feel very lucky to have Taylor as a valuable part of our Sparkling family.  She’s a tremendous asset to the business as well as a beloved friend.  Stop by and see Taylor Kniffin today!
