About Lori

Hello, my name is Lori Mills and I am known as the "Lady of Layers". Growing up in the country, I often went fishing with my father on the weekends, so much fun and so much boredom. I started playing with my dad's lurers and lines creating jewelry and I was hooked. As the years went on, I stayed true to my tomboy roots being a T-shirt and jeans girl. I realized the quickest way to jazz up an outfit was with jewelry. I found myself purchasing and repurposing jewelry to make it my own and unique.

My inspiration to create truly comes from helping others find what makes them feel beautiful. It is the best feeling to see their eyes light up when they look in mirror and know they found their "unique look". Our clients are the heart and soul of our brand. We love hearing their stories, building our community and designing jewelry that fits their walk of life.

Handmade in IN, NJ Jewels creates collections that are dainty, effortless pieces that can you can mix and match through every season and every reason.
