Category: Oh My Sparkle!

A world of sparkle awaits…

I didn’t always embrace my sparkle – in fact it was hidden deep in, insecurity, fear, pride and even sadness and depression. But one day the layers of mud, dust and blemish was washed away – making me a new creation with a sparkly identity. From that moment on, I was rooted in the fact that I am deeply loved and handcrafted to be the sparkly person that I became and now am. Through being rooted and grounded in love – my life became one fun, whimsy adventure. Signup for a sparkle life – it will be a ride beyond this lifetime.

I believe in sparkles. I believe that you shouldn’t chase the quaffle if you see the snitch. I believe that fire is catching and if we burn, then everyone burns with us (in a good sparkly way).
