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!
We are expecting another baby and have 3 doc. appts on Valentine’s Day!! We decided to go watch a long over due movie date and watch “Warm Body” and grab a burger and head home to our daughter.
Rachel says
Jewel Me!
I’ve been realizing more and more that I don’t enjoy those high-pressure trying-too-hard go-out-to-fancy-places dates. I’m an introvert, so being around lots of people (as in, crazy crowded V-day restaurant crowds) is totally not fun. Plus, I can be a picky eater, and spending large wads of cash for food that often doesn’t end up being very good isn’t fun either! So this year I told my hubby that for V-day I want take-out from my favorite semi-fast-food place and to rent a movie. Should be just my kind of fun!
Lauren says
JEWEL ME!!!

…..super fancy style.
Connie Marie says
Jewel Me!
Galentine’s Day anyone?
Maybe I just haven’t had a great Valentine’s yet, but one of my favorite things about the holiday is watching all the Valentine episodes of my favorite shows!
As for the actual holiday.. it sort of rubs me the wrong way: not genuine/too forced. I’ll take a surprise display of affection from my loved ones over a commercial holiday any day!
Matt says
Jewel me! I’d love to win this for my wife! We’re planning to spend Valentine’s Day at home and then go out to dinner on Friday.

Matthew says
Jewel me! We’re going out to dinner on Friday night.
Emily says
Jewel me!
I’ll be spending the evening in a 4-hour linguistics class. an interesting class, but not the preferred way to spend the day…
Heidi says
JEWEL ME! :)
Actually, I’m not sure what I’m doing this year! I may just be solo, and in that case might indulge myself with a present and a burger! (Not the dog – although he would make an adorable Valentine.)
MamaG says
JEWEL ME! I’ll be making my boys a yummy dinner at home and making Valentine’s with my son (he’s 3) for the first time to take to school. When I brought the heart stickers home to decorate them he took one look and threw them on the floor. When I asked why he said, “I don’t like them. Those are hearts and I want baseballs.” Sorry kid:)
Colleen says
Jewel me!
Downtown Abbey Seasons 1 and 2. Maybe even a diet rootbeer, if I am feeling the love.
Taryn says
JEWEL ME!

Jewel Me!!! We’ll be leaving the kids with grandparents and grilling steaks with old friends of ours.
Allison says
JEWEL ME!
We’re having dinner at our favorite neighborhood Mexican joint. Special, because we love it so much…not so special because we eat there neatly twice a month. Can’t beat a cheap date that is also a favorite!
Colleen R says
JEWEL ME! Great pieces for sure. This V-Day, hubby & I, along with our wee boy will be dining at home, enjoying a treat meal and a glass of wine (well, milk for the boy)We’ll follow that up with a snuggle & storytime. We’re not big gift givers outside of xmas and stay away from the restaurant scene on lovers day – but we celebrate with time spent together.
kate o. says
jewel me! we’re going out to a dear friend’s new restaurant and making a night of it :) hope you all enjoy love-day!

Jewel me! We’re having a date night this weekend!
Cora says
Jewel Me! My hubby and I live in different cities, so we celebrated last Friday when I was home for the weekend by eating lunch and dinner at a couple of our favorite local spots with some window shopping for furniture in between.
Katie says
JEWEL ME!
This year’s Valentine’s Day will be low key. I had emergency stomach surgery two weeks ago, so my request for dinner is pancakes at IHOP. That way, I can wear yoga pants and not look out of place!
Adrienne says
JEWEL ME…..going to cook a nice dinner and have it early with the kids! Also plan on blowing up a lot of balloons for the morning surprise.
Susan M. says
Jewel me!

My valentines day is going to involve hot chocolate chip cookies with ice cream.

Hubby and I have no plans for Valentine’s day this year. Between his crazy work schedule and my stomach bug, I’ll be thrilled with dinner in front of a movie on our couch :)
Margaret says
JEWEL ME!
No sweetheart for me, so it’s just going to be another Thursday…just one day closer to the weekend!
Jennifer @ Dimples and Tangles says
Jewel Me! We will most likely celebrate as a family with a special dinner at home. My hubby is off work Friday so we will spend the day together while the kids are at school. :) We much prefer going out for lunch during the day to avoid the crowds!
Britt says
JEWEL ME!!
I don’t know what my Valentines plans are! I know I’m going to Charleston, SC to see my boyfriend but he’s planning the rest as a surprise from there!
Leah says
JEWEL ME!
No special plans for V Day. I tried to make some toilet paper roll stamped valentines with my 23 month old, but after throwing paint on the floor twice and once at me, I gave up. Maybe we’ll color some valentines instead…
Aaron says
JEWEL ME!
We decided no gifts this year, but we will probably go out to dinner this weekend.
Beth Gilbert says
JEWEL ME!!!!
Something quiet at home with the hubby…v-day isnt nearly as exciting once you’re married:)
Brit says
JEWEL ME! We’ve never celebrated Valentine’s Day as a couple, just not our thing, but I like baking something cute and Valentines-themed for my office.
Jen says
Jewel me!
Homemade lasagna with the family!
Jolleen F says
Jewel me!
We celebrated as a couple a bit early with a ski trip last week! On the actual day, we like to make it a big deal and shower the kiddos with extra fun activities.
Haley says
JEWEL ME! I don’t have plans for Valentine’s day yet… I guess I should get on that already!
