The Waterford Artist is a Harbinger of Santa!

Have you noticed how fast 2010 has flown by?  You know Santa will be here soon when the Waterford Artist arrives at Nielsens!  Sean O'Donnell will visit Nielsens Saturday, November 13th to help Santa get ready for the big day!    Sean has been a Waterford Artist since 1971.  He will sign Waterford selections and will personalize with special dates. Nielsens will then wrap for free and deliver in Tulsa.  Worldwide shipping is available at Nielsens. Santa loves Nielsens' mailing service.  His back is not what it used to be, we hear.

"On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me"...Waterford! This is the last year of the Waterford Twelve Days of Christmas toasting flutes.  I am really excited about the Twelve Days Collection for this year!  There is a set of double old fashion glasses, a wonderful picture frame  (perfect gift for every family), and a Partridge in a Pear Tree biscuit barrel that is beautifully cut!  All of the wonderful Twelve Days of Christmas items will only be available until the end of 2010.

It will be colorful in Santa's bag this year!  Waterford has the prettiest sapphire vase and compote and tall flutes.  The 2010 Waterford collection has lots of red crystal and lime green and amethyst.  Of course there is lots of clear also and new contemporary styles and new art glass!

Nielsens has carried Waterford ever since my dad spotted the first pitcher Waterford imported to the USA in the 1960's.  He had a great eye for beauty and quality. Nielsens and Waterford has a great partnership.  We are happy to have our annual Signing Event on Nielsens' anniversary weekend.  Nielsens will be 64 years old. Waterford started producing crystal again in 1950.  The very popular Lismore pattern was designed in 1952.  If you have not seen all the new Lismore pieces, you are missing something great.  I especially like the Lismore Essence large red wine glasses!  I know that my dad, Arthur Nielsen, would be thrilled to know that Waterford has progressed to become the most sought after crystal in the world...Santa's favorite, I am sure!

Our dog, Charlie, is on my lap helping with this blog.  I think he wants to be sure that I mention that you can shop on www.NielsensGifts.com and still get your Waterford signed!  We affectionately call Nielsens' web site, Charlie.  

Charlie always likes a treat... So for reading this blog ... Have a treat! Mention SANTA SHIPPING at Nielsens or enter "santashipping" in coupon code box on www.NielsensGifts.com and receive free shipping in the USA on your Waterford Gifts from Nielsens from now until November 15th, 2010.  I hope Nielsens and Waterford will help you get ready for Santa!

I appreciate you!  Thanks for helping Nielsens become a 64 year old business!  Andrea Nielsen

P. S.  Hope to see you at Nielsens Waterford Signing Event Sat. Nov. 13th and at our pre selection party Fri. eve, Nov. 12th!

It Started with an Angel...a Lladro Angel!

Nielsens is known for their huge selection of Lladro fine porcelain.  It all started with an angel in the early 1960s!  My mother, Dorothy Nielsen, chose a darling group of angels 50 years ago! She was at market in Dallas when a representative asked my mom "Mrs. Nielsen, do you think your customers in Nielsens would enjoy these porcelain angels made by the Lladro brothers?"  She said, "yes!, because they have personality!"  She was right- they loved them and...You will today,too! These fun angels are in Nielsens store and on www.NielsensGifts.com today! I believe these angels along with the Waterford Lismore pattern, Waterford Colleen pattern, and a variety of Lalique art pieces are the only items that are still popular at Nielsens today that were popular 50 years ago!  They really have stood the test of time! One of the angels is praying and is great for Baptism, first Communion and baby gifts. Two of the angels - my mother used to say "I think they have been in a little mischief!" 

This year, to commemorate the wonderful angel story, Lladro has created a fabulous limited edition angel for our Signing event, Oct 16th!  This very special Lladro sculpture is called "Cherub of Love".  It has  delicate adornments and captures the human emotion of LOVE.  The large angel is crowned with finely executed wildflowers. The angel is plucking daisy petals..."loves me, love me not, loves me!"

You may have this fabulous creation signed by Rosa Lladro at Nielsens Oct 16th, 2010!  Nielsens would love for you to come and meet Rosa from 2 to 4 Sat, Oct. 16th, but if you cannot, we will have your Lladro selections signed and personalized and sent to you or your gift recipients! We will enclose your card and gift wrap and send all your gifts from Nielsens!  We make sending love easy!

Lladró was established by the brothers Juan, José and Vicente Lladró in 1953 in Valencia, Spain. Since then, Lladro has undergone an amazing metamorphosis from an artisan workshop to a huge studio that holds a presence in over 120 countries and is at the forefront of contemporary porcelain design.  Lladro employs many artists including quite a few with physical challenges.  My husband and I are also interested in the Center for Individuals with Physical Challenges here in Tulsa, therefore this employment strategy makes us happy!  If you mention the Center at time of your purchase, Nielsens will donate 10% of your purchase to the Center!

