My favorite piece is the “be still” necklace. It is a beautiful reminder of how important it is to take time to stop, in silence, and enjoy the moments that are in front of us each day. I need reminders to be still, as life can quickly pass us by.

I LOVE your open circle bracelet. I eyed it forever and finally purchased it for my mother for Christmas. It arrived the other day and it was just as wonderful as I imagined! To me it represented her endless love for me and my child. On one side we had the three grandboys names and on the other her favorite saying to them- Love you to the moon and back. SHe is the most amazing grandmother!!! I have wanted a necklace for myself FOREVER!! I’ll keep my fingers crossed and maybe I’ll get lucky and win and can get one!! LOVE your work~ It is such a breath of fresh air in today’s crazy world. . .

the “be free” necklace.
sometimes as a busy mama the last thing I feel is “free”.
but I know…way deep in my heart I really do know.
& I would love love love to have it hanging around my neck to remind me….
thanks!
~

I like the simplicity of the open circle necklace. Great giveaway, have a great Christmas.

I got the wish necklace last year for mother’s day and I love it! It has my daughter, Adelynn’s name on it. It reminds me of the I wish you enough poem. My husband also recently got me the large initial necklace and bracelet which I love! My first initial is J and my 2 year old daughter told me the other day that she loved “my candy cane necklace!”

hi lisa… 🙂
thanks again for this awesome giveaway!
i was just wondering if a winner was already selected for this giveaway… i’m a new follower of your blog (even though i’ve loved your jewelry for quite some time) and not too sure how you announce winners. i’m assuming someone else has already won, but i’m just dying to know if one has been selected yet.
thanks so much! hope you have a great day!

I just received my first piece in the mail and it is lovely. I am thinking though that my next piece will be the paper lantern necklace. My daughter is from China so the little lanterns have a special subtle meaning to them. I would have originally ordered them but I could not think of what to put on the second charm. If only you did Chinese symbols. (hint, hint) I think I also need to order a pair of earrings to go with my jewlery.

Love them all, especially anything with my sons’ names. They’re my life. Thanks for the chance to win.

I really love my kids and husband, so anything with their names or birth stones would be great.

i really love the you are loved necklace–it’s something we all need to be reminded of sometimes. and i also love the fly free necklace–i like the visual inspiration, somehow it’s even more visceral than the words would have been!

i love all of your work . That would be so hard to choose 🙂 If i had to though it would be the big circle to put my kids names on it . thx !

I’m not sure when this closes, but I thought that I could take the chance to let you know anyway that I love you jewelry and photos/blog. I became hooked when I came across your birdie piece. And I have to say that this last one “loved” is a precious one too. I think that if anyone had that given to them it has so much “meaning” it’s precious. Thanks =)

What beautiful, simple necklaces! I love them all, but the bird ones really caught my eye. My daughter’s name is Wren and the little birds make me think of her. 🙂

I love the fly free necklace…your stuff is sentimental and beautiful.

I LOOOOVE the family pieces!!!! 🙂 The loved necklace is beautiful….I also adore the BLOOM necklace!!! 😀 Thanks!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

My favorite piece is the “key to my heart” necklace. I’d like to keep this around my neck to remind me and others that the key to my heart is within reach if they treat me right.

I like the wish necklace! A dear friend of mine ordered the piece recently and it is absolutely beautiful.

I really love the Family Tree necklace. It’s gorgeous and I would love to have it with my four kiddos names on it.

The tree piece is my favorite… I love nature and think this is about as beautiful as it gets!

I think I would love the have the little initial’s necklace. I have twins and so I would get their initials. I’d love to have this gift certificate, it be such a blessing!

Although it is SO hard to choose just one, the Be Still necklace speaks volumes. To me, this necklace represents tranquility and serenity. And, let’s face it, we can ALL use more serenity in our lives!

Oh, I just LOVE the new LOVED necklace. How gorgeous is that? I’d love to win!!!!

that’s a tough one!
i’m getting the laundry-line necklace for christmas, but it was really hard to decide.
i also LOVE the dewdrop-necklace, but i needed more space for the names of my four kids :).

I think the piece I love the most on your site is the paper lanterns customizable necklace. This way, I would be able to wear my entire family on my neck in the form of adorable good luck lanterns!

my favorite piece is the mutiple tag necklace. it lets you display more than one feeling or love of something or someone at the same time. i love your jewelry it looks great with eveything and you can wear one piece or layer them and they are perfect either way! happy holidays to your staff and family!

The jumble of charms, because then I could keep all my favorite people, dates, etc close to my heart. Plus, its uber fashionable!

I think the new “you are loved” necklace might be my new favorite. Simple, beautiful and a wonderful daily reminder!

There are so many that I am in love with!! I love the tiny tags, the family tree and the loved necklace. I love the bracelets. I am so glad that Ali Edwards had you on her website, so I could find you. 🙂

Happy Holidays!

The family tree necklace with engraved names is simple, symbolic, and stunning.

I have the circle necklace w/ love . . . xo on one side & my kiddos’ names on the back. I wear it all the time & love it. During stressful times of life & parenting, it says to me, “Remember, they won’t be little for long. One day . . .one day very soon. . . you are going to miss this madness. Slow down. Cherish each moment of every day. Treasure the little things.”

I absolutely love the family crest necklace! The scroll detail is so beautiful and vintage. More importantly, the necklace reminds me how close my family is to my heart. The Love and thankfulness for family tends to get forgotten when it shouldn’t, but the holidays really bring that out of people, and it’s a heart warming thing to see:)

I love the Be Still necklace because I need to be reminded to be still!

i am absolutely mesmerized by the art & handicraft that went into the “i hold your heart in mine” necklace because it reminds me that, at least for me, i still have my mom’s heart in mine in a spiritual sense even though she’s no longer here with us (she passed away from cancer in 2003)….and when i read that phrase i’m comforted & reminded that because of my mom, i found my faith in the Lord, who has me in his heart. i love your attention to detail and i’m so inspired in reading your blog and i want to be a loving mom and a dutiful wife someday.

LOVE everything you make, which I tell everyone when they comment on my Be Still necklace. My favorite though is the Dewdrops necklace which I’d like to have personalized with the names of my sons.

As a mom for the second time around as of Friday I feel so loved. Months ago I asked my hubby for the circle bracelet for Christmas so we’ll see if he was able to pull it off, I’m crossing my fingers!!!

My favourite piece is the blowing dandelion pendant you personalized for me with the sanskrit words “aham prema” meaning “I am divine love.” When I wear it, I find my fingers drifting to the charm at my throat and giving me a gentle reminder to cultivate love, compassion and kindness in my life. It fills up my heart!

Lisa, I love every one of my necklaces. Every morning, I wake up and decide which one to wear that day. Most have variations of my kids’ names on them. When I wear one of those, Abby always lights up and asks which name is hers. Now she can pick out the “A” and knows it’s her. So sweet.

I love the banner necklace (I’m getting it for Christmas). My husband had it stamped with the word “trust” to remind me to trust in God, even when it’s hard.

I love the Wish necklace (getting it for xmas!) and the family tree necklace. I love all the pieces and it is so hard to choose just one!

My favorite is the “fly free” necklace. It represent flight as well as letting go- freeing and becoming free…

My favorite piece is the ‘love’ necklace that is shown here. I would wear this necklace proudly everyday as it would be a constant reminder of how much God loves me, flaws and all. It is beautiful!

I don’t yet own a lisa leonard necklace, but did ask Santa for one. I asked for the Family Tree Necklace. It is my favorite (and on my wishlist!) for two reasons: One, we just had our first baby in July, so i want something that represents that. Secondly, the tree symbolizes more than just my familiy but that He (God) is the Vine and we are Branches. I know it is isnt’ exactly a vine, but the symbolism is there for me to look at and remember how blessed I am to have such a loving creator to be rooted in AND that He blessed me with a wonderful family 🙂

I have to say that my favorites are the cherish and loved necklaces!

I love the original necklace and the “sister known, understood, loved necklace. I actually love all your necklaces! Jewelry really is not my thing, but you have a gift and I think you make wonderful jewelry!

I love my tiny squares necklace with the names of my daughter and son. I wear it everyday. I also love the family crest necklace although I don’t have one. It is certainly on my wish list.

I don’t know if I can pick just one….there are so many I would LOVE! I think you can never go wrong with an initial one so I’ll go with that! You are so inspiring through your work!

WOW! Where do I begin? My favorite pieces are the….Mama necklace….my little girl always called me that…(and sometimes still does at the age of 9) and I also love the wishing star necklace that says Peace….that is my word for everyday life and also this new loved necklace! I feel like if we have PEACE and feel LOVED in our every day life…..what a difference the world would be. The $250…I would give to my cousin. In May of this year she lost two children….her daughter was killed in an automobile accident on the way to school. (only 16) and the following Monday her son was killed in a separate automobile accident. (only 21) She still has a son at home. I would love to win and have her get a gift for her! She can find something to put her sweet little Angles names on. That would be a great gift to give her!

Lisa….I love your website. I’m on it every day! You inspire me with your blog and when you put other peoples blogs on there to read….it helps me get through my day!

