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 didn’t do this myself, but thought it was an awesome idea when I saw a friend of mine do it — she hung her wedding dress up on one of their bedroom walls as decor… it looked great in their awesome room!

    Wear Me – I have my jewelry displayed in a really cool diy frame project. I found a frame at goodwill that had linen inside and was blue, I spray painted it white and put tacks where I wanted to hang my jewelry and now my necklaces no longer get tangled from being put in a small bowl, they’re all displayed so nicely. It was a great way to display them and add some decor to my bathroom without having to add a jewelry box to the counter.

    WEAR ME! These necklaces are ADORABLE!!!

    I have a slight shoe obsession (please note, I use the word “slight” as loosely as possible), and when they started overflowing out of their bins in my smaller than small closet, I decided to showcase some of my favorite pairs. I bought a bookcase and some extra shelves at Ikea and put it in a corner of my bedroom behind an armchair, and my shoes got a much better home than piled in my closet! It has definitely been a conversation starter when new friends visit my apartment!

    Wear Me! Years ago, I went to San Francisco for my high school graduation and bought a black square scarf with dull gold flecks, and black fringe all around it. Not sure I’ve ever worn the scarf, but it has been used in a lot of decor choices over the years….especially around Halloween!

    I’m not sure if it counts, but I have pretty wicker shoe baskets by each door- all filled with shoes and/or homemade knit slippers from my Grammy – I love them and they are always there, so I’d say that they double as some decor!
