Maybe I'm confused about what you're looking for but there are sparklers for sale all over the internet. ???

Oh, thanks, I didn't even think of buying them online! smh See, sparklers have only been legal in Georgia for a couple of years and we usually have to run across the Alabama line to buy any.

Our local Dollar Store has all kinds of glowing items (bracelets, necklaces, objects) that are rather neon, but are safer than anything you have to light so little ones can be involved.

When I make the trip to my house, I pass a few thousand fireworks stands. I'll check a few out for you, if you'd like.

A relative had a gorgeous, Pinterest-kind-of wedding recently. Everything was stunning except -- her colors were yellow and gray. Who does that flatter? It was almost difficult to look at.

Yellow and grey has been quite popular in the past year.

EWWW. Nobody looks good in yellow.

I was in a blue and yellow wedding and she chose yellow dresses over blue. It's true: very few people (if any at all) look good in head to toe yellow. Not one of the bridesmaids did, but that also might have been the dresses which I was not a fan of (think crochet top plus pleated skirt all in one dress).

I went to another blue and yellow wedding (this one was two WVU fans) and the girls got to wear blue dresses with yellow shoes. That looked very cute.

I do like the blue and yellow combo together: I think it's very pretty and both weddings were lovely.

I don't care for yellow, but I'm that one person who can wear it well. I didn't realize it myself until my then-fiance said, "the pictures with you wearing yellow are all the ones you look best in." Totally surprised me - but true.

On the other hand, I look terrible in grey!

It was the yellow paired with the gray that did me in!

Yeah - the colors don't seem to work for me, either. Maybe on a weather graphic?
