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!

    WEAR ME!

    I don’t really decorate with anything in my closet, although I would if I could wear earrings. I love how pretty earrings are, and if I wore them I would probably keep them in a little glass jar so that I could see them and wear them anytime I wanted.

    WEAR ME! I have two purses with matching mittens and skate pom poms made out of rabbit fur. One set in red and one in white that I display on my bannister during Christmas. I’ve never seen another set like them.

    Wear me! Does leaving all of your coats on the back of the dining room chairs count as decor? Probably not, since its mostly because I’m too lazy to put them away, not because I particularly think they add to the house. I just got this beautiful Vera scarf that I have not yet tried but may now use to decorate the house in some way.

    Sadly none of my clothes are used as decor. Although inspiration often crosses the boundary both ways.

    I had a friend make a quilt out of her old high school t-shirts and she displayed it in her room. It was like a piece of history.

    I have quite the collection of scarves, colors and patterns galore. I recently purchased an old suitcase and set it open on the floor at the base of my full length mirror. I have all the scarves piled in and billowing out. It is a fun way to display them, and they are now easy to see while i am getting ready in the morning!

    Wear me! Funny enough – I have nothing fashion-wise that decorates the house, with the exception of recently: my wedding dress laid out on a chair in the bedroom from where I took it off. It’s been two weeks (including the honeymoon!) but I can’t bear to take it to be cleaned quite yet… Is a wedding dress a decor item??

    I love to decorate with scarves! Can’t beat them for a quick easy table runner (I’ve seen Sherry do this in one of your place setting videos) or an easy way to dress up the boring back of a chair.

    My husband’s heritage cap can usually be found hanging on the coat rack by our front door. That way he always knows where to find it and the rack doesn’t look too lonely when company isn’t over to adorn it.
