spotlight artist: megan faulkner brown

I remember about four? five? years ago when my friend Megan said she had an idea for a business selling cupcakes and was going to call it The Sweet Tooth Fairy. Next thing I knew, yes, she DID have a business called the Sweet Tooth Fairy, but not only that, it was booming and the cupcakes and baked yummies were DIVINE.



Then the next thing I knew she was featured on Rachel Ray not once, but twice, and opening a shop in Provo. And now, less than a year later, she's opening her second shop. Megan is an artist with cake and flavors. She'll be demonstrating her mad skillz with fondant frosting at Spark on Friday.

spotlight artist: laura jarman

Laura Jarman is the owner of the FABULOUS Dear Lizzie in Highland, UT - one of the very best, most amazing and original stores in Utah


If you've never been you're in luck because Laura's going to be a demo artist at Spark. You're going to love her, Laura is the sweetest, most amazing person who just makes you feel important whenever you're around her. We love her so much.



plus -- they're going to be providing our lunch boxes on Saturday. YUM.

spotlight artist: rebecca mcallister

When Rebecca McAllister at Sassasfras sent over an example of what she'd like to create for Spark, the answer was an instant YES!! I'd use the words whimsical, retro, fun, bright, even quirky to describe the products that Sassifras offers. I can't wait for Rebecca to show up with her goodies at Spark....I'm going to be packing it in my basket tight. To see her blog, go to -- www.sassifras.typepad.com

Some of the fun goodies available over at Sassifras Lass



Here's what she's going to be sharing with us at Spark....

spotlight artist: jen sorensen

It was first at Craft Lake City in Salt Lake back in the summer that I first saw Jen Sorensen's work and was BLOWN. AWAY. In fact, I ran into Margie's girls, Brooke and Megan while I was there and we all talked about how amazing Jen's stuff was while we were all there.


She's a letterpress artist, a book binder and a printmaker. Her work is so haunting and delicate and subtle.




I feel so lucky that she agreed to be part of Spark. Mostly so that I could go and see what she does and see more of her beautiful work.


And I get to share that with you. :)

Keynote: Cassandra Christensen Barney

We're so excited to have Cassandra Barney as our keynote speaker!!!!!!!! (If i add more exclamation points it means I'm super extra excited!!!!!!)

Cassandra is an amazing artist and such a creative woman. Truthfully, Rhonna confided early on to us that she had a massive blog crush on Cass and her BLOG.


And....it gets better -- she's going to be doing some tiny tin paintings especially for Spark and will be offering them for sale in our General Store. Isn't it BEAUTIFUL and SPARKY!!



Let me show you what I mean....hold onto yourselves though cause she's gonna blow you away with her delicacy and her sensitivity with her subjects and her medium.
