Summer Flowers- Friends- Family- Fun!!!

Summer flowers are in abundance- even Black Eyed Susans, Crape Myrtle and Sunflowers will look elegant in beautiful Waterford, Simon Pearce, Julia Knight or your grandmothers vases. I am having fun pulling out all my vases of all different sizes and shapes and making an arraignment on my dining table. Try it- it is fun! May I also suggest that you get out your grandmother or great grandmother's doilies and runners or tablecloths that she spent countless fun hours creating. Touch them, think about her and then put those cherished heirlooms in your display! This may be the moment that you have been saving them for! Now go to the yard and fill the vases with flowers in a casual way.

If you want to send a friend a gift or need a lift yourself consider a fun vase from Simon Pearce chelsea collection or Julia Knight's new vase with the raspberry color inside or a new green vase from Waterford. Nielsens Gifts has them all and more! Gift wrap, delivery and shipping too. Nielsens makes gift giving and home entertaining easy and fun!!!

Crystal Care Tips

Fine crystal stemware and fine glass stemware are so beautiful and require little care...but some care!  The difference between crystal and glass is typically that the crystal recipe contains some lead oxide and fine glassware does not.  Yet both can be crystal clear!  Waterford is fine crystal.  Moser is fine glass.   Simon Pearce is fine glass. Julia Knight is wonderful Italian glass.  All four of these fine glass choices are hand made, mouth blown. The top choices for Nielsens' brides are Waterford Lismore Essence for formal and Moser for bar ware and Julia Knight for casual elegance!  Simon Pearce will be a sure choice for many also- it is brand new at Nielsens!  The bowls, vases and pitchers are in Nielsens showroom now.  Stemware will be there soon!

TIP: Most stemware is chipped at the sink faucet.  Get a plastic sprayer that has some movement rather than a ridged metal faucet. It will be worth it to make the change!

TIP: I also prefer to wash my own crystal rather than have help from friends and relatives after the party.  If you have a ceramic sink, put a rubber mat in the bottom of the sink or use a plastic dishpan in the sink. Next time you need a new sink, consider choosing stainless steel because those have some give and will help save your stems and china!

IDEA:If you have had all clear crystal for years and want to update, consider choosing a large new wine glass for white wine and a large round bowled one for red wine.  If your pattern is in Waterford, choose either Lismore or Araglin Essence wines or Coleen Encore wines.  Another way to update your formal glassware is to add a splash of color!  Waterford has some beautiful colored champagnes and wines! You can have a different dessert like the fun raspberry Julia Knight cocktail glass!

RECIPE: For dessert just get Yoplait frozen yogurt smoothie in a bag, add milk and mix in blender and serve in these fabulous Julia Knight cocktail glasses with a spoon- it will be a hit and only takes a minute!  Yeah!

IDEA: It is really fun to buy a different pattern of each liqueor glass and display them on a lovely new Julia Knight Tray.  Your guests will be wowed by their beauty and will have fun choosing their glass to use to enjoy their after dinner drink.  The added benefit is your guests will easily recognize which glass is theirs!  Moser makes a set of liqueors - each a different pattern.  These used to be used as salesmen's samples to show stores all the different beautiful patterns available.  It is also fun to let friends and relatives know that you are accumulating different liqueor glasses- they will enjoy selecting for you for the next gift they buy for you!  Sometimes at Nielsens we will have some "one left" pattern at a special savings!

IDEA: Moser Pebbles old fashions are a great updated choice.  They come in 8 colors and just look cold and refreshing and eveyone has a different color or buy 2 of each and each couple gets their own color!  Very fun for a party!

Don't you love having friends over?  We want to help make it fun and easy!

TIP: Clean, dust free and spot free crystal is beautiful!  I like washing mine by hand and hand drying- it is really fun and worth the effort!

I plan to give tips in each of my blogs so please stay tuned!  If you have questions about crystal and china, please email me at [email protected].  Please also tell me what subjects you wish for me to cover in upcoming blogs!

I appreciate you!  Need a gift?  Want something to boost your spirits?  Please visit www.NielsensGifts.com ! You will find the perfect, fun things!   Call us too!

Market 2011 Brings New Exciting Gifts and Home Decor to Nielsens!

I cannot remember a more exciting market!  The products were fresh, the buyers in great moods and Doug was always ready with a funny quip! Doug, George and I were in easy agreement to bring many new and some contemporary new lines to you at Nielsens.

Vagabond is a new line filled with nature inspired wood and metal serving items - even a cow and pail sugar and creamer and shell and coral shaped serving spoons!  Vagabond will have the perfect gift for the person who has everything. There are great things for those with a lake, beach or mountain home!

We love the elegant simplicity of our new Simon Pearce bowls and vases.  We are thinking they will be great for Valentine's Day and Mother's Day.  Simon Pearce will even engrave your special saying on the rim of a beautiful clear bowl for you!  We ordered one with XOXO all the way around!  Brides will love the Simon Pearce stemware too. This beautiful glass is made in America!

Table Art is a wonderful handmade in America art items for your table.  Napkin rings, serving spoons, and salad servers in wonderful shapes of natural leaves and flowers.  They also have a lovely dogwood frame for mom!

Faye and Annika's new Gourmet room at Nielsens will have some wonderful new baking pans that the girls love using.  God mother, Lucia had given them one that they make garden bug shaped muffins in- now they bring them to you!  There are also pans to bake heart shaped cakes for Valentine's Day! They have also added the best Vanilla in the world in big pretty bottles!  And our family loves Door County Wisconsin - so we have added Door County Gourmet coffee!  Hope you will like their great flavors too!

