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:
1. Explore Lisa’s shop, and then leave a comment on this post, telling me what you’d get with the gift certificate if you win.

Put the code in the subject line of your email — anything in the body of the email won’t be read.* And I promise you – the code is there. Head here if you’d like more information about what it means to subscribe.
*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 think I would like either the Basic ID Tag Bracelet with our names on it, or the Pearl Earrings.
Gorgeous!
Jen´s last blog ..A Week of Love & a Wild Wedding!
OHHHHH I have to win!! I would buy the simple cuff, with my three children’s names on it, as I did have a bracelet with my three children’s names on it, and it fell apart. We haven’t had the money to get a new one and I fear we never will. PLEASE OH PLEASE–I would LOVE this! Thanks so much for the chance. Michelle
So many cute things! But, I think the Sea Star necklace is really pretty, and it reminds me of summers at the NJ shore. The baby spoon is a close second. Thanks!
I would pick the teenie tiny initials necklace. I’ve been eyeing them for awhile!
I love Lisa Leonard’s designs…but have never splurged on one! If I were to get one my absolute favorite is the itty bitty hearts necklace!
I have wanted the sweet and simple birdie necklace ever since I first saw it on your site in her ads! Pick me! Pick me!

Kendra@www.thebutterflynest.blogspot.com´s last blog ..How Sweet it Is
Decisions, Decisions… I would choose the laundry line necklace or the kisses and hugs necklance or the little feet necklace
MaryBeth
I would love, love, love to get the teenie tiny initials necklace!
I would love the Open Circle Necklace from Lisa’s Customer Collection. Custom made jewelry is so much fun!
I think I would have to get the Little Feet Necklace. I was considering the family tree but I just couldn’t fit every member I would like to on there…of course, I couldn’t fit every member I would want to on the sea scrolls.
I love the sweet and simple birdie necklace. So cute!
Love the sweet sister necklace – I would totally get that (for me or for one of my sisters…)
=)
I would love the Dewdrop Necklace w/ my kids names on it!
I love her pieces! I particularly like the large link charm bracelet and the tiny squares necklace.
I love everything on her site–everything!!! my favs are the birdie necklace and any of the cuff bracelets. I never win anything so I am crossing my fingers for a change in my luck!!!
I like both pieces you highlighted, but would probably go for the necklace with my children’s names. Thanks for the opportunity!
I love the jumble of charms necklace…its so hard to choose with so many great items.
The be still necklace! So beautiful!!
I adore the family tree necklace! But the other posters are right: there are so many beautiful options.
LOVE Lisa Leonard! I bought my step-mom the wish necklace for mother’s day, it was beautiful
It’s so hard to decided what I’d want, maybe the cuff bracelet, or the open circle…I have 4 kids, so it limits me if I want all their names. Great giveaway!!
Angela {YourEverydayMama}´s last blog ..Spanakopita
I love the clothesline pendant necklace! I’d love to have all my kids’ and husband’s names on it!
Jessie Stimpson´s last blog ..From WP to Blogger
What a fantastic giveaway! I’ve been wanting a Lisa Leonard design. If I won, I’d get the petite original necklace with my son’s name. Love the simplicity of this necklace.
I would definitely buy the Family Tree necklace, I love it! Or the jumble of charms, that would be a good one too. And I would definitely have to buy the baby spoon for my 9 month old, I don’t have a special keepsake like that for him yet. Thanks for the opportunity for such a great giveaway!
It’d be a close call between the laundry line necklace and the captured heart necklace. So hard to pick!
I would LOVE to get the Dewdrops Necklace inscribed for my little dewdrops … Miles and Lily. This necklace has long been on my wish list, but no in my budget, so PLEASE pick me! (Then maybe Santa can pay the balance.)
The teeny tiny initials are my favorite – thanks for the opportunity
What wonderful stuff!
If I win I would get the family tree necklace.
I would get the sterling ring.
I love Lisa’s jewelry! I think I might choose the “mama” necklace, but the Little Birdie one is so nice too. Gosh, this is hard! Thanks for the opportunity to win

turnitupmom´s last blog ..The Lunchbox Bunch: Back to School Eats and Giveaway
What a wonderful giveaway! I would get the Be Still necklace.
I love the personalized baby’s first spoons!! they are so sweet and functional…a great keepsake…I think it would look gorgeous in a shadow box in my nursery!!
I would love, love, love the sweetheart tree necklace and the open heart necklace. It would take me some time to decide between the two. I just love them!
I would defintely put it towards the sweetheart tree necklace made with an M &M for my husband Matthew and me!
<3
I love this jewelery and my first choice would be the family tree necklace!
I also love the Sweet and Simple Birdie necklace. So that is what I would choose.

Love Lisa Leonard designs!!
Candy M´s last blog ..Assembly Line Birthday Cards
Probably a custom necklace with my kids names. Love this stuff!
I know exactly what I would pick…I have thought it about over and over again for the last few months……So you know the Open Circle Necklace…I would use the certificate towards that…Since having lost both my parents in the last year and a half…I have wanted to wear something in their memory….a memory only we share is something I said to them ever since I was a little girl…I would tell them…I love you infinity times the world…(that was the biggest thing I could think of) I would have some version of that on one side of the circle and their names or initials on the back….and I would definitely add the pearl.
I am loving those bronze freshwater pearl earrings.
Everything is beautiful! I especially like the “Be Still” necklace.
Teenie Tiny initials necklace
I’ve been a huge fan of her stuff for so long!! Would LOVE to win! I linked on my blog and am off to look for the code. I subscribe with iGoogle and haven’t “found” the code yet… hmmmm.
Oh my word… her jewelry is so sweet. I love the ones with all the family names or initials. Seriously… I just started crying. Ok, I’m pregnant and lots of things make me cry. I was just thinking about ordering one after we pick out our baby’s name and wearing it at the birth… yep, still crying. My two top favorites are the Laundry Line Necklace and Teenie Tiny Initials Necklace. So, so sweet.
I would get the jumble of charms necklace.
I love the laundry line necklace. That would be at the top of my list.
Wow! I love ALL the designs. If I’m to pick just one, I’d say the Open circle bracelet….OR True love hearts necklace.
Thanks for a great giveaway. My fingers are crossed!!!
It’s so hard to choose, but I think I would get the Be Still necklace. I blogged about it on this post, http://caseymaupin.blogspot.com/2009/08/lisa-leonard-giveaway-at-simple-mom.html

