Fab Freebie: Housewears

*** This giveaway is no longer accepting entries.***

Ok, so maybe you didn’t get that bit of bling you wanted for Valentine’s Day earlier this month. Here’s your chance to rectify the situation with some personalized jewelry from Lisa Leonard Designs. She even sells home decor-related pieces like necklaces with a chandelier, paper lanterns, frames and a house key on them. If those aren’t designs after our own home-loving hearts than we don’t know what is.

I’m not so good with the jewelry lingo, but word on the street (or at least from the pregnant lady standing behind me right now) is that Lisa’s hand-cut and hand-hammered sterling silver necklaces, bracelets and earrings are well-worth shouting “oooh, I love that one… and that one… and that one” in your husband’s ear. In fact, Sherry loved the earrings that Lisa sent her way so much that we recently bought a set for my little sister’s birthday. And they barely take them off (so yes, my sister and my wife are often at family events sporting matching earrings).

Lisa Leonard Pic2

And if you’re having trouble picking a favorite, perhaps this will make life a bit easier: Lisa Leonard Designs is giving away TWO $100 gift certificates towards anything in her store, so our winners can snag more than one thing if they just can’t decide. Plus if you don’t win, they’re generously dishing out a discount to everyone else, so stay tuned for that along with our winner announcement on Thursday. In the meantime, here’s how to enter:

  • PRIZE: A $100 credit towards anything in Lisa Leonard Design’s entire collection
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “WEAR ME” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …tell us about something in your closet that doubles (or that you wish could double) as home decor. Do you display your purse collection for all to see? Do you swag a scarf over a hook by the door for some color? Or do you have a favorite dress whose fabric would look awesome as curtains or an accent pillow?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, February 24th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: All over the globe!
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    I hang my necklaces from hooks on my bedroom wall. The varying lengths and colors and the shimmer make pleasant wall “art.” It also make it easy to pick out what I want to wear each day :)

    I wish I had a way to display my handbag collection but at the same time protect it from dust. Instead I keep it all organized in a closet. I guess I could take pictures of it and make a collage. . .

    I have this awesome pair of rain boots (on clearance at DSW for the win) that have a black, yellow, and white modern squares kind of pattern. I love them, and if I could have some throw pillows in that pattern (but not rubber!) it would be so cool!

    Actually I love the shirt I’m wearing right now. It’s one of best friend’s Gap maternity shirts and it’s being stretched to the max, but I think it would make a lovely either wall hanging or curtains.

    I don’t have an interesting way to display my [pretty simple] closet, but my mom often displays her hat collection on walls. She is such a funny hat lady. Many of them are really cool – flapper-esque hats or bright pink ones with feathers. Each one has a story, and they really work well on display!
