AN AMBIENT SHOPPING EVENT

 Jenny Mills Jewellery has combined with Bosso & Boo Lounge Bar to offer you the opportunity to savour some delicious nibbles created especially for this event by the wonderfully talented culinary wizard, chef Gareth ...buy a wine or a coffee and relax with the mellow sounds from Jazz Duo, Siobahn O'Rourke & Locky Court...

While you are totally relaxed and enjoying the ambiance, the opportunity will be available to view the latest in the collection of hand made designer jewellery from jennymillsjewellery...

This is the most relaxed way we could think of to fulfil a shopping requirement at this time of year! All pieces on view will be available for sale on the day, cash, cheque or EFTPOS or direct deposit is welcome.

To complete a very pleasurable day, we suggest that you give your significant other (designated driver) a call to join you for dinner at this beautiful restaurant before you head off home with jewels and no dinner to cook!

Yes this is all just 2 weeks before Christmas!! Perfect time to have some time out... invite your friends and let's have a chilled out Sunday!

please RSVP to Jo at Bosso & Boo on 62240124 to confirm your and your guests attendance on the day and also to book your table for afterwards.
Jo and I are looking forward to sharing this Sunday with you.

My new and very fresh website is being built!

I am so excited about my new website...
I have loved my old site for four years... I loved the dark intrigue and the cosy feel of it!  I have never loved the way you had to go to up to 4 pages deep to get what you wanted though... not so easy to navigate and somewhat overcomplicated at times.

Well...

Not any more!  I have been lucky enough to meet a great young web designer and developer... Dominic Whittle...  who has performed some kind of magic on my new site!!!

The brief was fresh and fun to visit, but VERY easy to navigate and fun and very safe to actually shop in...
I can't wait to show you through it, but in the mean time Dominic has posted a sneak preview on his blog. just link through for a glimpse of what is to come.

I will be promoting the new site with some fun when it is up and running, so stay posted!

I would like to send a shout out to Pete Saunders, a fabulous graphic designer, visual communicator and video artist... working out of Hobart,  thanks for finding Dom for me Pete!

The Foundation Collection explained

The Foundation Collection





foundation collection 
foun•da•tion  |foun’da sh ən | noun
 (also foundation garment) a woman’s supporting undergarment, such as a girdle.http://jennymills.cart.net.au/store/foundation-collection/foundation-necklaces/

The inside story
The foundation Collection was designed to meet all your needs..
These pieces are designed to be put on first, wear all the time and layer with your other jewellery... 
they look pretty by themselves and fabulous with most other pieces of jennymillsjewellery.
Just like foundation garments, what you put on first affects how you feel all day... :o)

The packaging is also a carefully designed and significant part of the foundation collection.
A cute little round tin with a clear lid contrasts with the very beautiful swiss lace draw string gift pouch inside.  The idea is to emphasise the simplicity and quality of each piece, while showing you that nothing can take away from the appeal of these pretty pieces!
The perfect gift!  
The complete package is easy to post... suits everybody... very affordable and yet still very appropriate to the person who has everything... else!
Very popular for the bride as a gift to her special attendants on her big day...










Sterling silver or gold filled very fine snake chain support your necklace and bracelet... flexible and light to allow your swarovski crystal feature to hang beautifully and sparkle with no distractions!
The clasp is a fine quality sterling or gold filled trigger clasp, also light enough to stay at the back... and sit nicely when worn. 
The crystals are superb swarovski crystal in neutral colours to go with anything and anybody!   There are several exciting styles available... please refer to the website to choose which style you would like... hover your mouse over this page to find the many links to my web site...

The earrings are my favourite... 
I think we all need a pair of these... for work, for everyday, and even for night... these are the perfect foundation piece!  The fine quality  earwires are available in sterling silver or gold filled and are small and comfortable in the ears... short and unassuming... perfect! 

I wear these pieces, my beautiful daughters all wear them and many of you already wear them as well!  They have been bought for the wedding party, as a gift from the bride to her special girls...   for birthday gifts to a special friend, work colleague or that difficult to buy for friend.  These are a perfect idea for the gift cupboard... there when needed for Christmas or that special day in the life of someone dear to you... perfect for graduation!

MY OFFER TO YOU...

I will be looking for you at "the market"













JennyMillsJewellery will again be at "the Market" on Sunday...  love to see you there.

I will have some new pieces to view,   and also some nice new cuff links... at a very reasonable price and packaged for him!
As you have come to expect there will be my special little box of earrings to tempt you... these are simple and perfect for every day... made from sterling silver and gems, swarovski crystal, cubic zirconium  or pearl.  At only $20 it would be a good idea to buy some of these to pop in the "gift" draw for Christmas and for birthdays throughout the year.  They include a pretty gift bag so they look great and are secure and together in your jewellery draw.
As well will I will have some amazing and very unusual cocktail rings and leather cuff bracelets,  designed for the less conservative buyer!! 

So even though it’s Dad’s day on Sunday… why not pop in for a bit of a browse and see what you can find to top off your day!

Introduce yourself to me if you have read my blog or are a friend of mine on Facebook… I’d love to put a face to the name…    :o)






the market is held at the Masonic Temple no. 3 Sandy Bay Rd (directly opposite St David's Park) Hobart, Tasmania 7000

For the Fathers


Ok... so I made some crystal cuff links for our men for Father's Day... 

you know I don't have much for the boys on my website and thought they might look handsome in some slick but sparkly cuff links with their crisp white dinner shirts...


well...


props to the girls! they came up with some amazing ideas of how they could wear these cuff links themselves... hahaaa I'm impressed and I'd love to see some photos girls!!!




  

Here's hoping the Father's out there do in fact manage to at least get to borrow some of these cuff links from their partners...


Me and You and Bosso & Boo

JennyMillsJewellery and Bosso and Boo Restaurant and Lounge Bar will be combining to create an ambient shopping experience for you and your friends.

Jo will welcome you with the smell of coffee and delicious finger food while the option to buy a glass of wine or a hot drink will enhance your afternoon.

A Winter's Ring Exhibition

Tomorrow night is the opening night for a fun and different Exhibition in Hobart.   I'm excited to see what is put out for us to see! 

 A Winter's Ring!!!  What a great concept... something to brighten up winter in the world of Girl and Art...  This event will run from the 14th till the 27th of July at  Rebecca Roth & Cube Gallery,  Salamanca Arts centre Hobart.    I have designed three rings for this exhibition, which I've called "Messy chic".    They are vintage brass and vintage patterned fabrics and swarovski crystals and filigree and black chain... heavy, eclectic, messy and fun!!!!   I'll hold off on the photos until after the opening night to keep you in suspense, but I had a tiny peak today and I can't wait to have a closer look at some of the fabulous rings in the cabinets already!!!  Tasmania has some great jewellery designers and artisans.
In conjunction with this fun event is   Rainy Days 2010 , this exhibition is being put together by Jemima Boyer and is a novel display of no holds barred art designed and displayed on 10x10cm plywood blocks... the mind boggles!  I am definitely going to go and check these out!
So from tomorrow night onwards the place for some winter amusement and shopping will be  Shop 8, Salamanca Arts Centre, Salamanca Place. 
Best of luck with that girls, I am looking forward to it...
