Springfield-based event company Sparkle & Float is announcing the launch of its newest sister brand, Grain & Glow Studio, bringing custom-built event backdrops, marquee numbers, and display pieces to event professionals across the country.
Unlike traditional rental companies, Grain & Glow Studio is focused entirely on wholesale and direct-to-professional sales, offering handcrafted event structures designed to be owned, used, and reinvested into growing event businesses.
What makes this launch stand out isn’t just the product—it’s who’s building it.

Each piece is designed, engineered, and handcrafted in-house by the Grain & Glow team, including co-owner Kendra Pickett, who is often in the shop cutting, assembling, and finishing each product by hand. In an industry where much of the available inventory is mass-produced or imported, Grain & Glow Studio offers something different: locally built, professional-grade event structures created with intention, precision, and real-world event experience in mind.
The result is a collection of products—including foldable arch backdrops, treat walls, and illuminated marquee numbers—that are not only visually impactful, but also designed for durability, portability, and repeated use in high-demand event environments.
As a woman-owned business, Grain & Glow continues to expand in a way that reflects its core values: hands-on creativity, high standards, and a commitment to doing things differently in the event industry. By keeping both design and fabrication under one roof, the team is able to maintain full control over quality while offering event professionals products that are thoughtfully engineered for real production work.
With the launch of Grain & Glow Studio, the company is extending its reach beyond client events and into the hands of the decorators, stylists, and rental companies who bring celebrations to life every day.
