About Pick Up Sticks jewelry…

Moonlight Wrapture

Heather Trundle has
always been creative, but focusing mainly on threadwork and yarns.
In 2001, a trip to the Georgia Renaissance Festival ended with a
trip to a craft store for her first set of pliers and a coil of
cheap aluminum wire. Heather soon found out that wire is an
extension of thread and yarn and the ability to create a beautiful
piece of wearable art came naturally.

During the day, she is the Senior R&D Chemist for Plaid Enterprises,
Inc. During the evening she is a wire jewelry artist.  After
the first year of learning to create jewelry, her husband
informed her that she needed to stop making jewelry or start
selling it because her new hobby was taking over the dining
room so Moonlight Wrapture was born.

Heather designs unique wire sculpted jewelry using Sterling Silver
and 14kt Gold Filled wire.  Her creations incorporate stone
cabochons, faceted semi-precious gemstones, pearls, shells,
and any other items that can be fashioned into unique pieces
of jewelry.  She has the ability to bend, sculpt, and wrap
wire into pendants, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and
more.  Her creations have been featured in the Gwinnett
Business Journal, Gwinnett Daily Post, and Women’s Metro
Directory.

Sparkle! carries a full line of Heather’s work including rings, bracelets, earrings and pendants.

Sweet Romance

There is something almost magical about putting on a piece of Sweet Romance jewelry…
…Beyond mere ornament, it connects us to the lineage of women whose fashion artifacts continue to influence our personal sense of style.

You will not believe the beauty and quality of this line – from the same folks that bring us the gorgeous Ollipop rings comes this amazing line of “modern vintage” jewelry which includes beautiful ornate lockets, handmade glass cameos or “Intaglios”, romantic filigree and pearls and so much more.

We have a wonderful selection of pieces available right now – just in time for Mother’s Day – come check them out while they last!

PS…We also just got loads of new Ollipop rings!!!!

Local Artist Spotlight:

I first met Lori Holcomb in 2008  – a customer of mine who is a friend of hers made the connection and told her Sparkle! needed her. She was SO RIGHT! When we met, I was immediately struck by the artistic nature of the jewelry Lori showed me as well as the vintage funky feel and every day wearability. The warm, antiqued brass in much of her work creates a versatile and distinct style and each piece is a one of a kind, unique work of art! And even better – the prices are really, really reasonable!

In her own words… “My entire life, I have loved creating unique and beautiful things & experimenting with just about anything I could get my hands on to express myself. I still dabble in drawing, painting and sewing as well but I have found a real passion in creating jewelry. It is one of the few pleasures in life that truly makes me satisfied and happy! I am also a perfectionist and strive to make things ‘just right’. I pour my heart and much effort into my designs and take great pride in the quality of my work. Lately, I am both fascinated and obsessed with brass. I strive to create beautiful pieces that have a vintage feel with a modern edge. I hope you enjoy my wonderful adornments and that wearing them will make you feel satisfied, happy & beautiful, too.”

We have some WONDERFUL new original pieces from Cherry Matador here at Sparkle! this week!! Be sure to check them out early for the best selection!
