Wow! It's been an amazing couple of months! We opened on Thanksgiving day and it has been a fun and fabulous whirlwind ever since! The kind folks that are finding us have given us wonderful feedback about our new store! Great selection, unique items, awesome prices - just some of the things I have been told! But I promise not to rest! I am improving the shop everyday with better displays and visibility of items. I am also adding some new lines to the store... coming soon are Zulugrass beads by the Leakey Collection, Pick up sticks, Pink house imports, Kharmic Concepts and Robin Goodfellow designs. I've also added some great new items from Gwendy's Gems, Doodlebug Dezines, The Silver Box, Agape Gems, Cathedral Collection, Owen Glass, Origin, For the Journey and Accessories by M! We are also working on a collection of bridal jewelry from many of our current artists.

This week we began our in store customer reward program... for every $10 spent in the store, you will receive a punch on your reward card. Spend $100 and get $10 off on your next visit!! We've also just rolled out our new "Honey Helper" cards. Fill out one of these and leave it on file with us. When your "Honey" (or anyone who wants to buy you a gift!) comes to shop for you, we'll pull your card and help them out! We'll even gift wrap your present for free!!

Stay tuned for more news... we'll begin our sidewalk sales in the spring as well as our monthly trunk shows featuring many of the artists you are loving in our store as well as some new ones! We'll also be updating our online store in the near future to make it more representative of our boutique.

We really felt the love for downtown Lawrenceville as so many people expressed excitement about our new location! It great meeting everyone and several lucky people won $50 gift certificates! I also met a lot of wonderful jewelry artists that will hopefully work with me to make Sparkle and even more special place featuring work from so many local artists! Click here for some photos of our booth at the show... my sweet husband did a lot of work on the booth and by the end of the show was describing to folks how to wear a lariat necklace! He is awesome!