Nielsens Gifts was founded by Art and Dorothy Nielsen in Tulsa 64 years ago.  Nielsens is now owned by their daughter, Andrea Nielsen, and has been at the Plaza, 81^st and Lewis for 16 years.  The Nielsen family business and the Lladro family business have been associated for 50 years!

Charlie, our dog, really likes the Lladro angels, but is especially drawn to the wonderful dog pieces Lladro makes today. Our daughter Annika's  favorite piece in the entire Nielsens store is Lladro's Can't Wait!

We can not wait for Rosa Lladro's visit to Nielsens Oct 16th!  We hope you are excited to choose some beautiful Lladros to have signed and personalized!  If you cannot decide which ones to get, you can not go wrong with the angels!

Mention this blog and my gift to you will be free shipping and a Nielsens' gift certificate with a value of 10% of  your purchase. This gift is available until Oct. 9th!

Love to you and your family, Andrea Nielsen

Variety is the Spice of Life! Nielsens Gifts is not copied anywhere!

Nielsens Gifts - An Original... One of a Kind!

Have you noticed when visiting another city that all the stores are the same ones you have in your home town?  I remember when it was so much fun to shop in a special store unique to Chicago, a special one in Dallas, one only found in New York. Now all of those stores are in many cities-but they have lost their personality.  The owners are not individuals, but big conglomerates.  The stores have prestigious names, but many out source their work and are mere shadows of what made them famous. Big business was never Nielsens Gifts' goal. Nielsens loves knowing their wonderful customers in Tulsa and on the phone and on NielsensGifts.com. That is the way Nielsens' founders planned it.  

Founded in 1946 at the edge of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

I have been thinking so much about my parents, Dorothy and Arthur Nielsen.  They had a vision for their gift store 64 years ago.  They did not want a chain of stores. They wanted only one very unique business.  The store, Nielsens, started in a rental house in Tulsa.  They lived in the back and sold their wedding gifts in the living room and my dad made lamps of customers lovely vases and figurines and my mom made the hand sewn silk lampshades.  They wanted to bring beautiful decorative things to Tulsa from all over the world. Lovely things had not been easy to find during world war two.  They began bringing china and decorative accessories to help fulfill peoples dream of peace and prosperity.

New merchandise comes in almost every day!

I worked all weekend in Nielsens Gifts cleaning and doing some new displays of Julia Knight Serveware and Lladro and Kinzig Design Lamps.   We are excited to have Rosa Lladro visiting Nielsens on Oct. 16th. I got to thinking how much fun I was having and that there is not another store in the entire world with our exact mix of merchandise!  Although the choices are now made by myself,my husband, my daughters, Doug, George, Rhonda, Sadie, other Nielsens' sales associates and by our customers-not by my parents, we still abide by Art and Dorothy's  philosophy that Nielsens carry all price ranges of gifts and objects of art, but of only items of the highest quality!

Please visit our one and only Nielsens Gifts in Tulsa and on the web. Our son, Greg, designed our site and George works night and day on our web site.  There is not another like it! NielsensGifts.com.   There is no "out sourcing" at Nielsens!  

We are also available to talk with you on the phone 298-9700 or 1-800-665-1233 to help you find the perfect gift or china or flatware or crystal or home accessory.  We are happy to special order for you.  We gift wrap your selection for free and deliver in Tulsa and ship all over the world! We have Bridal & Gift Registry. Please let Nielsens be your unique gift store. Please let us be your personal shopper whether you need a special birthday, wedding or anniversary gift or if you need special corporate gifts, we will be honored to help!

A Gift from Nielsens is Treasured Always!

My parents always said..."A Gift from Nielsens is Treasured Always!"  They helped people send and give love to their friends and family through beautiful gifts - just as we do today.

As my gift to you for reading my thoughts...mention this blog and receive 10% off your selection - good through Sept 14, 2010 ! On NielsensGifts.com - please use code: blog at check out for your savings. Thanks for being a friend of Nielsens Gifts.  Love to you and your family, Andrea Nielsen

Invite Friends and ask..."What would Julia Do?"

I am having about 20 people for dinner tonight...I am asking "what would Julia do?"  Julia Knight, that is!  I think she would keep it simple.  She would start the party with wine from her new casually elegant Argento wine glasses and cheese and crackers and nuts.    I think I will put two or three cheeses on the large Julia Knight Octagonal Tray with some grapes and crackers on the tray.  I will use the new Classic Cheese Serving Set with the cheeses for easy cutting.  Shelled pistashcio nuts will be in the Julia Knight Pagoda Bowl. 

