Over the last few months, Elliott of Elliott's Jewelers - Huntsville, TX has been creating a little magic! The winners of the 3rd Annual Sketches to Sparkles Jewelry Design Contest finally got to see their drawings come to life — transformed into beautiful, one-of-a-kind keepsakes they can treasure for years to come! 💖
Open to all students ages 5–12 in Walker, San Jacinto, and Trinity Counties, the Sketches to Sparkles contest is held in conjunction with the All About Kids Expo - CASA , held each April. This year, nearly 200 talented young artists entered the contest, sharing their creative visions and the stories behind their designs for a chance to see their artwork turned into a special piece of jewelry.
The winners were announced last evening at the CASA office, where board members, staff, and families gathered to share in the excitement and celebrate two incredibly creative young artists! 🎉
Ani Harutyunyan, age 11, and Layla Monjaras, age 12, had reactions that truly said it all when they saw their finished pieces. 🥹✨ These talented young ladies should be so proud of their creativity and imagination!
Congratulations, Ani and Layla! We are so excited to see your sketches transformed into lasting treasures! 💎❤️
And be sure to keep an eye out for next year’s contest… your sketch may just inspire the next sparkle!
