Welcome!!
We're so glad you're here! We are a family of artists who call our home our studios as well!! Why not, right??!! We work with a variety of styles and arts. This GNG logo was created by the patriarch of our family! The spark that began it all happened back in 2021. The idea of starting a small resin business. Unfortunately, the next few years brought lots of trials for us. But what becomes of us when trials happen?? It strengthens and gives us knowledge. It helps us grow. It helps us shine! As life evolved over those next few years so did the idea of the business. The spark from 2021 eventually blossomed into the creation of GNG Studios in 2024. What we do, we do in honor of JoAnn. We hope to carry on what JoAnn stood for and share her "glitter n glow" through our artistry. We hope you enjoy our creations while you're here and will pass some "glitter and glow" on to others!
JoAnn
Is why we are here! As we mentioned, everything about Glitter N Glow Studios is to honor the memory of JoAnn. She is the inspiration for our name, the inspiration for some of our art. JoAnn was so sweet and loving to everyone she knew. She loved children and wasn't able to have any of her own. She had a true love of the Savior and knew that her life would continue on the other side. Despite her trials, she still continued to "glitter n glow" in her own way and passed on that sparkle and shine to others around her. She enjoyed wearing this jewelry. She enjoyed the make up and fashion. She loved feeling glamorous! Shouldn't we all feel that way about ourselves??!! We deserve it!!!
Jewelry! So much jewelry!
Where do we even start??!!
To be honest:
-The original idea for this site did not involve JoAnn's jewelry! It was only going to be for our resin mold creations! But, JoAnn collected a lot of cool jewelry and other crafty things!!
-Taking on JoAnn's jewelry collection has been overwhelming. There is so much of it!! There is still so much going on behind the scenes to get every piece ready for this website.
-We have NO IDEA where she purchased most of this jewelry at! We stick to what we know. The silver collection was most likely purchased at Jewelry TV. JoAnn also loved shopping at Claire's Boutique, Wish, and Amazon.
Our Resin products.....
Are all inspired by JoAnn and could contain a piece or two of the craft items that we've found in the family craft collection! We use epoxy, UV, and powdered resin. Each is fun in its own way!! And they also have their issues! Resin gets soft in sunlight! Resin Crete is breakable!! But we just have so much fun creating these molds!! We use a variety of decor to go in our resin such as: mica powders, unused make-up powders, glitters, alcohol inks, craft beads, crystals, dried flowers. pretty much anything we find that could be used in the mold!
