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!

    My aunt gave me a picture frame with chicken wire stapled to the back. It is a great way to display your earrings so picking out the perfect ones are easy PLUS makes a great decor piece on my vanity. ALSO a neat DIY project and a gift!!

    I have a page ripped from a J.Crew catalog a few seasons back and wish I could turn the whole outfit into a room (if that makes sense). Everything on the page looks so clean and crisp and the perfect little details MAKE it, know what I mean?

    WEAR ME!! I wish there was a cute way to display all of those cute little outfits my babies have grown out of. My grandmother is currently making a quilt out of onesies. She used the ones she kept from all 4 of her daughters, their children and then her great-grandchildren. I am so excited to see the results. Who knows. Maybe I’ll tackle one of my own when they kids get a little older.

    I hang my necklaces on the wall, over my dresser. I think they are beautiful, so why not show them off? Plus, they don’t get tangled up in a jewelry box this way!

    I also have this kooky idea to do a kitchen organizer out of my all my grandma’s old (read: amazing!) aprons.

    Suggestions?

    I don’t really have anything that does double-duty for me as decor. I’ve been wanting to make a cute jewelry holder to also display, but it keeps getting put on the back burner. Maybe Spring Break…

    Nothing from my closet could double as decor, although I often hang some of my favorite necklaces in the bathroom across the mirror kind of artistically. Or maybe I’m just lazy?

    Thanks for the chance!

    I love purses and I have too many to fit in our closet. I have them on display on a bookcase in the bedroom. Also I use colorful/funky scarves to line our end tables and coffee tables. It is a more updated look than lace doilies.

    I love old bed sheets (those are stored in your closet right?) and using them for table cloths, curtains, pillows, etc. They don’t make them that soft anymore.

    Our bed room is so small, we had to use shelves to store our clothes–so they are on display, even if it isn’t aesthetically pleasing!

    No, not really anything in my closet that doubles as home decor. But I’ve brought some decor into the closet – I picked out some great fabric and ribbon and used them to cover up discarded Pampers boxes to use as stylish storage for purses, scarves and hats. :)

    My jewelry could double as home decor. They are so different and fun.