I think Julia Knight would then present the salmon that my husband will bar-b-que on my 25" JK mother of pearl handled tray ( my very favorite Julia Knight piece, by the way!).  The salad will look great in my Julia Knight 15" Peony Bowl.  It will be so easy- a pre washed bag salad with some cut up onions and mandarin oranges and toasted almonds. I have the matching servers-yeah! The chicken that my husband will bar-b-que will be great on the new oval platter. ...Easy so far!

I will steam the broccoli and serve it family style in the classic Julia Knight bowl.  I wish her new classic serving spoon and meat fork were here!  They will arrive at Nielsens later this week - can't wait!  Rolls will be served in my mother's bread tray (I think Julia would be okay with that sentimental item!)

For dessert I found some frozen fruit smoothies that all you do is add milk in blender and serve in an elegant glass- I plan to use my Waterford Lismore balloon wines for the smoothies.  If I had enough Julia Knight glasses, I think the smoothies would be great in those too!  I am adding to my collection of both Julia Knight Argento and Waterford glasses for every gift giving occasion!  I am giving two or four at a time to my husband until I have 18 or 20!  I learned that trick from my mother!

I will let you know how this "five minutes to fabulous" (Julia Knight's philosophy) party goes. Actually, you can find out by asking any Nielsens Gifts' employee.  They are the guests for the dinner!  I hope they have fun and I hope it is as easy as I think it will be!  It is so much fun using my Julia Knight Serveware. I just love to have people over so I can play with it!  And I hope everyone from Nielsens has fun!  I appreciate them all so much and I think each one of them is a wonderful person with many talents!  Don't you just love them? I do!  

 I appreciate you for reading and for continuing to enjoy giving gifts (even to yourself!) from Nielsens!  As my parents always said; "A gift from Nielsens is treasured always!"

With love, Andrea

Kinzig Design Lamps are big hit with Nielsens Gifts' Customers

The Kinzig Design Lamp Artists

Susan Kinzig can be found designing in her San Francisco studio with her dog Mia. She received her degree from Kent State University and worked 7 years as a graphic designer. Combining her knowledge of design with her mechanical ability she began her career as a jewelry designer. Building upon her knowledge of metalwork and design, Susan expanded her creative outlook to include lighting.

She teamed up with her sister-in-law, Caryn Kinzig, to form Kinzig Design Home. They called upon other artists to blow colorful glass for the lamps. While Susie produces lamps in California, Caryn works on shades in Philadelphia.

The Kinzig Design Lamps

Traditional lighting with a twist! As Susan Kinzig & Caryn Kinzig design each lamp, their goal is to create beautiful and distinctive lighting that will endure the test of time to become the heirlooms of tomorrow. Each lamp is made from solid brass and copper elements that are finished using processes that will never chip or discolor.

Kinzig Design lamps incorporate highly designed, proprietary elements with vibrant hand blown glass. The glass is blown to Kinzig Design's color and shape specifications by two well regarded glass studios.

The richly colored shades are sewn from embroidered silks and other elegant fabrics and topped with their distinctive finials that enhance these uniquely crafted pieces.

Nielsens Gifts Discovers Kinzig Design Lamps 

Andrea Nielsen, President and Owner of Nielsens Gifts, discovered these beautiful lamps on her last day of Atlanta Gift Market in January 2009. This is where a number of new exciting products have been found by Nielsens Gifts over their 64 year history. Andrea's father, Arthur Nielsen, "found" some crystal from Ireland in a dark corner lower shelf of a Dallas Market Showroom many years ago and thought he might be able to sell... it was Waterford Crystal and Nielsens Gifts was the first store in the state of Oklahoma to carry Waterford.

Andrea Nielsen loves art and small business.  She was stopped by the beauty of these artful lamps and had an immediate connection to Kinzig Design when she found that the Kinzig sisters design the lamps together. She knew Nielsens was the place for these works of art because when her parents started Nielsens in 1946 - they started the store by selling their wedding gifts and making lamps.  Her father, Arthur Nielsen, made the lamps from customer's heirloom vases, etc. and her mother, Dorothy Nielsen, hand made the silk shades for each lamp. Andrea ordered a selection of lamps and Nielsens' customers love them!

All Kinzig Design Lamps Have Names

Roxy (a best seller) is a 29" table lamp with violet and blue colored blown glass pieces with an embroidered silk taffeta shade.Anna has a large carmel colored opaque blown glass with blue/carmel embroidered duppioni. One of Andrea's favorites is  Maggie, a 29" table lamp with a green "diamond" shaped blown glass with a green silk embroidered shade with floral / vine design and a double leaf finial. There are 17 Kinzig Design floor lamps and 53 table lamps to select from on NielsensGifts.com website. We always have several in stock and if not the one you want, they usually ship in one to two weeks. And, shipping / delivery is currently free on all Kinzig lamp purchases.  