Love, love, love to you all!
Snowy in Nebraska!

I absolutely love the My Heart necklace. It is so simple and sweet and has just right the sentiment. Love your pieces!!

I like the Family Tree necklace and the Mama necklace. Nothing is so wonderful to me as being a mama. It changed my whole perspective on life. I used to be so career-driven and motivated by things like status, appearance, etc., but since having my little one — she is all that matters. She has taught me to value the simple things.

What a wonderful giveaway and difficult comment prompt! I am lucky enough to have a monogram necklace which I love and get lovely compliments on each time I wear it! I also adore the be still necklace and the tiny charms. I love giving away the baby spoons as gifts…..shall I go on?!

My favorite necklace is the Momma necklace. The gift of a child is a miracle and being a mother or ‘Momma’ is one of the most important jobs that God gives us. People tend to down-size the magnitude of what a being a Mom really means and the hard work that it involves. Lisa, I think that it is so fantastic that someone like you recognizes this! I love my Mommy necklace!

what generous give away Lisa! you are amazing. If I had to pick, I would say the “be still” necklace is my favorite. It love it’s simplicity and the quiet message it carries. I can always use the reminder to “be still” under so many different circumstances in life. Happy Holidays!

I love the itty bitty hearts necklace. I want to get this with my initials and my husbands. I like the family tree necklace too but won’t get it until after we have a family.

I would love to be able to get the Sisters necklace for my sister’s birthday in February. I think she would love it. There are several necklaces I would pick for myself too. Thanks for the beautiful jewelry and for the generous contest.

Two necklaces caught me eye. The first was the laundry line necklace, since I can never quite seem to get caught up on the laundry! I have three children three and under, and still haven’t figured out how tiny people can make so much work. 🙂 I love that it has everyone’s names on it, too. The second necklace that really appealed to me was the Be Still necklace, because I need the reminder to “Be still and know that I am God”. Beautiful work! 🙂

I have purchased two items from you and I love the Crest with my Initial on it. I get a great deal of nods on this piece when I wear it.

Lisa-
My favorite piece is my necklace. It has the “I hold your heart in mine” heart and it also has a long name plate charm with “Braydain” on it. I got it on my first mother’s day when my husband and I had our foster son. He has since returned to his biological family. We miss him like crazy. I wear it all the time so that our hearts are always together. Even though he may not be with our family, we hold his heart with ours and he will always be a part of our family. This necklace just makes me feel a little closer to him. Thank you for creating such an amazing piece that has helped me through the most difficult time in our lives.

I gave the LOVED necklace to my mom for Mothers Day and she absolutely loved it!. Thanks for this great opportunity to win!

i ove the you are loved necklace – it makes me feel special and loved 🙂 makes me happy!

I love the ‘loved’ necklace. Sometimes we just need to be reminded.

I love it all..okay, I’ll narrow it down. I love the the dewdrops necklace! Oh, and the friendship necklace, no wait the sweet and simple birdie necklace, and the loved necklace, and then there’s the open circle bracelet and how about those aqua stones earrings or bronze freshwater pearls. Oh…i think i need to get a second job!!! The loved necklace reminds me that not only am I blessed to be loved by my husband and 3 sons, but my Savior! We are rich is in His love!

i have your heart necklace with my boys names and it is one of my most treasured items. i recommend you to EVERYONE!!

My favorite piece is the fly free necklace. After several years with an eating disorder Ive been able (over the last year and a half) to achieve recovery. To me, this necklace is really representative of my journey – getting out of the cage and flying FREE! 🙂

You have such talent. I love the pieces that I own and have given as gifts. So special, each one surpasses the last. I am loving the new You are Loved piece – everyone needs a little reminding sometimes. Happy Holidays!

I love the “Mama” necklace. I look forward to having my children’s names done on tags when our family is complete. However, we have a few kids to go before that happens. I’d love to have the Mama necklace to wear in the mean time representing how much I love each child as they come along.

the cherished necklace….i have loved that one since before graduation…i feel like that is a word that that Lord gave me during my masters program…that i’m cherished by him. & i LOVE that you added a tiny little diamond to it, that sure doesn’t hurt!! ; ) ah…maybe one day (or if i win the GC) i’ll be able to get that necklace!! love to you and yours this holiday season, lisa. i pray you feel cherished by those around you, and especially by the Lord. xooxoxo

I love the paper lantern necklace…what cute charms! And putting names on them is great!!

My favorite piece is the Sweet Sister Necklace. My sister is my best friend and my favorite person in the world. No one can truly understand the relationship we have, unless they themselves have a sister close to their heart (like you, Lisa!). Today I felt extremely homesick for my sister. I hate living so far away from her. I love that necklace because it is a reminder of how I feel when I am around my sister: known, understood and loved.

loving the i.d. bracelet! i want to put the nickname that my hubby calls me on it!

How on earth could I possibly choose a favorite piece?
But, if I have to choose one…it would be the very one you posted today…YOU ARE LOVED.
It reminds me of the relationships that have challenged me in the past year. Relationships that I didn’t necessarily ask for, choose, or seek out. Pondering the thought that God placed these in my life for reasons I don’t fully understand yet, and perhaps, maybe, He is teaching me, showing me how to love the unlovable, the imperfect, the wounded, and the scarred. Just as He loves me, His child, …reminding me, whispering tenderly, YOU ARE LOVED.

My favorite piece is the lovebird. I have both the necklace and bracelet. I noticed you don’t sell the bracelet anymore, and it makes it even more special as my piece is that much more unique. I love the quality and the hammered by hand effect that goes into your pieces. Plus, I love supporting independent artists like you.

BE STILL…..Love it!!! I have needed to here that many times in my life.
Love it all…

I love the Be Still necklace. Such a good reminder. Actually I love everything. $250 might get be close to happy! 🙂

I love the family crest necklace. Simple, yet elegant.

I love the Dewdrop Necklace, and the tiny initials one, oh and the open circle one…it’s so hard to choose! If I won I would probably choose tiny initials and do one for me and each of my sisters with the first letters of our first names on them…my sisters mean the world to me & I would be lost without our therapeutic phone calls and board game nights!

My favorite piece is the Sweet Sister Necklace, because I have the best sisters in the entire world…..

Without a doubt the itty bitty hearts initial necklace! Since I found your blog I’ve become a mother to 2 itty bitty girls with 2 itty bitty hearts that have stolen mine! xoxo

teenie tiny initials necklace is my favorite …… so cute

i absolutely love all of your designs. especially your inspired pieces. just love how you find beauty in the simple. i can still remember one of the first necklaces i laid eyes on was your “something simple” BLOOM necklace from some time ago…
i guess if i were to pick my favs right now they would be the friendship, sweet sister, & you are loved necklaces, as well as the 2009 ornament. thank you for sharing your gift with us. have a beautiful Christmas with your precious family!

Love it all,for real. LOVE the “be still’ necklace,means so very much to me on a personal level. Amazing,all of it!

That “Sweet and Simple Birdie Necklace” is beautiful! I could see myself wearing it daily. With your gift certificate, I could check off gifts for me, my Mom, and my sister from the site and everyone would be stoked at what they received!

I love the Hope necklace. I have two grandmothers that have survived cancer which just proves that with hope and faith anything is possible. This jewelry is all so amazing, I love it all. I would love to win the gift certificate to get them both a necklace to wear and remind them that they are warriors of strength!

OMG how on earth do I pick just one item that is my favorite. I am just visiting your site for the first time, and am completely blown away. Each and every piece in your collection is breathtaking. Every piece of jewlery tells a story. I am really having a hard time picking. I would have to love the KEY TO MY HEART necklace, the LOVEBIRD necklace is just as inspiring. I would love to give my partner the MY HEART necklace, and would be blessed to wear a personalized LITTLE FEET necklace holding my son’s name close to my heart. I can go on and on! For this reason I wish to win the gift certificate to get all that and more!

My favorite necklace has to be the one with the little bird on the right side with some plant life on the left. Your blog sums it up…it is the little things that count. This is my favorite necklace because my family and I just adopted a stray cat who we named Little Bird. On those early mornings when he’d run by the food plate we put out for him and grab a mouthful of food at 60 miles an hour, we never thought he’d develope into the sweet, charming lap cat he is today. After four months of hard work, he is our Little Bird. This necklace would be perfect to help us remember the family memories we are making with him every day.

Oh my gosh…I want to WIN the gift certificate so I can tell you which piece is my favorite by finally owning some of your gorgeous jewelry! For now I have my eyes set on the tree initial piece, so sweet and romantic…and your new “loved” piece; my 12 year old daughter Sarah is at that awkward stage, she’s so driven and passionate about her soccer, yet struggles with things right now, including believing that she is, indeed, greatly loved. I would love to order one of those for her right now, because she is indeed very, very loved.

I absolutely love the 2009 ornament, the fly-free necklace, and my hubby likes the wide leather cuff.

Hope I win! I absolutely love your blog and your jewelry! 🙂

I love my tags with my boys names on them – I love how they come and find their names when I tuck them in every night! I have to say that it still drives me nuts that I forgot a name on my mom’s family tree, regardless of the add-on!!