Eek! I perused Lisa’s site a few months ago when I started following simple mom. I LOVE LOVE LOVE her jewelry…even dropped a few hints to my hubby for Christmas/Birthday. There are several pieces that I would love to have, but if I had to choose my absolute favorite it is the cherish necklace.
Thanks for the opportunity!
Karissa
I love the customized spoon. I am definitely going to keep this site in mind for Christmas and baby gifts!

The laundry line necklace and the original necklace are my two favorites, although they are all amazing!!

I’m so excited about this giveaway! I hope I win! I was just browsing Lisa’s shop last week – and absolutely DROOLING over everything!
I really love the family tree charm necklace.. but I’d also like to get something generic that’s just for me.. like the bird necklace!
Toss up between the Sweet & Simple Birdie Necklace or the sterling ring. Thanks!

WOW. After spending quite a bit of time looking around the site I decided that I would love the itty bitty heart necklace with my 2 kids initials. Amazing jewelry.
If I win I’d get the “be still” necklace. Love it!! Thanks for the opportunity!!
Ok, so I’m going back and forth between the baby spoon and this: http://www.lisaleonardonline.com/other-sweet-things/stackable-rings.html The beautiful ring!
I almost can’t choose!
Desiree Fawn´s last blog ..Hoping For A Safe Return
I have been visiting Lisa’s site for a few weeks now, admiring her beautiful designs. Within the next few weeks my husband and I will be sitting down with our 6 year old son to share with him about his twin sibling that I miscarried while pregnant with him. We feel it is the right time to do this. I would love to get a special keepsake (one of the keychains) for him to name his sibling and have as a special reminder of them. I could not think of a more precious reminder for him.

Large Link Charm Bracelet!!
I love the “be still” necklace and so many more – wow!
I would love the family tree necklace.
~Aimee
Oohh- I’d get the “be still necklace”. Hands down. Love it!
I would absolutely love to win this giveaway. Thanks for hosting it! If I won I would probably choose the sweet + simple birdie necklace. It’s just beautiful.
Virginia´s last blog ..henna citrus apron
I would have to choose the ‘Be Still Necklace’. Thanks for the opportunity!
Open Circle Bracelet is lovely. I’d pick that for sure. Thanks!
I think I like the sweet and simple birdie necklace the best. I have been hinting around at one of her mama ones for christmas…guess we’ll see
the first item that spoke to me was the birdie necklace.
I love her jewelry! I would have to say that Sweet and Simple Birdie necklace is the tops for me!
Jan J.´s last blog ..This man mattered, or, who are the heroes?
I’d get the Sterling Ring…I think. =)
I adore the Be Still necklace – that’s what I’d get.
Heather´s last blog ..The beautiful culinary lunch box experience – Research & Development phase
Being the mama of 3 beautiful children, I think (there are so many beautiful choices) this one would be my choice!
I would get the ring with my little boy’s name or initials and Always a Joy…
I enjoy seeing all the other posters’ choices. After some thought, I would get a sterling ring. I’m in need of a replacement for a lost one…
would absolutelyget the “clothesline”!….4 kids…all I do is laundry!;)
I’d have to go for the sister necklace…. It would be the perfect gift for my sister who lives far away…I miss her!
I love, love , love Lisa Leonard’s designs. Some of my favorites are that sweet & simple birdie (just like the one you have), her family tree necklace or the sweet tiny squares with my kiddos names on them.
It’s my mom’s b-day soon, I’d be looking for something for her (as much as I’d love to wear it too, I know she would really appreciate the handmade-for-her factor!)
I love the Mama necklace!
I heart Lisa Leonard! I think I’d get the sweet sister necklace. My own sweet sister is having a heck of a hard time lately and I’d send it to her as a pick me up.
Very hard to choose, but I’ll say the Laundry Line necklace.
npbradshaw´s last blog ..on the eve of september.
the open circle bracelet… i love how it is held by two chains and/or how it brings the two chains together.
Stacy (Mama-Om)´s last blog ..Don’t Worry, Mama, I Have My Trusty Pocket Light!
I’ve been dyingggg for one of these for a while now. The original round custom necklace is my favorite. I would add my two little kids names and wear it every day. What a reminder of who you are and whose you are..
Haydee Tau´s last blog ..OMG!!!!
So hard to pick. I think maybe the “jumble of charms”.
I would buy the sister Known Understood Love necklace and give it to my sister (hopefully not Jeannine above)… I sent her an email awhile ago when stress was overwhelming in my life. We haven’t spoken since. It would be a perfect start to say that I didn’t mean to offend or upset her, life is challenging with kids who have autism. and I’m not perfect and will never be.
Thanks.
I love all of the items! if I had to pick just one, say, bc I won a $50 gift credit, I think I would get the family tree one. Beautiful and unique.
Thanks – I love your site!
I’d love to have the Family Tree necklace. It’s a really beautiful way to share the love for your family. I saw Lisa’s work recently at the Renegade Crafts fair in SF. It was super cool. I was being pulled around by two kids though so didn’t get to spend much time at any booth. Her work really caught my eye.
