This giveaway has now ended.
I‘m almost done with the first half of my book, due to my editor tomorrow. So today, while I’m busy putting the finishing touches on my manuscript, I thought I’d surprise the best readers in the blogosphere with a little giveaway.
I’m not much of a jewelry person, but the one necklace I grab near daily is my sweet and simple birdie necklace by Lisa Leonard. It goes with just about everything, and it’s a beautiful balance of feminine and rustic. It’s girly without the saccharine sweetness. Just my style.
Last week, my in-laws surprised me with a little shopping gift from Lisa’s store for my birthday, and it made my day. It took me forever to decide what to get — I could have one of each of her pieces, and that’s saying a lot, seeing I’m all about the uncluttered living.
This week, Lisa wants to give three Simple Mom readers a $50 gift certificate to her store! What a great way to welcome the upcoming fall season. Her pieces will go with almost anything you wear, from daily jeans-and-a-t-shirt at home, to a kicked-up outfit for your weekly date with your hubby. And I am all about versatility.
I also love Lisa’s business because she’s got a great work ethic. It’s run completely debt-free, and as a busy mom to two boys, she works hard to provide quality material that’s worth every penny she earns. I met her earlier this year, and I was so impressed with her sweet, professional demeanor. I hope she goes far with her work.
How to win
This giveaway is open to anyone in the U.S. or Canada. Here’s how to win one of the three $50 gift certificates from Lisa Leonard Designs:

*SERIOUSLY — I won’t be able to read it and enter your additional drawing if you put the secret code in the body of the email. Quite a few of you are doing this. I’m not trying to be difficult, but with my method of handling giveaways without going insane, I’ve set up filters that automatically enters the correct entries into the giveaway pool. Just a friendly reminder!
The giveaway will end this Friday, September 4 at 11:59 p.m. PST.
I hope you win!

I would get the be still necklace. It’s beautiful.
It’s a tough call – I’d have a hard time choosing between the original, the tiny squares or the teeny tiny initials…so cute!!!
Very hard to choose, but I love that captured heart.
I have several of Lisa’s pieces. The one I wear the most is the Family Tree. I LURVE it. I am currently coveting the adorable little laundry tags.

Oh, what do I not love from Lisa Leonard?! But I think I’d get the leather cuff for my dad: he just started treatments for HepC and is going thru some yucky side effects. He’d love a leather cuff and I think COURAGE is a great word to remind him of who he is!

I think I’ve settled on the “mama” necklace, so sweet! But I reserve the right to change my mind! I am also in love with the baby’s first spoon!
I love the Be Still pendent — it seems so calming.
Her work is all so amazing, and every time you have a giveaway I have a hard time choosing one item, but I think that her be still necklace is one of my favorites for sure.
.-= Courtney´s last blog ..Clover Lane: On Luck =-.
I love so many things on her site, what a great spot! My favorite is the Dewdrops Necklace.
I like the ‘jumble of charms’ or ‘family tree’ necklace. I love her bracelets too. Its very hard to decide!
I think I am in love with the family tree necklace and the be still necklace. LOVE this shop!
.-= Tracy DeLuca´s last blog ..Birthday Wishes =-.
With the $50 gift certificate, I’d purchase the “be still necklace” for my mom. It’s name references one of her favorite verses in the Bible (Psalm 46:10), and she is also an avid bird watcher and nature walker/kayaker. The necklace design has images that reference those pastimes that she enjoys. It’s also so simple and sophisticated. It would make the perfect “just because” gift for her.
I LOVE all of her designs but if I were to pick one for myself, I would definitely get the jumble of charms necklace! It’s just my style and I can get a little bit of everything.
thanks for doing the giveaway and I hope I win!
I would pick the Captured Heart necklace, with my kids’ names. Very nice!

.-= Jeni´s last blog ..Things I Love Thursday: Lysol Dual Action Disinfecting Wipes =-.
I really like the thin sterling cuff. I would have my kids’ names engraved on it.
tough call…i would either get the “i carry your heart” necklace as we had that ee cummings poem in our wedding…or maybe get that awesome ring??? everything is so beautiful!! and i love lisa’s blog too!!!
.-= Heather´s last blog ..Day Forty-Nine: Magazine Coasters & Basket =-.
I have been coveting Lisa’s jewelery for a few months (since I clicked on your website link). I added it to my favorites hoping my hubby would happen upon it one day (still waiting for that one…). Anyway, if I had to choose just one piece it would be a tie between the open heart bracelet (which I may just NEVER take off) or the two tone captured heart necklace. OK – I lied it’s not a tie I am IN LOVE with the open heart bracelet.
Lisa
My best friend and her family is moving away. I would use the gift certificate to buy her the jumble of charms necklace, but turn it into a bracelet, since she loves charms. Or I would buy the wish necklace for her, to match mine.
Beautiful jewelry! I think I’d choose sweet & simple birdie necklace or maybe the family tree one.
I love the Forever necklace. I’d like to customize it with our anniversary.
I LOVE the Family tree necklace. *fingers crossed!*
OMG – love the site! If i got to have a “Mommy, Mommy, buy me this!” moment, I would have to have the teenie tiny initials necklace. It’s just precious, and would hold initials for all 4 of my little ones!
.-= Mama Snyder´s last blog ..Then and Now =-.
I love everything!!! I think I would get the bracelet with the names in your post or the dew drop necklace or the family tree necklace.
Love them!
Wow, I hadn’t seen her stuff before, these are beautiful… bookmarking!!
If I had a gift certificate, I’d get the Large Link Charm Bracelet: http://www.lisaleonardonline.com/bracelets/large-link-charm-bracelet.html
We’re having our first little girl, Emma, but we plan on having a few more, so it’d be something I could add to
I love the Be Still necklace. Right up my alley!
I also love the Sweet and Simple Birdie necklace.
Oh, I”ve loved her jewelry since the first time you mentioned it! I’ve been wanting a bracelet, so I”d put this towards the thin sterling cuff.
I would put it toward the custom family tree necklace. I really want that.
.-= Emily´s last blog ..The Third Twin =-.
love the be still necklace, and the birdie one you have in this post.
.-= anja´s last blog ..the home stretch =-.
The fly free necklace–love that one.
I agree with you about the sweet and simple little birdie necklace. I love the design and it would go with my work attire and everyday wear.
The Open Circle Bracelet is what i would pick!
.-= Jesica´s last blog ..Chick Flicks =-.
I love the “I hold your heart in mine” necklace. This is a great site! I’m so glad to have found it from your site!
.-= Amanda P.´s last blog ..Our first Playgroup is this Tuesday =-.
I’ve always loved the open circle necklace.
So many– I love the captured heart and also the mama necklace AND the be still… so many choices! Lovely.
.-= Meg´s last blog ..Bo*ring =-.
I love the little feet necklace, and the captured heart necklace, and so many others! I don’t think I can choose just one…
So hard to choose, I love the Jumble of Charms, but the rectangular versions remind me of my husbands dog tags.
