Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season.  I'm gearing up for 2015 and busy planning out the new year ahead.  I hope to bring you many special events, amazing new artists and merchandise throughout the year.  We are also launching our online store this winter!

This past year was a terrific one for the dmg.  We greatly appreciate your support in 2014.  Thank you for keeping it local too.  Your patronage of the dmg allows me to support the community I love, as well as many local organizations I feel passionate about.  I look forward to serving you in the new year!

BAG DAY SALE!

Can you believe Thanksgiving is next week? In Northampton, Thanksgiving means a lovely holiday spent with family and friends, but it's also a sure sign that the annual BAG DAY SALE is happening once again on Sat before Thanksgiving in downtown Northampton. 

The sale works like this.  You get a shopping bag that is distributed in the local paper, Daily Hampshire Gazette, and you get 20% off one item at any of the participating retailers, which totals to over 40 stores.  It's a lot of fun and it's the only sale we have during this holiday season.

We're open special hours 9:30-8pm this Saturday.  Come join us and get an early start on your holiday shopping!

WIN, WIN, WIN!  Starting tomorrow, we will be giving away a gallery item or gift certificate every two weeks.  Find out how on our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/donmullergallery).  Start by liking our page and stay tuned for giveaway opportunities!  The very first giveaway starts tomorrow, Oct 18.

 

new for fall!

It's almost October and we have definitely entered the fall season.  The air is cooler, the leaves are changing color and it's apple-picking season!  There are many things to love about autumn in the Valley, one of which is the array of new merchandise we have at the dmg.  Here are a couple of my favorites you will see this fall.

Adel Chefridi is new to the dmg this month.  His jewelry is superb.  It's delicate, harmonious and conjures up an old-world feel, which I adore.  We carry a line of his sterling silver and two-tone earrings, necklaces, and rings with diamonds, sapphires, and rubies.

Rossheim/Marrinson Studios is returning to the dmg this fall. I love the simplicity, the eye-catching color combinations, and the subtle textures in their ceramic bowls.

And there are so much more to see instore! Come check us out next time you're in the neighborhood.

Nelles Studio

Having twin toddlers, I have a lot of toys in my house.  Sometimes, I find myself pausing to look at the toys, feeling nostalgic and remembering the good old days of childhood. 

I walked by Scott Nelles' booth at a wholesale craft show back in Feb and was immediately drawn to his whimsical bronze sculptures (some are coin banks!).  His pieces are playful, yet they carry a level of sophistication that I like.  I thought the sculptures would bring a sense of humor to the gallery, and fill a niche that I felt was missing in my store.  

His collection includes a flying piggy bank (on wheels), 'Bob' the robot, cars, and even a cowboy on bass fish!  Yee-haw!