My favorite piece is the “Be Still” necklace. I think the design is beautiful and the meaning behind it is something i so easily forget, being still before God. You create amazing jewelry! 🙂

I have the open circle necklace on my Christmas list, I would love to have it with the names of my triplets inside. After a wonderful ‘snow day’ at home today, I am reminded how precious they are and how much I treasure them. I would love to wear their names close to my heart. I do also adore the ‘loved’ necklace! What wonderful work!

My favorite piece is my wedding ring-it symbolizes all of the things we’ve been through and how much more we have to look forward to.

My favorite is the “You are loved” necklace. When I’m feeling low and unloved, it reminds me that I need to get a grip because I really am loved.

My favorite is the leaf ornament. It reminds me of when the leaves change to a brilliant orange and every year I am reminded of all of God’s glory to make such colors!

This is hard! I was all set to say the tiny hearts or family crest would be a great way for me to memorialize my recent marriage (and baby!) but then i saw the fly free necklace – and I LOVE it. Feeling rather trapped in an… unfulfiling job, I would love the (beautiful) inspiration to break out of it!

I love so many of the items. Some of my favorites were the oval monogram, the cherish necklace, and the original necklace. I would love, love, love any item from this store.

My favorite is the “be still” necklace. I struggle with mental illness and meditate at night to help me sleep often, but am also trying to do so during the day to keep calm and focused at work, etc. This necklace reminds me of tranquility.

Apart from the necklace above I also LOVE open circle bracelet. so simple and elegant!!!!!!

you can delete my prior comment–sorry.

i love the sweet and simple birdie necklace because it reflects the natural world with beauty and simplicity. the natural world means a lot to me– i love animals, and i yearn to get out in the woods where there’s just quiet and fresh air and the sounds of nature.

The sweet and simple necklace is my favorite. It reminds me of my little girl, my little bird, as I think of her. Blackbird is one of the songs I sing to her, I even sang it to her while I was in labor.

My favorite changes all the time…for real.

Right now, my favorite is this loved necklace. It is for the simple reason that I need to recall that I am loved. Sometimes that simple truth is the one I let fly first.

I do love the “mama” necklace, because that is my proudest achievement, being a mama!
Happy Holidays to you and your beautiful family 🙂

I love the open circle bracelet that has “mom” all the way around it. I am a mother to a 16 month old with my second child on the way and I can’t think of a better piece of jewelry that describes my life right now!

I really like the “Hugs & Kisses” necklace. It is so simple and sweet. It reminds me of the old bedtime routine I had with my mother when I was little. We always did eskimos kisses, which are simple and sweet, just like the necklace!

I just love the ‘mama necklace’! The words on it are so inspiring and powerful. I’d love to wear it around my neck! …and the chain, OMG, how original is that? Just gorgeous and absolutely beautiful!

I just stumbled upon your blog (and store) looking for some Christmas giveaways…I just love your jewelry, your photos, your blog and your openness about your child’s disability. I also have two boys with special needs. I love them to death, but boy can they be trying. I will for sure continue to follow your blog…

Thanks for the chance to win your awesome jewelry giveaway! Happy Holidays!

Kari

This is a very hard choice….but I really like jumbo of charms. They are so cute!

Oh my…I love so many it’s hard to say just one. I love the family tree for obvious reasons, my family is everything. I also love the family crest, so girly and me but this new is really cute!!! Merry Christmas

The Family Tree necklace is wonderful!

My favourite piece of yours at the moment is the Family Tree necklace. My family is the most important thing in the world to me, especially at this time of year!

I have so many favorites! I can not narrow it down. I love the necklaces that have a family theme–family tree, any with multiple charms for kids’ names. I try not to looks too often because they I just covet. 🙂

I love the family tree necklace! I think that wearing them close to my heart is amazing 🙂

I love the rectangle keychain. Winning this giveaway would be awesome because I could buy all my bridesmaid’s gifts from you shop.

We have decide not to do any adult gifts (kids only!) in my family this year so I think I would surprise my mom and sister with the “mama” and “sister” necklaces. I would also really love the mama one for myself! : ) What a generous gift for someone to receive during the holiday season!

And I love your blog Lisa, never miss a day!

I love the tree necklace with the intials! It reminds me of sweet innocent love! I would love one of those with my initials and my boyfriend’s initials! 🙂

My favorite is the Sisters necklace. Me and my twin bought ourselves one and one for our little sister when she got married and was moving away. We all love it.

I love my Be Still necklace. It reminds me to be still and let God be in control of my moments and days. Growing up as the child of a biologist, I always have had a strong connection with nature and find peace & God in nature. I love that the necklace features a bird and branch (& also loved the original photograph that inspired it). All that said, I want my next piece of jewelry to be something that includes my family… I LOVE LOVE LOVE paper lanterns, so would love to make that my next necklace..but regardless, Lisa thanks for sharing beautiful jewelry,your beautiful photography and beautiful family in your blog. I truly enjoy reading it! Merry Christmas!

I LOVE all your pieces! When I try to decide on just one I never can:) Your Family Tree necklace and anything I can put my kids names on are my favs. Love your blog…thanks for sharing a slice of your life with us. Merry Christmas.

This new necklace is beautiful! It might just be my new favorite! Besides this new one, I love the “my heart” necklace. It says “I hold your heart in mine” and it reminds me of e.e. Cummings poem, I carry your heart, which is one of my all time favorite poems.

You do beautiful work, Lisa, and I love reading your blog. Keep it up and have a very Merry Christmas!

I love your things, Lisa! My favorite is the banner bracelet that says hope. If I win, I will get another that says pray! Thanks so much for being such a great artist and hope your family has a Merry Christmas.

I have the teeny tiny initials of my sweet famliy and i love it all your work is Great…

my favorite has been the teeny tiny initials of my kids, d and t! it is so cute w/ the pearl and not too overbearing .
wishing you all a happy holiday!

Wow, that’s hard…there are some I really, really love, but one of my all time faves would be the “family tree” necklace! Next year I’ll move together with my boyfriend and I can’t wait to start our own little family! Family is everything! 🙂
Thanks for your generosity! Oh and merry Christmas, of course! 😉
Sweet December greetings from across the globe *gg*

I love all things bird-y. My husband gave me the sweet simple bird necklace for Christmas 08. The fly free and be still birds are also so serene and beautiful.

Gorgeous work!

I love, love, love the family tree necklace! So simple, yet special. With a gift certificate, I would buy one for me (finally!) and one for my best friend. Thank you for such a generous giveaway. Merry Christmas!

I love so many of your pieces, Lisa. I purchased my first piece which has the “wishberry blossom” as my daughter refers to it (dandelion) with her name on it. I went in with a friend of mine and ordered my daughter the “Lil’ Lady” necklace for Xmas last year. It is adorable. She was a micro-preemie and I used to refer to her as my beautiful ladybug because she only weighed 1 pund 9 ounces. Instead of flowers after a friend from elementary school lost her 12 year old son, we ordered her a necklace with his name on it. She loved it and it is something she can always have to honor him. We are awaiting the arrival of a necklace for “Nana” for Xmas this year with the grandchildren’s initials on it. Your pieces are so precious and so thoughtful. They really touch the heart!!! : ) Lisa from VA

I love the “my heart” necklace. Such a sweet and simple quote….perfect for a best friend, mom, sister, or special child in your life. I love all the simple, yet eloquent creativity in your art.

okay, hard to choose! but right at this moment, the forever heart necklace.

I would love to have The Original Necklace with my kids’ names on it. I have two pieces of yours and they’re the only necklaces I wear. Just love them!!

I think my favorite, at the moment, is the “You Are Loved” necklace. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for seven years and just recently we decided to start going through infertility procedures. It’s been discouraging and depressing and sometimes it’s easy to forget that we’re trying to have a baby because we love each other. This necklace would be the perfect reminder for me to remember that he really does love me.

Lisa-I love all your jewelry but the piece that speaks to me the most now is the new paper lantern necklace. My daughters are adopted from China so the lanterns remind me of the beautiful country of their birth.

There are so many pretties to choose from. My favorites(right now) are the dew drop necklace and the leaf ornament…There is something so peaceful about the dew on blades of grass,flowers, tree etc in the morning. It is like a little surprise or something. I do not own it but, maybe one day I will. I have your aqua and pearl earrings though. So either would be a great to wear with the dew drop necklace! The leaf ornament is just so pretty and organic. I had planned on ordering some for gifts but, time slipped away from me and the budget is smaller this year! Happy Holidays! 🙂

hey friend! ok, i love anything with stars, the leather cuffs, the lantern necklace, and the petite family crest. so fun!

There are 3 of your necklaces that I like. I love your new one – so much wrapped up in one word, “loved”. I also like your friendship necklace. As I get older (well I’m only 42 🙂 I am more and more thankful for good friends. The family crest one probably has more significance now than ever. Many things are so changeable in life, but family is ALWAYS family.
Hope you have time to relax over the holidays. Have always been inspired reading your blog.
Jen

so hard to choose as your jewelery is so beautiful, but i would say the be still necklace is a favorite of mine. esp. now as there is much happening in my life at this time and need that reminder.

thank you for the chance 🙂

my fav is the open curcle necklace> I just ordered it with my husband and kids name on it. I cant wait to get this..This will be my daily reminder to take care of myself and make me be the best I can be for the ones that love me most!!