One of the newest floor lamps is Benny... with green and salmon colored blown glass; vintage fuchsia colored embroidered silk shade with beaded trip. When you look at the Kinzig Lamps on NielsensGifts.com, click on the images until you get the largest photo; the image quality is almost as good as seeing the lamp itself.

We think you will be as impressed as we have been when you discover these unique, high quality and absolutely beautiful lamps. You will want to light your home with these beautiful treasures!

Maybe someday they will name a lamp for Art or Dorothy Nielsen!

On November 11th, Nielsens Gifts will celebrate its 64th year in business. We are proud of that!

Red, White and Blue!

 I am thinking of Red White and Blue because of the 4th of July; however, those   colors in serving pieces are so versatile when you think about it.  I just love thinking of a party and using my Julia Knight serving pieces.  Julia Knight now comes in Red(Pomegranate), White (Snow) and Blue (Azure).  You will use the Pomegranate for Christmas and Valentine's Day and the Snow everyday and the Azure is just beautiful anytime as well!  Try mixing the Saffron with the other colors for a summer sizzle! 

Let's just have fun having friends over to celebrate!  Birthdays, Our Country, Anniversaries, Sunday, summer, New Babies, Friendship-anything! Why wait to celebrate?  Just call or go to Nielsens for your Julia Knight serving ware and new glassware and get easy fixings and invite your friends for a party!  Have fun!  

Love to you from Andrea and all your friends at www.NielsensGifts.com ! 

P. S. - on a sad personal note...Doug's dad, Herb Hartson,  passed away and the service celebrating his life will be Sat.,July 3, at 11 at Joy Lutheran Church in Tulsa.

Seize The Day!

Is it just me, or is time flying by?  It seems that weeks are going by like days used to.  Then when people are having very difficult times, it makes you stop to think even more - hey, better Seize the Day!  This is not a dress rehersal, after all.  So why is it so easy to get caught up in the "have tos" and miss the important moments.  Great reminders are the Motteheda jewelry dish (food safe, too) for $35. that says "Time flies, Let Friendship stay".  Or the Match pewter box for $125. or smaller $95. that says "Carpe Diem".  Inside "Seize the Day".

We all need to celebrate our friendships and charish the moments.  Dear Ava who is part of the Nielsen family has had a huge loss in her family and Doug's father remains in the hospital.  So many of you know Doug as a very upbeat person-"Mr. Party" at Nielsens. This is a very difficult time for him.  My prayers are with Ava, Doug and Doug's dad and their families. 

Spring is a great time to get outside with friends and enjoy nature.  It is fun to send a friend a bit of nature to keep all year as a beautiful reminder of spring and God's work.  I really like the flowers and birds by Andrea by Sadek.  They are very well done in procelain at very affordable gift prices. Nielsens will be happy to send a beautiful Hummingbird and peonies or Hummingbird and morning glories anywhere with your message to your friend to say you care.  Just call Nielsens anytime for great help in choosing just the right friendship gift!  298-9700 or 800-665-1233.

Andrea by Sadek porcelain single flowers that can be used decoratively or for place cards or menu holders are just $5.!

Sending a Julia Knight floral bowl is fun too.  They start at just $27.95 and come in lots of pretty colors.Great for candy or dip or nuts! 

Just browse www.NielsensGifts.com for all the sizes and colors of Julia Knight's selectiion.  For graduation gifts, my pick is:  
Julia Knight's beautiful frames- choose a great color.  For wedding gifts choose a lovely white enameled frame.  Julia Knight frames come in 3 sizes- 4X6, 5X7 and 8X10.

Sending love with a gift is fun and easy at Nielsens.  We are still a small family run store.  We care about you and your friends.  We want to get to know you and find just the right gift for each occasion.  Julia Knight now has great pieces in gold- she calls it toffee and silver- platnium which are perfect for 50th and 25th wedding anniversary gifts.
Did you know that Nielsens delivers in Tulsa and ships anywhere in the world?  Did you know that we gift wrap for Free?  Tell all of your friends about us too, please.  If you want to have a party for your friends at Nielsens, call and talk with us about it!  You can also shop and benefit your favorite charity- just ask!

Diane at Nielsens is planning a Girl Friend Party- watch for that!  Diane and Doug always make a party fun! Pictured is Julia Knight's new Rasberry Champagne Flute.  Perfect for a girlfriend party!

Please "Seize the Day" -today! Celebrate your friendships!  Enjoy www.NielsenGifts.com George at Nielsens works on it constantly.  Erin helps too by updating our Nielsens' Bride's selections.  Please take a look often.  We receive something new everyday!  We all appreciate you!

With love, Andrea Nielsen
