I truly hope you have all had a wonderful year and are looking forward to a fantastic year ahead. I know I am very excited for what the new year will bring, not least of which are some very exciting new things concerning my art and gift ranges! Some fantastic new products are lined up for release that you won&apos;t see anywhere else, and we also have a much bigger surprise in store but you will just have to wait to find out!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot;&gt;Don&apos;t forget that all of our current Christmas specials are still running at &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/&quot;&gt;www.kirstinmills.com&lt;/a&gt;! Also, we will be drawing the winner of the Newsletter print draw after Christmas, so don&apos;t forget to tell your friends about it and sign up for your chance to WIN!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;hr /&gt;       &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot; color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Christmas Trading Guide:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot;&gt;We are staying OPEN this year throughout Christmas, so your orders will be processed and shipped ultra fast! That said, it is best to try and get your orders in before the following dates to give your package the best chance of arriving before Christmas:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Australian orders:&lt;/strong&gt; 15th December, regular post or 18th December Express Post.&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;strong&gt;Internatioanl Orders: &lt;/strong&gt;10th December regular post or 15th December Express Post.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot;&gt;Please note, these dates are a guide only and will not necessarily guarantee delivery before Christmas. By the same token, we have shipped orders only a couple of days before Christmas to have them arrive in time before, so do utilise Express Shipping where you can!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;hr /&gt;       &lt;img alt=&quot;Kirstin wishes you a very Merry Christmas!&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/images/banners/christmaswish.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot;&gt;I would like to personally extend a very Merry Christmas to all of you beautiful people who support my art and inspired gifts. I am so deeply grateful and I treasure the opportunity you give me to follow my heart and create the images of magic and imagination that I love so much. I hope you have loved them too and enjoyed coming on this journey with me. And I very much look forward to continuing that journey in brand new directions next year! I hope your Christmas season is filled with love, magic, laughter and happiness and that all your Christmas wishes come true! Have a safe holiday everyone!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot;&gt;With love always,&lt;br /&gt;Kirstin xox&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;       &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Quote of the Month&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &amp;quot;Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;       -Calvin Coolidge&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/td&gt;   &lt;/tr&gt;   &lt;tr&gt;     &lt;td bgcolor=&quot;#5c4463&quot; align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;3&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot; color=&quot;white&quot;&gt;New At Our Etsy Store&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;   &lt;/tr&gt;   &lt;tr&gt;     &lt;td align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot; face=&quot;arial&quot;&gt;There are some great new things at our Etsy store this month that make PERFECT and totally unique Christmas gifts!

  <title>Photoshoot :)</title>
  <link>http://kirstinmills.livejournal.com/63527.html</link>
  <description>I think most of my entries in this journal begin with me explaining my latest absence! I really don&apos;t get much time to blog on here. The most I often do is my monthly art update and I think I&apos;ve even forgotten that a few times this year! Managing my art and other interests while working full time on my PhD has been quite a juggling act, but I am enjoying myself. When I feel overwhelmed by it all, which I confess is more than a little often, I just try and remember how lucky I am to be doing what I am and how much I would wish to be in this position if I weren&apos;t in it! Oh that pesky green grass on the other side... No, for the most part, though extremely busy, I am enjoying myself. Particularly lately as I have hunkered down into the Dickens novels in preparation for my third thesis chapter. Any way, yesterday my beautiful Ash and I went to Narrabeen beach to see a friend&apos;s band play (an absolutely knock-your-socks-off amazing funk/soul octet) and we were mucking around taking some photos on the beach afterwards. They were really fun and turned out quite nicely so I thought I would share just a few. PLUS, they prove that I am still actually physically present somewhere in the world, if not online haha :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/blog/kirstinonbeach2.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/blog/kirstinonbeach1.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/blog/kirstinonbeach3.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/blog/kirstinonbeach4.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

  <title>The secret behind Mona Lisa&apos;s enigmatic smile</title>
  <link>http://kirstinmills.livejournal.com/62350.html</link>
  <description>&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;I found this article really interesting:&amp;nbsp;I love the psychology and neuroscience behind the perception and interpretation of art. Have a read:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;The secret behind Mona Lisa&apos;s enigmatic smile has been explained by scientists    who believe it changes depending on which part of the eye sees it first.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i.telegraph.co.uk/telegraph/multimedia/archive/00648/news-graphics-2007-_648799a.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;One of the charms of the world&apos;s most famous painting is that she appears    radiant one moment and then serious and sardonic the next.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Now scientists claim to have come up with an answer to her changing moods -    our eyes are sending mixed signals to the brain.&lt;/p&gt; 	 &lt;p&gt;They believe Mona Lisa&apos;s smile depends on what cells in the retina pick up the    image and what channel the image is transmitted through in the brain.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Sometimes one channel wins over the other, and you see the smile, sometimes    others take over and you do not see the smile.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Different cells in the eye are designed to pick up different colours,    contrasts, backgrounds and foregrounds. Some deal with central vision while    others with peripheral.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Taken from the UK Telegraph. Read the whole article at&lt;/em&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/science-news/6453526/The-secret-behind-Mona-Lisas-enigmatic-smile.html&quot;&gt;http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/science-news/6453526/The-secret-behind-Mona-Lisas-enigmatic-smile.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description>

This beautiful item is a truly deluxe polished wooden box with a cream velvet lining and one of our 4.25&amp;quot; square ceramic art tiles adorning the lid! Get in early while stocks last: these boxes are so beautiful they will be sure to disappear quickly!