I love all your jewelry. I have told many of my friends about your site. We all love your work.

I love the chinese lanterns – so clever, different and “charming” of course!
Thanks for having the giveaway!!

girl….that is just so hard to pick a favorite…seriously have you seen your stuff??? 🙂 that is a toss up between the banner bracelet, and the lantern necklace. i am dreaming of one of those. Hoping my husband ordered…. thanks for you inspiration

I LOVE the family crest because of the symbolism of family- which is so important to me. It is hard to pick a favorite as all of them are SO amazing. I hope I win- it would be a great birthday present as my birthday is in just a few days!! Yay! xoxo

Where would I start? I love everything! You have such thoughful and inspirational jewelry….how could I choose just one? Each piece means some thing totally different to each person who sees it. There is surely a heart touching story for every piece you ship out!

My favorite is the little feet necklace. I love that it says “lucky mama”. My husband and I tried and tried to get pregnant and suffered a miscarriage. We were told that DH would never have children of his own, but that wasn’t good enough for us. We kept trying and now we have a beautiful 8 month old daughter. We know how lucky we are and count our blessings everyday! All of your jewelry just speaks to me but I really love that one.

My favorite is the sweet sister necklace I received from my sister for my birthday. We have grown closer over the years, despite being so far apart (our husbands are in the military) and have become each other’s best friend. I wear this necklace almost every day. Shhh…she’s getting one for her birthday next fall.

Your new necklace is beautiful. I had ordered the “lucky mom” necklace and changed it to “a blessed mom”. I feel blessed to have been able to be a mom. I wear this necklace all the time and have received so have received many compliments… keep creating, your work is beautiful!

my favorite is the family tree necklace. i think the design is beautiful and i’d love something that included the names of *all* of our little family. i also really love the open circle bracelet. i’d like to get it someday and have it engraved with the names of our two children. love your website, lisa! so sweet and inspiring!

I love my ‘mama’ necklace – reminds me of the best things about being a mom!

I love my little squares necklace. It has three squares, one for each of my three sons’ names. My youngest son died when he was 6 months old and his square has tiny little baby feet on it, because he will always be my baby. It’s perfect and I always get TONS of compliments on it! My best girlfriend just adopted a baby and if I win I will shower her and her new daughter with some new lovely jewelry (and maybe get myself something new too!)!

the “forever” necklace…same reason as the poster abigail heath..though not as young ..that was a beautiful post and i could not have said it any better

I love all of the items that you make.
My favorites are the friendship one that I would love to give to my friend Katy (and one for myself of course) 🙂 She is my neighbor and kindred spirit. That is why i love it!
I also love the tree stump one – reminds me of my husband and i dating in high school/college.
There are so many others!
Thank you for this chance to win the gift certificate!
Your jewelry rocks! 🙂

My favorite is the tiny tags necklace with both my boys names on it. I wear it all the time. I just recently paired it with the fresh water pearl earrings – the perfect set!

My favorite necklace that I own is the simple tag necklace with my son’s name inscribed on in. I would love to win the giftcard and purchase my mom, sister, and I matching “loved” necklaces. Our family has gone through many trying times this holiday season and I would love to be able to give them a piece that would mean so much to them. They truly are loved.

My absolute favorite is the lovebird necklace so simple and elegant 😉
Merry Christmas

one of my favorites is the sparkle necklace with the star. my sister-in-law wore it all the time and when she passed away last december it was given to me. it now hangs around my neck almost daily and is a sweet reminder of one of the greatest, strongest women i have ever had the privileged of knowing 🙂

I love the “you are loved” necklace. All of your jewelry is just beautiful.

I actually love your new “loved” necklace. That seems like the kind of gift that would make you feel special everytime you put it on.

For me, laundry line, hands down! it’s one those things that have a “special” meaning around here, it just makes me smile. you are very talented, and your pieces touch so many hearts. that’s what makes them so special. thanks for the giveaway.

It is so hard to choose a favorite… I do love the Paper Lanterns necklace.

Well, my favorite piece that I own is the fly free necklace. It’s just so darn cute! But my new favorite piece (that I don’t own) is either the jumble of charms necklace or the paper lantern necklace. I am expecting twins & I can’t wait to get one of those with their names on it!!!!!!!! 🙂

My favorite will always be the teeny tiny initials necklace. I chose this necklace instead of a mother’s ring, this way I can always have my children close to my heart. Very rarely am I wearing anything else and I get so many compliments on it. Love it!!! Thank you Lisa.

My favorite is the petite original. Every time I look at it it reminds me of my four children. How blessed I am to have such a wonderful family and life!!!

I absolutely love everything but right now I really love the Open Circle Bracelet. I love the shape and the fact that it can be personalized. I have spent time thinking about what I might put on this beautiful piece. So fun!!

I love the fly free….but the sweet simple birdie necklace is a close second!

I can’t just pick one!! I love so many! I’m really hoping for the jumble of charms necklace…I asked for it for Christmas. It is so much fun.

Thanks for the chance at an awesome giveaway!

While it is almost impossible to pick a favorite…mine might have to be the “be still” necklace. I struggle with anxiety and worry and trusting the Lord with His plan and not my own. This necklace is an excellent reminder of Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God” I often just need to take a deep breath and be reminded that He is in control despite the circumstances I am facing.

This time, because I love everything that you have created, I would have to say that I truly am in love with the leather cuff bracelet for men. This would look really nice on my fiancé and I think it has a message worth stating for everyone else to see. It’s masculine, but still has undertones of vulnerability to it, which send a message to anyone who would see it. I think that your work is definitely heartfelt and beautiful!

If you knew me, you would know that it is impossible for me to pick a favorite necklace!!!! That is a major hangup of mine. I cannot make a decision to save my soul. Your necklaces are all unique & lovely. I would be thrilled to have any of them!!!!

i own the family tree necklace and love it because it reminds me of what i am, a mommy. i just have my kids’ names on it. it reminds me what my life is all about. as far as other pieces i would like to add to my collection {i have an initial necklace as well} i could really add any piece and it would thrill me. the laundry line, the lanterns…just to name a few.

My favorite piece is the teeny tiny initials. I love my boys initials around my neck , especially now that they are teenagers. I believe that they would be embarrassed by one of the “typical Mommy necklaces”. I love my necklace and wear it often. Also, my older son is diabetic, so thank you for supporting his cause.

$250?! my, that is generous! i just love the large initial necklace and bracelet. i have the original necklace with my daughter’s name on it and wear it almost everyday! i also have the cream freshwater pearl earrings and just love them!!! crossing my fingers that i win! ; )

Wow, My favorite was the fly free necklace, but my husband started buying me ‘loved’ jewelry several years ago and always had to have it customized as everyone was into just ‘love’ ….how awesome…I would use the gift card to buy this new necklace and some earrings! I LOVE your earrings!

My favorite is the family crest. After my commitment to Christ, there is nothing that I am more devoted to than my husband and children.

I LOVE the sterling ring! i have a lot of necklaces right now but I would just so love a new ring!!!

I love all your work, but my favourite is the friendship necklace. I would love to give one to my sister (who lives over the ocean) & my two best friends, one I have known for 25 years, through love, loss, marriage, kids etc & the other who came across another ocean 15 years ago to live near us! And one for me to bind us all!

I love the friendship necklace. I would love to give it to my best friend, my mom. She is amazing and has been my best friend throughout my entire life. She is the one I told my first kiss about, the one I talked to when I was let down and the one who encouraged me to get through school. She has always believed in me and I think that’s exactly what a best friend should do. . .

I have to pick a favorite? Not sure I can, but I love the one I own, but I’m really liking the paper lantern necklace, too. Every woman in our family has one of your necklaces…they are SO special!!

My favorite is this one! I love the “you are loved necklace,” it reminds me that I am loved by family, friends, and ultimately the God of the universe!

I own the “wish” necklace, one of my favorite pieces. It reads “soli deo gloria,” which means “to God alone be the glory.” I chose that because I will be returning to Mercy Ships in January to serve as a nurse in West Africa, and I know on the hard days I will need that reminder of my purpose. I’ve worn it daily since it came in the mail several weeks ago and it’s been a comforting reminder that all of the goodbyes, packing, and moving are worth it.

You create such beautiful, meaningful pieces! My fiance ordered the large link charm bracelet for me for Christmas since I’d been hinting about it for a while! Another one of my favorites is the “you are loved” necklace, I would love to get it for my mom (we’re going through a difficult time and I know it would mean so much). The “friendship” necklace would be wonderful for my two closest friends for all of the love and support they’ve given me & my family past and present…

My favorite Lisa Leonard piece – the large link bracelet. I am giving to myself and my sister this Christmas. She’s had a terrible year in all ways. I want her to have a little reminder on her wrist that I am pulling for her and we are “linked” together. I want a reminder myself, so i can keep her in my prayers. think she will be speechless when she opens it – it’s so sentimental. I really gave this gift a lot of thought and looked all over the internet before finding Lisa’s designs. I knew they were perfect right away. For her birthday I think she’ll get the matching pearl earrings – they are so lovely.

all your stuff is just beautiful- I would be overjoyed to win some of it!! I love the mama necklace and the loved necklace- both would be a reminder of just how blessed I am. The Lord is good. Thanks!

