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).

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!

    My whole house is very similar to my closet. My closet is full of neutrals with bits of color introduced in my scarves, shoes, and jewelry and my house is neutral furniture and bedding with more colorful throw pillows, rugs, and fun accents.

    We have a great little shelf with hooks that hangs near our entryway. I hang all my scarves there. It’s a great combination of function and decoration.

I bought 4 of them and hung them on my closet wall – they are espresso stained with a beautiful linen liners and I hang all my jewelry from small pearl head pins – I now know where all of my stuff is and it doesn’t get tangled!

    I bought a couple beautiful ceramic jars with lids in Morocco that I keep some of my jewelry inside. They go with the colors in my bedroom and I display them on my bookshelf. They’re great for concealing the pieces that I wear often so that they’re not lying around all over the place.

    I made a cozy throw for the livingroom couch out of a bunch of old sweaters I had from my college days in the late 90s. They were all huge, and probably not coming back into style, so I felted them, and then cut them down, sewed them together, and put a binding on. It came out really cute!

    I collect antique brooches and display them – I started with some that I got from my Nana. Also, hubby tends to work his (typically VERY well used!) work shirts hard till they rip or are otherwise wrecked … and then I use them to make pillows if they have a neat pattern, or to stuff pillows if they’re in bad shape.

    My SHOE collection would (in my opinion) look so much better in our rec room then the current “Man Cave” that looks like the hockey hall of fame threw up in it. Just saying.. :)

    Side note: Love love love this blog. Such an inspiration!

    I keep my necklaces on a tree on my dresser as a decorative touch (hint hint). Also, I have a separate set of colors that I like for home decor and another one for wearing. They don’t intersect. Weird.
