INTRODUCING...TILT-A-WHIRL COLLECTION



Garish carousel horses spin and swoon in their tattered pastel regalia. Tilt-a-Whirl is a love affair with the carnival in all its chipped and rusted glory. Swoops and dives that leave you gasping for breath, mile-high candy floss, and melting sno-cones converging in a dusty summer sunset. Folk art beads, micro embroideries, and candy striped components pair with the gorgeous coral-pink of rare Padparadscha crystal. Come take a walk through the noisy midway and steal a kiss in the wild fantastico lighting.

TEN YEARS OF SPARKLE EVENT; MILANO ITALY, 2006

 Barbie & Hello Kitty collaboration displays greeted the guests.....

With the legendary Italian designer ELIO FIORUCCI and guests of the party

 In the gallery we showcased pieces from our first sparkling ten years of TARINA TARANTINO, I made the brooch in the shadowbox when I was 17.....


The newspaper had a beautiful story about our "super party" the next day.