I love all the pieces but especially the “key to my heart” necklace! Every time I see it – I smile and think of how much I would like to buy it! I’m saving up 🙂

Your mother’s day necklace is the one that gets me.. my husband and I are battling infertility and I’ve promised myself that when we do get pregnant, that necklace will be my gift to myself, the way that I start to really feel like a mom. Thanks for the chance.

My favorite is the family tree necklace. I gave it to a friend when she and her husband adopted their eighth child. My friend loves her kids with all her heart.

I love them ALL!!! Ordered 3 for Christmas gifts….Fly Free, Wishes, and Captured Heart necklaces. But my fav right now is the paper lanterns necklace, special because my daughter was born in China. Planning to buy it for myself after the holidays. Thanks for the opportunity to win a gift certificate!

I LOVE the “Hope” necklace b/c it doesn’t favor a certain color ribbon and there are many charities that are close to my heart that use the ribbon symbol…so this is something that brings so much hope to so many…the whole year through.

The other one is the “Be Still” one as I feel like I am being forced to be patient when my mind is ready to move on to the next step in my life…a husband and kid….however, the husband part seems to be a challenge…and I do want kids in my life…so I am having to be still to see what will happen.

The captured heart necklace is my favorite. I got it as an anniversary present this year. It’s a gentle reminder that my husband and sons are never far from me. No matter what kind of day I’m having I can look down and have an instant reminder that I am loved and people in this world believe in me. And really, is there any greater gift than that?

How is it possible to pick one favorite? I love them all and wish I could afford each and every one. Good luck to all!

What a great giveaway. I absolutely love all your jewelry. My favourite(canadian spelling) is the family tree that I purchased for my friend Tanya. She will love love it, especially because it has all her wonderful family names on it. I can’t wait to give all the other items that I ordered from you. Have a wonderful Christmas with your beautiful family!!!!

Wow Lisa! What a sweet giveaway…. I love your jewelry, every piece. But, any of your pieces with hearts touches me. My maiden name is Valentine, so… hearts do mean so much to me. The “forever” , or starry heart, or true love hearts, or itty bitty hearts necklaces….I would be elated to be chosen as a winner, and honored to wear your art! May you have a blessed Christmas…

Oh, the “fly free” necklace is my favorite hands down. I asked my hubby for it for Christmas! The first time I saw it on your website it brought tears to my eyes. It’s that sweet feeling you get when you know that someone else “gets it.” Someone else has been caged, and someone else flew free when Jesus opened the door. 🙂 Beautiful piece of art.

My favorite is the open circle necklace. I have my 3 kids names on it. It is a great reminder of them throughout my day. I also love the necklace that is a rounded square shape with a cross on it. I had Faith, Hope, Love set on it for my sister as a wedding shower present. I still with I had one of my own. Hopefully my husband will pick up on my wish and buy it for me some day. Thanks for the shot at a great giveaway!

I adore the “be still” necklace. What a lovely reminder to slow down, be still and listen to our Lord. I also really like your “new you are loved” necklace ~ what a beautiful gift this would make!

my favourite piece is definately the open circle necklace…..I love its simple beauty, but more than anything else, I love that I can personalize it with my daughter’s unique name. I love the simplicity and organic nature of all of your pieces…you are a true artist Lisa!

My fave pieces are the Jumble of Charms and Little Feet necklaces. I love jumble of charms b/c my kids are so opposite from each other and the mix of charms just fits our quirky little family. Little Feet took my breath away the moment I first saw it. My first son was stillborn 16 years ago. I have a tattoo of his sweet, Little Feet on my ankle. Every time I see that necklace I think of my sweet Christian.

I just ordered the Fly Free necklace for my sister, she has been very depressed and down on herself and I wanted her to be reminded daily that there is freedom in Christ Jesus. Love all of your jewelry, very special.

What a beautiful piece! I adore it! I think one of the necklaces I love the most is the family tree. There’s something so sweet and magical about the names carved together… makes it perfect!

Thanks!
lise

Lisa–My favorite piece is the necklace that you made in honor of David!! I still have yet to order one! I really want one because of my little Vinny! Such a common bond between us moms with kiddos with CdLS! Hugs Staci and Vinny 🙂

I love your jewelry. My favorite is the jumble of charms necklaces, I love how it allows for the uniqueness of each member to shine!

I really like your jewelry in general… but I have to admit I have never bought any because at this time we cannot afford it. The piece that really stood out to me though was your new loved necklace because my sister has that tattooed on her foot to remind her that God always loves her even when she doesn’t feel like anyone else does. She hasn’t said so but sometimes I wonder if she has a hard time being the only one of four siblings who is still single and now she is 30. I keep praying that God will bring the right man into her life but it must be hard… so anyways that’s my reason 🙂

I have one of your necklaces and I love it. I haven’t seen it for some time so I don’t think you sell it anymore. It has a round silver pendant with a matte gold flower on it (the petals are raised up) it has my children’s names on it. I love it and get so many compliments on it. I would love to have another necklace of yours and think the petite family crest and the family tree necklaces are beautiful. I love pieces that are personal to me. It also makes me happy to wear the necklace with my kids names because I feel like they are close to my heart!

I Love Love Love all your pieces, they are so beautiful and unique, I have so many favourites but I really do love the MAMA design because the words are so thoughtful and true for the important and sometimes difficult role of being a Mama and also the Sweetheart Tree necklace because it is so adorable and creative!!

I love the captured heart necklace. Such a wonderful idea to display the name/names of those special someones that capture your heart for all the world to see.

I love my tiny tag necklace with my sons names on each one. I wear this necklace all the time and get many compliments on it.

oh my, don’t I wish I could win this! I don’t think I can choose a favorite, but I do love this one: http://www.lisaleonardonline.com/custom-necklaces/laundry-line-necklace.html

Ooh, and I really like the new you are loved design… I may have to bookmark it in my husband’s list as a not so subtle hint! 😉

How do I pick a favorite?

I absolutely LOVE my Family Tree necklace. I have gotten at least one compliment on it every time I have worn it and have had a few friends order one after having seen mine.

I have to admit, Lisa, I didn’t want to give “my secret” away… that being your blog and jewelry! But how could I not share?

I also have the tiny squares necklace as well as a mixed charm necklace. I can’t get enough!

Next on my list? Cherish and/or dewdrops.

I love the simple style and powerful messages of family and love that your jewelry evokes.

Ahh…

My favorite is the mama neclace. I’m asking for this for Christmas. I teach first grade but long to be home each day with my daughter. This necklace is a reminder that I can do both, I’m trying so hard to find a balence between work and motherhood.

I would love to wear your noew “loved” necklace.

Im not sure how to say this without sounding too sappy. I grew up wihtout family and wasnt shown much love. The woman who did “raise” me told me daily that I wasnt “her people” and that she was doing me a huge favor. (irony being that we blood related) She went out of her way to make me feel unloved. Then I went to my live with my dad who went back and forth between neglectful and abusive.

Only God could make something beautiful from my life and He has. I now have a wonderful loving husabnd and five beautiful children. I am very loved.

I love the new necklace “you are loved”….I would give it to my sister. She is single but I want her to know that there are so many people that love her and she will eventually find “the one”. I have the tiny squares necklace and it means so much to me because it has the names of my boys on it and they are always close to my heart when I wear it……:)

what a wonerdful give away. thank you for bringing a little hope to my day. like many people this year, i don’t think the finances include a christmas present for mom. but if i won this, i would most definately order the jumble of charms necklace for myself. it is so beutiful. i love how like each child, each charm is different. the family tree necklace is perfect for my mom. and the loved necklace would be perfect for someone special that needs to be reminded she is very much loved by many people.

the “i hold your heart in mine” necklace….i gave this to a friend who was in the process of losing her mother to brain cancer and she *loved* it (even though it made us cry more–it was a good cry!).

my favorite is the family tree necklace with my name, my partner’s name and our twin boys. i wear it everyday and always get so many compliments. i received it last year for christmas. i am also looking forward to the day when i can order a new one with another child’s name on it, if we are so blessed! merry christmas lisa!!!

I ordered the “Redeemed” necklace. I absolutely love it. I have received compliments on it every day I wear it. It is a good reminder that my Kinsman Redeemer has Redeemed me. He has called me by name and I am His!!!!!!!!!!

i love the open heart bracelet because the message is never ending and the family crest necklace since i love anything with an initial on it.! thanks for the chance to own some of your beautiful pieces!!

wow I have to choose I can’t. I love them all. I love any of the heart ones. My kids were born in my heart not under it!!!

well, its hard to pick a favorite, but my newest one would have to be the friends necklace. I just think it is the sweetest gift for someone who really matters to you.

it’s hard to choose one that I like best but I think I would have to pick the “Be Still” necklace. I am a mother of three teen boys and a full time occupational therapist in a public school system plus the jewelry hobby. So… I tend to get too busy and stressed and need to remind myself often to slow down and focus on what is important. I need constant reminders. Nancy

I love the oval monogram necklace! Very classy!