Now, unless specifically requested, each Ceramic Art Tile comes ready to hang or stand with its own easel-style backing! That is, of course, unless you prefer the other option, which is to have it framed in a gorgeous solid cherry-wood frame! Yes, these are now back in stock for both our Large and Small tiles! Of course, our tiles make great little features in splash-back tiling: if you would like your tiles unadorned, then simply mention this in the shopping cart when purchasing! See them now in the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/ceramic-art-tiles.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Ceramic Art Tiles&lt;/a&gt; gallery!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/ceramic-art-tiles.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img height=&quot;213&quot; alt=&quot;Fairy and Fantasy Art Ceramic Art Tiles&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/fairyfantasygifts/walltiles/fairyartceramictiles.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Product Update: Fine Art Prints!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For some time now I have been struggling with the dilemma of how best to represent my original artworks in the prints that I offer. While many people seem to be more than happy with the standard frame sizes and the beautiful satin-like waterproof semi-gloss paper they are offered on, I have always had a niggling issue with having to crop the original dimensions of the artworks to fit in with these sizes. But, on the other hand, I do agree that an easily frameable print is a more useful product for many of our customers, and the semi-gloss effect is truly beautiful. So, to make amends for this dilemma and after extensive trialing and testing, I am very pleased to (re)introduce another print option to our current four sizes: our &lt;i&gt;Fine Art Original Replicas&lt;/i&gt; are sized at exactly the dimensions of the original artwork and are printed on a luxuriously thick, slightly textured 100% cotton watercolour paper, making them look and feel just like the original artworks! This great new print option is available now in all of our &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/fine-art-prints.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Fairy and Fantasy Art Print Galleries&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/halloween-gifts.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img height=&quot;179&quot; alt=&quot;Shop for Fairy and Fantasy Art Halloween Art and Gifts!&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/images/halloweengiftsale.jpg&quot; width=&quot;412&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;Check out the great Halloween-themed products in our special Halloween Gift Gallery!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Exclusive behind-the-scenes insights!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you on Facebook?

  <title>September Website Update: New Art and GREAT New Products!</title>
  <link>http://kirstinmills.livejournal.com/59363.html</link>
  <description>&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;&lt;img height=&quot;121&quot; alt=&quot;Fairy and Fantasy Art Newsletter from The Magical World of Kirstin Mills&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/images/kirstinmillsupdates.jpg&quot; width=&quot;498&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; color=&quot;#532b30&quot;&gt;September 2009&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; color=&quot;#3d0122&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;It is with a glad heart that I welcome the first days of Spring to the air and trees and flowers around me! The warmth is picking up steadily here in Sydney and the fresh blooming freesias that line the roads and the budding blossoms dappling the trees fill the air with such a magical scent! And as a special omen of good luck, as I update this website it is the 9th hour of the 9th day of the 9th month of 2009! Over the last month I have been hard at work, managing to paint a new painting and begin several others that I will hopefully be able to finish over the next months, and also prepare for some very exciting product releases below!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;New Art: Dizzy Heights&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Firstly, the new artwork: called &apos;Dizzy Heights&apos;, it depicts one of my tiny little dragons perched high above the dark, swirling clouds on an ancient stone parapet. He reaches his neck out curiously to peer at the beautiful butterflies that float on the breeze. This beautiful artwork is available in all print sizes now in the &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/fantasy-art.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;Fantasy and Dragon Art Gallery&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/fairyfantasyart/fantasyart/dizzyheights.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;New Artwork: Dizzy Heights&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/thumbnails/dizzyheightskmills.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;New Products: Lace Cameo Pendant Chokers!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have finally brought back our cameo pendant chokers but in a new and improved style!

