lisa leonard designs jewelry giveaway

Giveaway #1We are so excited about our first Reader Appreciation Week giveaway! This is some of the most beautiful, inspiring handmade jewelry we've seen. Lisa Leonard hand crafts each piece, and even adds custom details on some orders, like your children's names. We think her pieces are so classy, incorporating nature and simple details. We love her "little birdie" pieces!
Lisa says, "My desire is to create simple, lovely pieces that can be worn with jeans or your little black dress. I want each piece to meaningful. Our custom jewelry is hand-stamped with your kids’ names or a special phrase or verse. I love to touch my necklace throughout the day and reflect on my husband and my sweet boys.
"Each piece we create is a work of art—hand cut, hammered, polished, drilled and assembled with care. I am inspired by other artists--painters, scrapbookers, clothing designers and poets. I also love to soak up nature-the sky, the sea, the green hills. I let all these ideas and images swirl around in my mind and then I create."
Lisa also has a great blog that often features giveaways and amazing discounts. For our first giveaway this week, Lisa is generously offering a $50 gift certificate to her online store. To enter, visit Lisa's site and then leave the Little Birdies a comment telling us which piece you would choose if you won. Entries will be accepted until Sunday, April 26 at 11:59pm PST. Good luck!