My favorite piece is the the “Wish” necklace. My husband got me one with “To my wife, the one that I love” written in French. It’s absolutely my most favorite thing that I own! I wear it everyday and always get compliments on it! (And everyone is very impressed that my hubby thought of it!) 🙂

Thank you for your beautiful work!

My husband and I have always said we go anywhere together, even “to the moon” that will be the next thing I order, a bracelet with that inscribed. I can’t wait to see my Christmas present, a captured heart. It was sent directly to my in-laws, I am dying to see it! I also want to get something sweet and special for my best friend. She is a single mom with two little boys, she works so hard and is a constant encouragement to ME! Thank you for all of your beautiful work~

Wow….I’m not sure I can pick one fave piece!! I think my NEW fave is this”you are loved” necklace! I LOVE the simplicity of it, as well as the added touch of the pearl. Wearing it would mean so much and remind a person that someone is thinking about them and caring for them.
As I wait to welcome our second child (due in 2 short weeks), I am already trying to decide which custom-necklace I would like to get with their names on it.

my favy fav is the open circle necklace. so simple and beautiful. i love the custom necklaces & that you can put something meaningful on them to give to a special someone.

I love my “open circles” necklace with my bueaties’ names on it. I wear it almost every day to keep “Isabelle” and “Emily” near my heart. My youngest has learned to spell her name and her sister’s name from it. Currently I”m partial to the friends pendant with the two sweet little flowers. And this one? Takes my breath away. Seriously! You make suce beautiful things, Lisa!

My favorite is the Lovebird necklace–it is the first piece of your jewelry that my husband bought for me, and I thought it was so thoughtful of him. I also love it because my 3 year old son calls me says, “Mommy is my lovebird” when he sees me wearing it, and when we see the lovebirds at the zoo he ALWAYS talks about my necklace, even if I am not wearing it.

I think I like the starry hearts necklace for no particular reason other than it is very pretty. Thanks for the opportunity to win! Quiltluver-Karen

Lisa,

All of your work is so unique and special. Everytime I look at your pieces I think of many people in my life that they would just be perfect for – you are a talented artist. I recently purchased a Christmas ornament for our family and it is the first item since our son was born that has all of our names written on it – so special to see my little family’s name in print! Thank you.

I think my favorite is the tiny tag necklace with both my sweet boys names on it! I also have the daisy cuff with thier names as well. I just love all of your pieces have recommended them to all my friends and family…and my sister is having her first baby and it’s a girl so I ordered her a necklace as well for when she has her! Thank you I love your blog!

My favourite peace is the “Cherish” necklace because it reminds me to focus on and find pleasure in the small things. I think that a lot of people (myself included) forget to do that and we would all be a lot happier if we remembered. A hot drink on a cold day, a kind word said in passing, a full moon in a cloudless sky… all small things that can brighten a day.
When I found your blog, I loved the title!
Thanks for the chance to win!

Cherish necklace! Forever necklace! Or the classic Open Circle…so hard to decide my favorite!!!!!
-Christy

I love everything. Every single thing.

sweet lisa….. i adore your pieces and love peeking into your blog for inspiration! i’ve just placed my first order {two gifts…..a beautiful custom ornament + a precious baby spoon…& an ornament for ourselves}…I can hardly wait until they arrive & of course, to come back for more! each of your pieces are so special and my wish list is l o n g . *your designs simply bring such joy + delight!*

i am dreaming about wearing the open circle necklace {with my children’s names} and the petite crest necklace close to my heart….a reminder of the greatest blessing of all….family.

happy holidays to you and yours…..

I love the Mama necklace. I recently became a Mama 8.5 months ago after 5 years of infertility and various tests and procedures. Although I have not found any piece in your store that is not beautiful and wonderful. My birthday is in Jan and I have already sent my hubby to your site and showed him gift ideas.

This is a wonderful giveaway…how thoughtful and nice. I love the be still necklace…it reitorates all that my life is right now “CRAZY” and that I just need to sit and be still for a minute and take a minute for myself. I love the “you are loved necklace” also…I would love it if my husband saw it.

My favorite piece is the “fly free” necklace. My previous co-workers purchased this for me as a going away gift. It symbolized me flying away… to my new (dream) job, after working with these people for almost 8 years! It really means so much. I get so many compliments on it. I pair it with my Lisa Leonard fresh pearl earrings! xo

I just stumbled on this site, and immeadiately sent an email to my husband that said, “Just a hint…I would very much like this http://www.lisaleonardonline.com/custom-necklaces/family-tree-necklace.html for any of the upcoming gift-giving holidays.

I hope he listens!

My favorite is the jumble of charms necklace, which I own. My children gave it to me for mother’s day last year and I loved it. I also gifted one of your necklaces to my daughter last Christmas. Your work is lovely.

I did my Christmas shopping when you had the buy $100 worth, get the “Fly Free” necklace for FREE! I am so in love with it! Everyone asks about it here in Memphis, and I send them to you! If I won the gift certificate, I would get the circle with “sola fide, sola gratia, sola scriptura.”

My fav one is “I hold your heart in mine” – I don’t have one of my own, but I’m bought one today to give to my daughter because her boyfriend just told her he has an incurable disease and that he’s probably got 10 years of independent living then he’ll be in a nursing home. He’s only 27! He told her to save her from any heartbreak. He told her he was breaking up with her. His father died of the same disease and he doesn’t want her to go through what his mom did. Also the prospect of fathering healthy children are slim unless an extraction of healthy sperms not displaying the diseased gene are removed…Probably gave too much information here, but the necklace I’m buying will have her boyfriend’s name on the back…I know it will have special meaning for many years to come. I’ve also given this same necklace to a friend who lost her son in a tragic boating accident 4 years ago. This boy would be the same age as my son (18)..She loves her necklace and thinks of him whenever she wears it.

my favorite piece is the necklace my hubby surprised me with for mother’s day. i had found your website only a few weeks beforehand and fell in love instantly! he purchased two hearts with our kiddo’s names on them 🙂

I like the fly free necklace a lot, it’s so special… And the paper lantern necklace… so sweet!
It is really difficult to choose a favorite necklace – all of your work is really beautiful!

my fav is the you are loved and the my heart necklaces… my sister is going thru a very hard time with her 5 girls being taken away from her and missing holidays are hard for her but missing the girls birthdays are even harder… i try to remind her everyday that she is loved.

I love the piece my sister gave me. It is the “sister” one but I got it to say, “him whom my soul loves” and the inner ciricle says my husbands name “john”. I love it and get tons of compliments on it. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE this certificate so I could get my three sisters and I a Loved necklace or something to share. There are 4 of us really close in age and I’ve been wanting to do this for some time but just don’t have the money to do it. So maybe, just maybe, I’ll win and I could do it 🙂 Here’s hopin’ and prayin’!

The Hope Necklace, my mother was just diagnosed with early stage breast cancer..and I have HOPE she will be a breast cancer survivor.

i love so many of your pieces. i love the family tree and the tiny hearts — i’ve given both as gifts in the past. i would love a petite crest for myself and the wish necklace, the fly bird and several others…

My favorite has always been the cuff bracelette with the family names on it and the little pearl…I have collected name bracelettes from the 1920’s and earlier…they were sterling silver and families added a link with an engraved name for each member of the family. And I loved the history of them and daydreaming about who they could have been so the idea of having one of my own in a more modern style has always thrilled me!! One of these days I will own one!!!

It’s so SO hard to pick just one thing…. I love the monogram necklace… And the ity bitty hearts necklace and I would add 3 A’s and an R on it… for my little girls and husband… And then there is the ‘you are loved’ necklace… Too hard to choose…..

I love your blog and wish I could take pictures like you!! 🙂

It’s way too hard to choose…..I’ve tried a lot, whether for gifts to other people….or myself as I can’t resist when I’m ordering to treat myself !!! However, my two tone daisy (limited edition 🙁 and open circle have to be my favourites…….I”m still waiting for you to start selling the sweet daisy ring !!!! Thank you for making gift choosing easy…

Lisa, you are so very generous. I ordered a custom design for a friend going through a rough spot and it comforted her…she never takes it off. You make lovely stuff.

I think my favorite piece is the “Be Still” necklace. Reminds me of “…be still and know that I am God.” I need that reminder every day.

Lisa, I love your designs & your blog. My sister attended your church in SLO while she attended Cal Poly and that is how I first heard of your wonderful work! I’ve admired the family crest necklace for a while, but now that the Lord has blessed us with a little one on the way, I think the tiny initials necklace would be perfect to start off our family tree 🙂 Thanks for the great giveaway!

i would have a hard time choosing between the fly free necklace and the sweet and simply birdie necklace – they are both so gorgeous! i have a dire lack of pretty necklaces, and any of your beautiful creations would fit the bill wonderfully.

wishing you and your lovely family happy holidays…

xoxo

I love the simplicity and symbolism of the Be Still necklace. It reminds me that the only way to growth & freedom is through time with our Father.