Wooden salad bowls will make great wedding gifts!    Our new very natural bowls handmade from reclaimed wood will also be great gifts for the man in your life!  Nambe also brings to Nielsens new salad bowls, servers and great cheese boards! My parents stared carrying Nambe in the 1950s at Nielsens, so I am so happy to have a new offering from this Native American company. Waterford has lots that is new also.  We are so glad that they are doing a new cased crystal flute with the cut of snowflakes.  You can acquire one color per year and all the snowflakes will be different each year!  This year is red and gorgeous.  You may just want 12 red ones!  We bought lots of Waterford Vases for Valentine's Day gifts and for Mother's Day.    The new black and clear John Rocha Waterford has a fabulous new ice bucket!  And we all want the individual Marquis wine carafes.  They are a fun shape and very reasonably priced.  Lismore Essence is Nielsens' bride's top pick!

Lladro has great new pieces for Mother's day .  We love the new Limited Edition Tango piece- you have to come and see it!  Lladro makes the prettiest wedding cake toppers you can find.  Nielsens has them all.  For Valentine's Day there are many romantic pieces.  I like Endless Love and the little girl holding a heart full of handmade flowers!

Oprah's favorite china tea cups are at Nielsens now- in a set of each a different color with a heart shape showing as you sip!  They are very reasonable, so give them as gifts to girl friends with a delicious package of Nielsens' Republic of Tea flavor.  It makes a great reminder that we should sit and sip and share with friends more often!

Penzo handmade African Pottery had lots to share with their art that benefits women, children and wild animals in Africa.  We purchased several one of a kind hand thrown pieces for you along with more serving pieces and fun bowls.  No two are ever alike and each is signed by the artist!   George and Annika and I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting Penny Vincent  who coordinates the artists.  She is delightful and a wonderful artist in her own right.  I hope she will visit Nielsens and meet you all!  You will love and admire her too for all she does for so many!  You help too by enjoying the beautiful Penzo pottery!  What great gifts it makes - it gives in many ways!  How wonderful!

We also had the wonderful experience of visiting Tervis Tumble factory in Venice, Florida.  Tervis Tumblers keep things hot or cold, don't sweat and can be put in the dishwasher and microwave.  They are made with the utmost care and love in America by the nicest people!   It was great to see it firsthand.  Nielsens will have a design in stock that will appeal to anyone.  You will find a great gift in the new designs by Tervis!  Nielsens is happy to have a large selection for you.  We can also do corporate custom orders for you!

Herend's new Guild piece is the Penguin!  It is fun and you will really like it.  Rothschild Bird has added many serving pieces to their new Branch pattern for the 150th birthday of the Rothschild Bird pattern.  Herend continues to be a favorite china for brides and everyone.  It is all handpainted - art you can use!  

 One of Doug's accomplished goals at market was to find great gifts $50. and under.  You will love the Tuscan pot filled with a scented candle - perfect for use inside and outside.  What a perfect gift for all occasions!  He also chose fun - really funny cocktail napkins and great signs with inspiring sayings and great gift notes.  You will love all the gifts- come to Nielsens to see and let Doug and Sadie suggest the perfect gifts for all your friends!

Julia Knight has designed beautiful new trays, vases and bowls.  You will love every one!  I will purchase the green water lily platter and the pink raspberry glass bowl and the beautiful vases in 3 sizes with the bright color inside.  And the new elegant tray will be perfect on my Ottoman!  You will be tempted too!  Julia Knight makes great hearts for Valentine's Day and the Vases will be the best for Mother's  Day gifts!   We loved spending some time with Julia.  She is so creative and inspiring.  She has more wonderful things for us on the drawing board.  Nielsens looks forward to her visit again next fall!  She makes entertaining our friends fun!

Valentine's Day is almost here and Nielsens has the best gifts ever! Julia Knight hearts, Simon Pearce heart bowls, vases in all brands and shapes and sizes, Lladro, Herend, Waterford and Lalique hearts, and Nielsens even has chocolates for your love- Come and see the chocolate heart shaped dessert cups!

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!

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

 

Rare Lladro Signing Event at Nielsens Gifts with Rosa Lladro, President of Lladro.  This is lovely Rosa Lladro.

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

News from Atlanta January 2010 Gift Market

I just returned from an exciting trip to market for Nielsens. Doug, George and Rhonda from Nielsens were there too! Who was running the store we were asked over and over! Nielsens was in the very capable hands of Suzanne, Cathy, Erin, Jody and Marlene. I hope you visited with them while we were selecting your favorite new gifts and home entertaining "essentials".

Julia Knight was there to introduce more colors in her fabulous new glassware that is hand made- mouth blown in Italy. It was so good to spend some time with Julia Knight. She is so inspiring in so many ways. I feel like I have made a wonderful new friend! Julia said to please tell all of her friends at Nielsens in Tulsa hello! She remembers you! And...she wants to come back to Nielsens to give some demonstrations- involving tasty food for us- more hints on Five Minutes to Fabulous home entertaining! Would you like that?

We are thinking of having a girl friend party this spring at Nielsens! What do you think?
We might unveil the new Julia Knight at the party! Is that a good idea? Should we have it presented on trays brought around the party by great looking guys in Tuxedos? Okay that is my fantacy...do you share it? Or do you prefer guys with tool belts? Okay, I am getting away from the Julia Knight introductions. The new Julia Knight glasses would of cource be filled with Champagne and Cosmopolitans! And the new serving pieces would be filled with delicious food by Rhonda!
