***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***
Thanks to V-Day, we’re straying from our usual home improvement & decor related prizes in favor of some customized and sentimental jewelry from Lisa Leonard Designs. Lisa brings a certain DIY spirit to her necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and other body bling – hand cutting, polishing, and assembling each piece carefully for that “made with love” feeling. She actually helped us celebrate V-day last year by giving away $100 gift cards to two winners – and this year she’s raising the stakes and giving away THREE benjamins worth of her meaningful designs to three random lucky winners. Happy Valentine’s Day indeed.
- PRIZE: An $100 gift card towards any purchase at Lisa Leonard Designs.
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … tell us how (and with whom) you’re celebrating today. Something romantic with your true love? A quiet evening in with a good book and some hot cocoa? A romantic night with your kitty or pooch? Feel free to comment with “Crappy Valentine’s Day!” and tell us why this holiday just ain’t your cup of tea if that’s the case.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, February 16th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Three
- PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in the world!
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
******************************
Random.org has selected three people to dish out some bling to and they are… Megan (whose husband made her pizza for V-Day), Tera (who was spending the evening at a concert with her husband) and Kyle (who was doing dinner with her husband… after doing some laundry first). Congrats ladies!
Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Lisa Leonard Designs.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
Not spending the day with anyone except possibly Jose Cuervo – and I’m kind of cool with that.
Amber says
Happy Valentine’s Day! My husband and I aren’t big on celebrating V-day. I do think it’s important to take every opportunity to let the people in your life know you love them, but we don’t do anything for the holiday. So tonight we will be jumping into a little DIY project and will be ripping out and installing new baseboards.

Monica the Writer Chic says
Happy Valentines Day, indeed. =) Love Lisa Leonard. I actually expected one of her pieces for VDay from my hubby. (Got a Kindle instead. I’m not complaining!) Maybe Mother’s Day? I need to have a piece made to add our daughter (born just a few days before Clara) to our family. I already have a LL tiny hearts necklace with mine, my husband’s, and our two sons’ initials. Would LOVE to get the GC to order a new piece myself. =)

Happy Valentine’s Day! I’m spending it with my men – my husband and my three-tear-old son. But here’s the skinny – I want to get one of these necklaces for the birthmama of our next child, a baby girl due March 4th, to be adopted by us. I want to do something special for her, and have been looking at these necklaces for a while. I really, really hope the random number generator picks me!