My favorite is the laundry line necklace! It was love at first sight for me!!
…I really like the loved necklace! So simple yet so beautiful!
Lisa, you inspire me everyday! Love your blog! xo

My all-time new favorite (is that an oxymoron?) is the beautiful ‘cherish’ necklace with the heart and the teeny diamond. I would choose the word love just as you did – because i truly believe that everything can be accomplished if it is done with love. I work with children in church, and even those that have problems and cause us problems are much easier to deal with when they are treated with love. That’s what it’s all about for me.

And this is a lovely necklace!

Beautiful new necklace! I love all of your pieces so much that I would buy one of each for everyone I know if I could!!

I LOVE my Oval Monogram Necklace….I am a walking advertisement for Lisa Leonard Designs when I wear it! People are constantly asking where I got it. My response “It’s a Lisa Leonard!” (of course!)
I would be happy to advertise with a few more potential favorites if I am the gift certificate winner. I lost one of my freshwater pear earrings (tragic!) So, I would love to replace those, too! Pick me please!

I really love them all. My favorite is either the “loved” necklace or the open circle with my two daughters names engraved. My husband gave me the open circle as a gift when I gave birth to our second daughter 9 months ago. Very meaningful to me. 🙂

I have the family tree necklace with my three boys on it-priceless-I love it! I kind of like the new loved necklace too!

My favourite is the fly free necklace as I have a small disability and since I have, with God’s help, changed my attitute to it, I have been able to fly free.

I have so many favorites! But, the piece I would love to have the most is the itty bitty hearts necklace w/my husband’s and newborn son’s initials. You are so talented and I WILL have one of your pieces one day:) Guess I better fwd your site to my husband. LOL

Wow, I love so many of them. The new “loved” necklace is amazing, and I love the tiny tags with the names on them. Lisa you are such a talent!

The loved necklace and the open circle bracelet, are my choices. I’d give them to my 40’ish daughters, They’re so cool.

I love the single tag key chain, especially with the word “believe” on it. So inspiring and something I could easily give to my husband that he would see everyday. Thanks!

I love one that my sister got a couple years ago when her son was born…two silver boxes with his name and his sisters names with a fresh-water pearl. I actually love pretty much everything!!

I love your dewdrop necklace and many others…..it is very hard to pick a favorite! Thanks for sharing your life with us.

I just discovered your site and love it! My favorite is the “loved” necklace.

teeny tiny initials – we added ellie’s initials to our family this year. love it!

I have three of your necklaces. My favorite is the simple birdie necklace – my husband gave it to me for Christmas last year. We are hoping to adopt a baby girl soon. He said that the birdie reminded him of an Asian drawing, and he said that he wanted me to have a reminder that someday I will be a mommy with a little girl of my own. I cried and cried…and I wear it nearly every day.

If I won the gift certificate I would get my two best girlfriends the paper lantern necklaces. All of our precious children were born and adopted from China. We took this amazing journey together. Just this week I received my own paper lantern necklace as a Christmas present from my hubby.. It is so lovely!! A tiny little treasure that means so much.

I adore the itty bitty hearts necklace and also the cherished necklace. Your designs are just gorgeous and although the heart necklace is on my wishlist, I don’t think Santa can afford it this year. With a very special little girl who has stolen our heart, I am thinking all the money will be spent on her. I honestly don’t mind though.
Thank you so much for the chance to win.

I really love the family tree necklace. I have been blessed with three beautiful munchkins after seven long years of infertility treatments! I’d love to have this necklace with all of us on it. Thanks for the chance to win!

My favorite piece is the open circle necklace. There’s just something simple yet meaningful behind the circle. I think it would look super sweet with a pearl as well! 🙂

I love all of your stuff but especially the mama necklace and the family tree necklace. I have three beautiful girls and also another daughter who was stillborn five years ago. I would love to have something that recognizes all of my children. Thank you for this opportunity and Happy Holidays!

My favorite piece is the the sweet sister necklace. It only has three words but it says a lot of what a sister is or should be, known, understood and loved. Three words (other than I love you) that mean so much to a person. I purchased one to give to my future sister in law as a bridesmaid gift and I know she will love it. I love your pieces, you are so creative! I can’t wait to see what you come up with in the new year!

My favorite piece is the you are loved necklace. There are days when I don’t feel very loveable. This necklace would be a good reminder that God always loves me so, therefore, I am loved.

My favorite is the tiny squares- I have my 2 son’s names and birthdate on them. That way they are always close to my <3.
There are a few more pieces I’d love… so many to choose from!

My favorite is the one that you made in honor of David the “find joy in the unexpected” I own it. I too have a son with special needs and love to wear it and think of him. I would love love love to own more, since it is the only piece I own.

I just ordered the bronze freshwater pearl earrings for my mother and the baby’s first spoon for my god-daughter, which I am really excited to give as gifts this year. I think for myself the be still necklace must be my favourite and if I win this (and maybe even if I don’t win) I will buy it. I think it would be a perfect often much needed reminder to take a moment to just be still and enjoy, think, relax, be patient. If I were to receive a gift I would really love the you are loved necklace 🙂

My favorite is the Fly Free necklace. So pretty!

The new necklace is lovely! 🙂 My favourite is the one where the charms are round and you can have the names on your kids on them. I’m thinking of giving those to my sister in law for her birthday next year!

My favorite necklace is “fly free”. I had pet birds for many years and they brought such sweet song into my days. My last bird passed away a few years ago and I’m waiting until I finish painting some rooms in my home before finding a new bird friend (paint fumes are very harmful for their respiratory systems). One of my birds used to sit on the edge of his cage and wait until I got home from work then fly to the front door to greet me, sitting on my shoulder as I walked him back to his cage. Your beautiful necklace brings that memory back to me.

My first and favorite necklace that I had was the Open Circle Necklace. I had it made with “BELIEVE IN MIRACLES”. I bought this about 2 years ago when my son who was 3 at the time was diagnosed with neuroblastoma cancer. I wore it faithfully everyday until he died this past June. It took some time, but I gave it to a friend of our son’s who he always said he was going to marry someday. I can’t tell you how much this necklace meant to me. I now have the dewdrops necklace stamped with my son that we lost, my daughter and my newborn son’s name. Your new necklaced “You are loved” is wonderful. I would love to have something like that for Christmas, but I would rather have my husband think of that on his own. I’ll have to send him a link to your blog.

Even though we live in Chile as missionaries, thanks to the internet I was able to meet a friend and encourager throughout our nearly two years in the Haitian adoption process who is also a fellow adoptive mom sharing the journey. Some time ago, her husband purchased your family tree necklace and had it engraved with the names of ALL their children – even those they were waiting for by faith. I had the chance to see it when Jamie and I met in person for the first time on my last trip to Haiti and it is beautiful! Since then it has been my desire to have a similar necklace to celebrate my sons’ homecoming. Tomorrow the older of our two babies turns two years old (he was four months old when we accepted his referral.) I had dreamed of having them home before yet another milestone passed but it was not to be. However, if God wills we may have them home for Christmas and I would love to have that wonderful reason to celebrate!

My husband got me your Original Necklace a couple of years ago with my kids’ names on it…I still LOVE it! I’ve had my eye on your family tree necklace for a long time…maybe someday I’ll be able to get that one 😉 !

My first and only one was the captured heart necklace with the names of our family members on it. I love it and sometimes it belongs to me like my wedding ring. My next favorite one would be the mama necklace or the fly free necklace, because it is not easy to find a balance in beeing a good mum and finding time for yourself. I love your creative work and the warm words in your blog.

I gave my hubby a wish list for the “True Love” necklace this year. (I even signed him up to receive your emails too) I really hope he ordered it for me for Christmas! We have been through so much together in our 13 years of marriage. We have three children and one has some very serious health issues. Constant travel to the children’s hospital out of town and the stress of the situation could have torn us apart but we let it bring us closer together instead. I feel like my husband and I are an example of the true “team work” it takes to raise our special family. Some days are tough and I would cherish the reminder around my neck of our love!

I LOVE the family tree necklace and would love to have one after our 3rd child is born in less than 6 weeks! And then I’d probably buy the friendship necklace (I think that’s what it’s called) for 2 of my best friends! I would have way too much fun with a gift certificate 🙂

I adore your new LOVED necklace. Makes us remember that no matter how difficult life gets, we are all loved!

My favorite (and first) piece is about to become a part of my home, arrival pending. Today is an exciting day, making my first Lisa Leonard purchase. I am getting the large link bracelet and cuff bracelet, to celebrate Aubrey choosing me to be his mom. His initials are A-H-A, intentionally selected to be that way in the arrangement of our last names, to signify the teacher who arrived when he came into our lives, our “aha” moment. Everything I knew prior to meeting him seemed so irrelevant, and life suddenly became richer, more significant. I cannot wait for the arrival of my Aubrey bracelet, as I call it, to tell his story, the story of my greatest teacher, and that of why I chose Lisa to be the one to create it. A joyful Christmas awaits…

I love that circle necklace and bracelet . so beautiful and simple at the same time 🙂

its a toss up between the family tree and the orig. petite circles. i love them both! i send the orig. circles one to friends when they have babies… and got the family tree for my mother in law.
they are both very classic pieces…hmm… hard to make a decision on that. i guess i’ll say family tree because I LOVE MY FAMILY SO MUCH!
merry christmas, lisa and family.

