Sparkle-tastic birthday! Thanks! ✨ @SparkleByMonica

Uploaded May 2025 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

This is 52 so far. I’m thankful for all the good despite the many challenges. I’m hopeful for peace instead of what feels like a daily barrage of eeeeeeeeeekkkkkkkk! 🤯🤪 I know so many of you are feeling similarly, but as many of you have shown me across multiple platforms…we aren’t alone, even if we may feel that way. Thanks again for helping to uplift me so that I may continue to spread the sparkles!!! 💖✨

$Bridgerton Debut Celebration, @JesseJamesBeads Society Papers Bead Haul, #diamondoftheseason Contest Wednesday was such a blast getting an advance viewing of #bridgerton Season 3, episode 5! Whew! Im still reeling from a couple of moments, but so worth the sign up! I got lucky when a fellow TikToker, Riven, shared that you could RSVP to Netflix Tudum for their Debut Celebration - a red carpet and advance viewing. We also got to see episode 4 of part 1, as if we needed a reminder of where Colin left us. lol. I loved the excitement in the chat during the event and they highlighted one of my comments about Nicolas dress being sparkle-tastic!!!! I was so dazed, I couldnt snap a pic though. lol. Anyway, we were all asked NOT to relay anything in the Debut event until after everyone else could get access to part 2 episodes on Thursday, June 13th. So, I behaved. lol. I took off work that afternoon so I could prep my lunch as a tea party and got my @JesseJamesBeads ready for jewelry making fun while listening to certain parts of the interviews and such. Great day! Update: Blog post for contest entries: https://sparklebymonica.com/jesse-james-beads-bridgerton-jewelry-contest/ Due to all the excitement, I didnt get much jewelry made, but I plan to enter the #JesseJamesBeads #SocietyPapers #DiamondOfTheSeason contest once I complete some handmade designs. #NicolaCoughlan (Penelope) and #LukeNewton (Colin) may sporadically remain in the Bridgerton realm, from what I think I may have caught Luke saying on the carpet. Thats reassuring, since I was hoping they werent scrapping them to move on like with some of the previous stars during their season. Id love a spin off like Queen Charlotte, but if its only a few more times to keep an eye on their starting a family, etc...Ill take it. Surely with all the eyes on Polin and the stats they keep referencing Netflix, this will help to keep them in a few for Season 4. So, get ready for heat and hyperventilating, yall.
