A lovely giveaway: Lisa Leonard Designs!

Hi everyone!  I’m super excited and honored to bring you a lovely giveaway today: a $50 gift certificate to Lisa Leonard Designs!

I’ve been a HUGE fan of Lisa’s for years now — and not just because we have the same first name, ha ha! She makes the most beautiful sterling silver jewelry — by hand! — that’s full of love + meaning.  Here are just a few:

I plan to show this post to J — our lucky 13 year wedding anniversary is coming up in August, and I think these would make the perfect gift, don’t you? Hee hee. Clockwise from top left:

• friendship – I just love the two flowers — it’s almost like they are cuddling.  And J truly is my best friend.  Plus it makes me think of our Texas prairies that we both care so much about.
• you’re the cream in my coffee — J and I both love starting our day by having breakfast together — I have coffee and J has tea.  It’s one of my favorite times of the day.  And I have a weakness for coffee.  Yum.
• be still — one of the many things I love about J is how we can hang out together in nature just “be” — it makes me feel so happy and peaceful.
• from up here — this necklace makes me think of when we had lunch together and watched the sugar bandits — plus I love the pearl, the stones, and the xo

And one more that you should see — I got my little sister this necklace for her birthday a few years back.  She loved it.  I could go on and on!

Now then, there are three ways to enter to win a $50 gift certificate to Lisa’s shop with which you can purchase her beautiful jewelry — besides necklaces, she also has bracelets, earrings, and more! — and have it shipped to the US or Canada:
