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).
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!

WEAR ME! We have some built-in shelves in the closet that my husband wanted to use for his clothes, but I got him to put them somewhere else so I could put my purses, scarves, and jewelry boxes there to make for a prettier display.
and I am soooo coveting the chandelier “sparkle” necklace!
Wear me!!
Wear me! If only my partner would let me display my boots as art!
Wear me.
I leave my grandma’s antique jewelry box open with all of her treasures showing.
WEAR ME
my shoes inadverdently act as decor – they’re scattered in every room of the house :o)
WEAR ME! I have a really cool club shirt that has strands of beads, I could just see it as a lamp shade!
WEAR ME!
I can’t wait to pull in all my favorite colors from my wardrobe when we decorate our new house. I tend to dress in solids, but LOVE to accessorize- and I think that is exactly how our house will turn out ;)
WEAR ME! We actually use a hand woven woolen shawl as decor across the bottom of our bed and every once and a while when it’s a bit chilly, I wear it out!
WEAR ME!
Wear me! I have a beautiful sweater and I wish I could have a blanket made of the same material!
WEAR ME!
I have a striped menswear shirt that would make an awesome duvet cover and sham set if I had, like, 12 yards of the fabric. But I just have the shirt. It’s still a great shirt!
WEAR ME!
Last summer I was inspired by your blog posts about displaying jewelry as art. I have some great jewelry that I never used to wear because I didn’t feel like digging around for it. Now its displayed in our bedroom and I wear a piece (or two) everyday!
Wear Me, Please!
I have a couple of sweaters that are super soft – I’d love to have them as pillows, that would be heaven. Unfortunately, I think that the fabric is too delicate.
Wear me!
Wear Me!!! I would love to display some of my shoes. Maybe I can talk my husband into putting up a shelf or two for my shoes…
WEAR ME!
I would love to display my vintage dress collection. I’ve long since outgrown the dresses and was always a little nervous wearing something that survived 40 years only to be ruined by a spill or rip.
Wear me!
“WEAR ME” I can’t think of anything that can double as home decor,but look forward to reading what other people do!
Wear Me! I have a vintage, silk scarf from my mom that would make the most beautiful duvet cover.
Wear me!
Wear Me! Hmm…. I’d love to say I drape my purse on our baker’s rack and that it looks nice… but well, my husband would disagree.
However, I can say that I took Vera Bradley Napkins and turned them into 4 squares (canvas stretchers, quilting batting) and hang them together to look like a ribbon board :)Close?
WEAR ME!!!
I would display my purses if my husband would let me. But they do have their own space in our closet – 3 long shelves worth to be exact.
WEAR ME!
Right now all of my necklaces are hidden away in a jewelry box, but I’d love to get a necklace tree so that they can be displayed (and stay tangle-free).
Wear me!
In our old appartment I used to have an awesome walk-in closet where I had my shoes displayed in pride of place, always made me smile, sadly having moved to a london sized appartment there is no room for them in my wardrobe there isnt enough room for all my clothes! I haven’t posted anything since you two announced your big news so let me say congratulations- very happy for you!! I keep passing on your blog to so many friends!
Wear me! I have a cork board in my closet that I use to hang my necklaces on push pins. It keeps them tangled free and I can see them all.
Wear me!!
Wear me!
Absolutely nothing in my closet looks good…not even the hangers. Time for a remodel and a new wardrobe!
WEAR ME
I have a walk in closet the hubby built especially for me…it’s pink, has a lovely little chandelier and compartments for my faux jewels. I love seeing my girlfriends go gaga over it!!!
wear me!
I have all of my purses and scarves on display on an antique coat rack in the bedroom.
Wear Me! I have nightgowns and sleep shirts in every color. I hang them as a gradation – kind of like ROYGBIV! – in my bathroom. They’re easily accessible and fun to see hanging together.
WEAR ME. I have a deliciously cozy ivory cable-knit sweater that I wish could be turned into a luxurious throw for our living room.
WEAR ME
wear me!
oh my, too many things – scarves are the most obvious, i love draping them around, and can get away with some pretty bold colors/prints using them.
WEAR ME! I think nice baby clothes look good as decor, i.e, a sweet dress or two hanging on the nursery walls.
Wear me! This jewelry is awesome! I think a neat necklace tree can add convenience and color to a room.
wear me
I hung hooks on the empty wall to display purses, necklaces and cute accessories!
WEAR ME! I wish that I could find pillows as soft as my favorite cashmere sweater!
WEAR ME…
i have this fantastic jewelry holder that is black metal and in the shape of a dress form that would look great just sitting on a shelf somewhere, with or without jewelry :)
WEAR ME!
I have all of my necklaces and earrings display in a sea grass board in my bathroom.
WEAR ME! fingers and toes crossed!!! love this stuff :-)
I love displaying my jewellery as art by having special pieces out on my dresser and hanging earrings off my jewelery box. I would also love to make some of my coziest sweaters into warm blankets or sweater pillows!

Wear Me!
In college, my scarves doubled as Christmas tree decorations. While our tree these days has more traditional ornaments, we do use our overabundance of Disney antennae toppers as ornaments, too!
WEAR ME! Oooh! i’ve LONG loved Lisa’s designs! I have a pretty wrought-iron coat hook that I use to hang my necklaces on the wall of my bedroom. I love how all the colors and textures of my different necklaces look hanging on the wall! :)
Wear me! I have all my purses on hooks for easy access and simple organization!
WEAR ME. Ok it is not clothes but I leave my perfume out for all to see- just too pretty to keep hidden away.

WEAR ME!
I made an earring holder/display out of a picture frame — you take out the glass, hot-glue wire mesh in its place, and screw a piece of molding onto the bottom so it will stand up. All of my colorful earrings make it a very interesting piece of ‘art’!
Wear Me!
I display my jewelry on fun plates in my dresser. It looks pretty- and I can see everything so I know my choices!
WEAR ME!
Wear Me!!!
WEAR ME!
Our closet doesn’t have doors, so I’ve organized all our clothes in color-coordinated piles and cute boxes. It’s functional and nice to look at!
