***This giveaway has reached is now closed – see who won below!***
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! And an especially happy one to our randomly selected, lucky winner who goes by the name of… Oona (who will likely celebrate tonight with dinner at “a lovely vegan restaurant”). Congrats Oona!
We love celebrating Valentine’s Day with you guys by giving away some free jewelry, and this year Sherry’s especially stoked because the prize is coming from none other than Kendra Scott – one of her favorite places to request that I buy her earrings for various occasions (like the past two Christmases). Kendra Scott has definitely earned me a few husband points, so this (are you ready for it?) $500 gift card means that someone else out there can score major points from the one they love – or one lucky winner can grab her own jewels for herself. And probably have money leftover to share the wealth with a few friends or relatives. Oh and if you fancy yourself a Kendra Scott in the making, you can even use their Color Bar to customize several of their pieces. So yeah, Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

JEWEL ME!
I am normally not a fan of Valentines day, but this year my boyfriend and I (we have been dating 5 years!) are going to some restaurant downtown. I would prefer to eat take-out and watch a movie on the couch, but I won’t complain :]
Kirsten says

Vicky says
JEWEL ME! We’ll be making heart shaped pizzas!
Caitlin says
Jewel me! Last year my boyfriend and I started the tradition of going to a casual dinner at Panda Express. I was craving it and turns out to be very empty on this day, so it’s great for that romantic privacy everyone looks for in their fast-food Chinese dining experience!
Kelly says
JEWEL ME!
My husband and I are doing a double-date with another couple. The girls are cooking for the guys, and we’re having steak and fondue for dessert!

Jewel ME!

Mandee says
Jewel Me!!
I don’t usually do Valentine’s Day (it’s kind of a weird holiday and I’m single), so I’m doing nothing out of the ordinary, but I’m working hard to get some projects done so I won’t say I’ll be “doing nothing”!
Maybe I should put together a Galentine’s celebration for all the women in my life? (Love you Leslie!!)
Amanda says
Jewel Me!
The boyfriend will be out of town til late that night and I’ll be finishing up some packing for our big move the next day. So we’ll probably just celebrate over the weekend by having a nice glass of wine once we’re settled into our new place!
Brittany M. says
JEWEL ME!
Originally, my mother-in-law was pit-stopping at our house on a road trip on Valentine’s day, but my husband JUST called and told me that she’s cancelled her plans and we’re alone on V-day! We’re going to live.it.up.
Ellen Kaak says
JEWEL ME!!!! I am in a 1/2 marathon on the 24th so I am getting a physical and running a “short run” of 5 miles that night.
We have been married for 15 years so our Valentine’s Days are low key these days. We don’t need a holiday to remind each other how much they are loved! <3
Cara says
Jewel Me!!! I have two kids and we will celebrate Valentine’s Day as a family. My daughter will enjoy setting a special table, and I will cook a special dinner. An early bedtime is in order so that my husband and I can continue the lovin in the bedroom.
Amie says
JEWEL ME!
Oh, wow! What a generous giveaway!
We haven’t really done a lot for V-Day, but we do make a point of buying two fancy cupcakes and pigging out on chocolate.
Erika says
JEWEL ME!!
Valentine’s Day will be treated like any other Thursday around here. But we are headed to Ottawa in a couple weeks to celebrate our anniversary.
Erin says
Jewel Me!
We will be on vacation in Florida, getting away from the cold weather!
Alisa D says
Jewel me!
We aren’t doing anything on Valentine’s Day, but are going out the next night to a hockey game. Not very romantic, but we don’t have time away from our kids often, so we look forward to it!
Allie / 6000 Miles to Home says
Jewel me!! I would be so beyond excited – Kendra Scott is my fave. Jimbo and I are going to a Delta Rae concert together in the city (San Fran) which should be fun!
Laura says
JEWEL ME!
It will just be a normal Thursday
Ruth Ann says
Jewel Me! Well, I turn 50 this year so there better be some kind of sweet date out there for me & my man (of 29 years).
carrie says
jewel me!
the 5-year-old has requested tomato bisque soup with parmesan-rosemary waffles, so… fancy dinner at home with 3 five-and-unders it is!
Chelsea says
Jewel me! A night in with the hubby. Our first Valentine’s since getting married, but our tradition since we started dating is low-key: a night in making baked Mac and cheese together and an old romance classic movie one or both of us haven’t seen!
Rachel says
JEWEL ME!!
This Valentine’s day will mark my fourth anniversary and I will be spending it first with my kindergarteners and then going out to dinner with my man if I can manage to wipe the glitter and glue from Valentine’s day crafts off myself.
Yes the hubby and I actually went on our first date on Valentine’s day (we count our anniversary from then, not the day we got married) because we were both working at a store on Valentine’s Day and neither of us had plans, so to avoid being alone we went to a movie together.
Or so he led me to believe. I wore my uniform and as I’m sure you can imagine, retail uniforms are so not cute. Not the most romantic first date story but I always tell my single friends that you never know who could end up being the perfect person for you. Maybe it’s that guy in the other department who’s too shy to ask you out until he knows for sure you have no other plans and you’re unlikely to say no. Maybe he’s had a crush on you since the first day you started working there and he’s just too shy to ask you out. Take a chance and go out with him, even if you’re in your uniform and you’re gross and sweaty. You never know, it could be the story you tell your kids someday.
