When you visit our show, one of the neatest things is supporting small businesses who put in SO much hard work.

They develop their own product. Craft by hand. Pitch new ideas.

We love being part of their story and helping them grow. Join us in welcoming new vendors to the show lineup!

The Potted Cat
EZ Soaps
Mom's Last Nerve Bakery

You’ll find them at the convention center, full of their newest collections for shopping or restocking the home.

Come find them in November — see you at the lobby!

When we started Sparkle & Spruce, we had a clear picture in mind: a vendor show that felt intentional from the moment you walked in. We wanted vendors to feel supported, shoppers to feel excited, and every detail to reflect the heart behind what we do.

We believe the best events are built on real relationships, not just filled booths. We work hard to develop a one-of-a-kind experience that focuses on our values and ongoing support for vendors. For us, that means events that are intentional, well-organized, and designed to be interactive and give back to our broader community.

The core of what we do is community over competition, believing there is room for all of us to succeed and celebrate each other. We stand firm in the belief that there is room for all of us to learn and grow from one another.

After every show, we learn to be better. We innovate and come up with our own new ideas, determined to enrich the experience. These all come back to our core values:

Serving. Giving back. Showing up.

Those who have been with us know what we mean. For the new folks? Thank you for joining us too. We are looking ahead to our 2nd annual Sparkle & Spruce and we hope you’ll join us.

We’ve been so thankful to hear from our vendors who we now consider friends!

Let’s Hear From You #3 🫶

Meet Mangrum Manor Fiber & Fabric - your one stop shop for thoughtful gifts, decor & microwaveable comfort items.

Here’s what the owner, Shelly, had to say:

I had such a wonderful experience as a vendor at this event! It was incredibly well organized, had a great atmosphere, and created a welcoming experience for both vendors and customers.

Annabelle, the host, was wonderful to work with. She was generous with information, helpful throughout setup, and genuinely invested in making sure the vendors had a successful event. I especially appreciated the way she encouraged customers to visit the vendor spaces, which helped increase foot traffic and brought attention directly to the vendors.

I also really appreciate that these events are community-based and give back in a charitable way. Supporting local vendors while also supporting the community is something I strongly believe in and love being part of.

I would absolutely recommend these events to other vendors and shoppers. It’s clear that a lot of thought, effort, and heart goes into creating them!

Thank YOU, Mangrum Manor for the kind words! We’re so glad we got to connect & now have a new favorite business to support.

Find them on their etsy & Facebook to shop for the holidays!