  <title>New Art - Dizzy Heights</title>
  <link>http://kirstinmills.livejournal.com/58988.html</link>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;I thought I&apos;d share my latest painting with you. Called &apos;Dizzy Heights&apos;, it depicts a cute little dragon peering curiously at some butterflies as they float above the clouds. It is available now in all print sizes at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com&quot;&gt;www.kirstinmills.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/art/dizzyheights(c)kirstinmills.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  <title>August Update: New Art, New Products and More!</title>
  <link>http://kirstinmills.livejournal.com/58328.html</link>
  <description>&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;img height=&quot;121&quot; alt=&quot;Fairy and Fantasy Art Newsletter from The Magical World of Kirstin Mills&quot; width=&quot;498&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/images/kirstinmillsupdates.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left&quot;&gt;It&apos;s the last month of Winter here in Australia and I can already feel the joy of Spring in the air! This year&apos;s spring will not only bring new life to the beautiful flora and fauna surrounding my home but new growth to my art and gift ranges! Lots of big updates and new artworks are in the works and will begin flowering over the next few months. This month, we begin with several changes, cleaning up some areas of my range and making way for new growth! Read more below...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Art: Peekaboo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;A gorgeous new artwork is now available to adorn your walls with its heart-melting cuteness! Called &apos;Peekaboo&apos;, this is a portrait of my own darling cat, Cherokee! Available now in the &lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/traditional-art.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;Cat Art Gallery&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/fairyfantasyart/otherart/peekaboo.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Art Print, Cat Art, Peekaboo, cat, ginger, orange, red, cute, feline, puss, print, giclee, reproduction, open edition&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/thumbnails/peekabookirstinmills.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Original Art Available: Moon Tree ACEO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Be quick to secure this unique opportunity to own a very special and highly collectible Original ACEO Painting for an incredibly low price! Original artworks don&apos;t often come with such a low price tag: especially not ones with such collector&apos;s value as this! The original painting &amp;quot;Moon Tree&amp;quot; has had NO prints made from it and is purely a unique painting created especially for the collector of one-of-a-kind and magical things! Be quick to see it now in the &lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/original-art-sales.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;Original Art Sales gallery&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; color=&quot;#432621&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/fairyfantasyart/originalart/moontree.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Original Artwork, watercolour painting, Fantasy Art, ACEO, Collectible, Moon Tree&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/thumbnails/moontreesm.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have also made several price adjustments to the other artworks available in our &lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/original-art-sales.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;Original Art Sales gallery&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;, resulting in some big savings for you! If you have been waiting to purchase a Kirstin Mills original, then now is your chance with some incredibly low prices! I have been accumulating too many original artworks in my studio and now it&apos;s time to find them new homes. So if you have been wondering what to do with that space on the wall or looking for that perfect but unique gift, then perhaps the unsurpassable magic and wonder of a hand-painted original artwork is the right choice for you! See the available artworks in the &lt;/font&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/original-art-sales.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Original Art Sales gallery&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;New Product: T-Shirts!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;I have finally decided to release these T-Shirts for sale after a few months of enjoyable product testing wearing them around myself! They are simply gorgeous items and so cute with almost any outfit! &apos;Dream Big&apos; was the original design, featuring the cute little dragon painting &apos;Up in the Air&apos;, but I just couldn&apos;t resist the idea of a T-Shirt with this month&apos;s latest painting, the equally adorable &apos;Peekaboo&apos;! Made of a unique high performance fabric, these T-Shirts look and feel like the softest cotton but actually hold their shape really well and feature built-in moisture-management, temperature control, anti-bacterial and anti-odour properties, keeping you perfectly comfortable and dry all day! I will hopefully be creating more designs to add to this gallery in the future, but you can check out the first two T-Shirts now in the new &lt;b&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/t-shirts.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;T-Shirt gallery&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt; &lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/t-shirts.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;New Product: Beautiful T-Shirts!&quot; border=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/fairyfantasygifts/tshirts/kirstinmillstshirts.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; color=&quot;#432621&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Product News: Cuff Bracelets&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we introduced our beautiful Cuff Bracelets in June last year, we were excited to release this beautiful, new and unique product to fairy art and jewellery collectors. Now, after a year, we are slimming the line down again to carry only one of our previous three designs: our most popular and the most beautiful design of the three. The available artwork designs can now only be purchased in this setting, in your choice of gold or silver. BUT, to appease you and to improve this gorgeous line even further, we have implemented a dramatic price cut! You can now own any of these gorgeous bracelets for only USD$16.00 (AUD$19.95) each! See them in the&lt;/font&gt; &lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/bracelets.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;Bracelets gallery&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#3d0122&quot;&gt; &lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/bracelets.htm&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Fairy and Fantasy Art Cuff Bracelets&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/fairyfantasygifts/bracelets/goldcuffl.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Product News: Discontinued Products&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In further shaping our range ready for future updates, we have decided to discontinue certain product lines, such as our Satin Shoulder Bags. This line has now been discontinued and I will be placing remaining stock on sale in the Sales and Specials gallery in the coming weeks. Also soon to be discontinued are our Keyrings. While a beautiful and popular little product, these keyrings are becoming too difficult to manufacture and the high risk of damaged leftover stock makes it too expensive to continue offering them. We will however, continue to offer our beautiful Metal Keyrings and are considering options for further keychains in the future.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 9pt&quot;&gt;With Fairy Blessings,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;img height=&quot;46&quot; alt=&quot;Kirstin Mills&quot; width=&quot;114&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/images/kirstinsigniature.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;Get these updates delivered to your inbox along with new special offers, discounts, competitions, art tips, inspirational quotes and more by joining our Newsletter list at &lt;font face=&quot;Arial&quot; color=&quot;#3d0122&quot; style=&quot;font-weight: 700; font-size: 8pt&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kirstinmillsupdates/join&quot;&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kirstinmillsupdates/join&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#432621&quot;&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;View the magical range of gifts at www.kirstinmills.com&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;http://www.kirstinmills.com/images/kirstinmillsbutton.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
