About MilliJoolz

Our Service Pledge To You:
I am at my computer at least once a day; when you contact me, I will get back to you within 24 hours.

HOWEVER:
In late fall and early spring we move; from Vermont to Florida, and back. A special note will be displayed at the top of each page to inform you.

About Us
Until March 1996 I lived in Amsterdam, Holland, where I was born shortly after the second World War.
In 1995 I met my (American) husband and so I packed up my most important possessions ( my piano and my dog ) and moved to the US, where we got married in 1996.

Ever since I was really small, I've been intrigued by fabulous joolz. The joolz I put together in my early years consisted of self made beads of paper, clay, and cheap plastic beads.
The first 'real' piece was a luscious bib out of black and turquoise glass beads, and the beads I was using came from dresses that had belonged to my mother when she was a teenager and older necklaces, that had belonged to my grandmother. No need to say that the love for shiny embellishments did run in the family...

About a year ago I decided to make my own 'centerpieces'. Strongly inspired by Hagler, Haskell and DeMario, I used the 'wiring technique': brooch-type centerpieces in elaborate shapes and colors.

There are artisans who have a limited amount of designs and make the same designs over and over again, calling it 'original' and 'my line ...so and so...'. Copying a design is boring to me and an insult to my creativity. Therefore I never make the same design twice. Every piece I start is a passionate challenge, I don't stop until it is completely the way I want it to be. For instance, the genuine turquoise necklace and earring set 'For Your Eyes Only' took me over 3 months to finish. It's like giving birth - each piece is unique, and a piece of my self. I do sell, but only to extremely loving homes...:-)

Besides being in love with Glamorous, Flashy and Glitzy Joolz I am a profound music lover; a lot of times my creations are being named after songs that I love. Other than that I'm pretty normal .. :-D