I actually purchased the redeemed necklace that you designed for the (in)courage store and I have to say that it is probably my most favorite piece of jewelry! I’m usually not one to wear a lot of jewelry but I always grab this necklace before I leave the house! Love it! It is a constant reminder to me of Isaiah 43 and that I was called out by name by God.

My favorite piece is a heart shaped charm necklace that I had inscribed with my friend Betty’s name on it. She died of cancer in July 2009 and I wanted something to remind me of her. Thank you so much for such inspiring jewelry!!!!

I love the family tree necklace. I am thinking that would be wonderful for my mother. She has Alzheimers and names are hard, but she could have her family close to her heart.

All of your work is so personal and meaningful! Great gift ideas!

I have recently come to know of your jewelry and your blog. So there are several pieces that I would just love to have, but the one that means most to me and I have been wishing that I could get is your Friendship Necklace. I have a dear, dear friend of mine who absoluteley loves your jewelry and has for a very long time and she just recently moved several miles away from me. I miss her so much and being miles apart it is so hard to stay in touch, so when we do get a chance to chat we cherish those moments. I don’t think that she understands how much she has blessed my life, I would love to have the opprotunity to share this gift with her. Thank you so much!

I am totally taken with your new paper lantern necklace. It is on my list of things I want to buy sometime in the very near future. It reminds me of Asia and so many dear friends there!

I love the ” loved” necklace. How sweet! You are so talented!

My favorite piece is the “Be Still” necklace. I need to be reminded daily to “be still and know that He is God.” I’m a nursing student, and it’s hard to find time to just rest in Him because I have so many other things I “need” to do, but just like this little bird, among other things he could be doing (building a nest, finding some food, flying around), he chose to just rest. and take in the beauty of God’s creation.

How could I pick just one? I started a wish list and then gave up when I realized that I had every necklace you made on it. I have bought one for everyone I know. I love the mama necklace that I bought for my surrogate grandchildren’s mom. But, then I also love the hugs and kisses and the bird necklace I’m surprising my daughters with for Christmas. Now this new one…anyone want to send someone buying gifts for me a hint?

Oh this is a tough one! I think my favorite is a tie between the teenie tiny initials necklace or the 2009 ornament. Thank you for being so generous!

I absolutely adore the “mama necklace” you make. I’m not a mother myself, but my Mom means the world to me — she is both mine and my sister’s best friend in the whole world! She always puts us first, even now and we are both in our late 20s. 🙂 My husband and I are talking about having kids in the next couple years, and every time I see this necklace on your site it always makes me hope I can be as good of mom as my Mom is!

personally, there are so many pieces that i would feel honored to wear, your work is just beautiful + meaningful and i have been drooling over it for a long time. but, if i won, i would probably not buy anything for myself and instead gift pieces to those i love. i would give my baby sister the fly free necklace because she will be graduating from college this spring + is fearful when presented with change. it would serve as a reminder to her that opening her wings + pursuing her dreams will empower her. i would also get my husband the leather cuff with the word believe because he has difficulty believing in himself. it would serve as a reminder to him to dig deep + find what he needs to believe in himself and make his own dreams come true. and i would get my daughter the open circle bracelet engraved with dance, laugh, live, love on one side and dare to dream on the other. just to remind her to enjoy her life and reach for the stars.

OH, Lisa! I have been stalking the internet for giveaways with your jewelry. Ever since I first saw your work featured on Tara Whitney’s blog, I’ve been in love. My current favourite (and it changes all the time) is your laundry line necklace. My first baby is going to be one in January and I would love to start a family necklace of some sort soon. I love how modern and yet traditional your jewelry is and I would love to be able to give a friendship necklace to my friend – just to name a few. Thanks for the chance to win this generous giveaway!!!!

Few months ago I ordered a Friend necklace (with 2 flowers) for my best friend. When it arrived I really loved how pretty and elegant it is. Now I want one for myself to remind me about my dear friend that lives thousands of miles away.

My absolute favorite necklace- by far- is the Family Tree. After praying for 15 months for a baby, we welcomed him on Feb 5, 09. I have this necklace with all of our names: Nathan, Megan, & Reddington. Everytime I wear it I get compliments! Also, his nursery is decorated with trees, owls, & birds so this necklace is just PERFECT! You are wonderful, Lisa. Love the Blog!

My favourite is the Captured Heart Necklace. I got one as a “push present” from my sweet husband with out baby girl’s name engraved. I wear it nearly every day. Love, love, love it. She’s close to my heart all day long even when I have to be away from her. Thanks, Lisa!

I love all your bird necklaces. Birds always signify hope to me.

I love all of your items…they are very dear. My favorite pieces are the family tree and the chinese lanterns…the family tree…obviously because I love my family….the lanterns because the Word says that we are to be the “light of the world” …which is my prayer for each of my kids and husband. If I win I want to buy the lanterns as reminders for my children and husband that I pray this for them daily.

my favorite piece is the family tree. and the reason is because I have a friend who is a missionary in chile. she has been in the process of adopting for almost 2 yrs now. she wants this necklace so badly but it’s just out of her budget. mine as well as we are trying to raise money to be missionaries as well in panama. anyways my point is if i were to win I would buy her that necklace because she is one of my very best friends and I would love to be able to give her the necklace as her adoption from Haiti is getting very close to being over! So if I win I will buy her the necklace and make her day! Love you Stephanie!!! (even though i know you will never see this comment!) erin

I love the “Be still” necklace. I need that reminder daily. To “be still” before my Savior…to “be still” and relax when things get hectic at home with my 2 young sons…to simply “be still” and savor the blessings that come in small moments each day. It’s a lesson I am disciplining myself to learn — not easy for a Type-A girl. 🙂 Thank you for your inspiring works of art, Lisa!

I really love the petite family crest necklace, the family tree necklace and the sweet & simple birdie necklace. I really want to buy one but can’t decide which I would love the most! I have a custom necklace that I got from my husband for Christmas last year that says “the journey is painful but there is much joy”. All of your jewelry has such wonderful meaning to it. That’s why I love what you do.

So hard to choose just one but ever since I came across your site, I have been coveting the family tree necklace. The engraving is just so delicate and I love the idea of “carrying” around my family in such a unique way.

I really love the new lantern necklace and the birdcage one is a favorite of mine as weIl. I received “Wish” & “Family Tree” for my birthday and they are even more beautiful in person. There are some very special women in my life who I’d love to bless with one of your pieces. Thanks for the chance at an awesome giveaway, Miss Lisa!

what an amazing and generous giveaway!
i have a family tree necklace that i am completely in love with, but next to that my favorite would have to be the be still necklace.
i also love your baby spoons – they make the perfect gifts!

My favorite? This one for sure – I love the style, and the message. How could you not feel wonderful wearing “Loved” all day? 🙂

I love the simple ones with kids names. I bought one with my daughter’s name to celebrate her adoption day. It is so very special to me! I plan to pass it along to her when she’s 12 or so. 🙂

i think this ” you are loved ” piece is my new fave. i would love to give it to my daughter who turns 20 in 6 days. she is very loved and it would be nice for her to wear it close to her as a reminder 🙂

I love so much of your jewelry. It is all so meaningful and beautiful! I especially like the initials necklaces and would love to get one with my kids initials one day!

I’d love to win this giveaway! My favorite piece is the “you are loved necklace.” This has been a tough year for most people, and it reminds me that sometimes you have to stop worrying about things that you can not control and just remember that you are loved.

My very favorite is the “mama” necklace. I just birthed our second babe – a girl – on November 20th. We’re joking that our Christmas present came a little early. 🙂 Being a mama is the most wonderful job ever, and I’m trying to celebrate it every day, even when it’s chaotic.

I love my simple tag necklace that says “bloom.” It is such a simple and strong statement. It reminds me to be content where I am and to grow where I am planted. Plus, I really like that it has a period after the word, so definitive!

I also like the True love hearts necklace and the sweet and simple birdie necklace.

I love this necklace… I may ask my husband for it because I’m in need of knowing that I’m loved right now…

I also like the Be Still necklace because I need a reminder to be still and listen and know that He is God…

I’m also obsessed with your keychain, and the baby spoon–we don’t have any children yet, but my friends do, and I adore spoiling them…

my favorite is the large initial bracelet. i feel like i have lost a bit of myself this year, being laid-off and going through a divorce. the bracelet symbolizes, i’m here, in a bold fashion. love the whole idea.

happy holidays!

It is really difficult to choose a favorite necklace – all of your work is so inspiring. I would have to say the sister one would be a beautiful gift to give to my only sister and my lifeline!

okay my very favorite is the custom family tree necklace(from you of course) that my husband gave me for Valentine’s day. It is probably way more valuable to me than any expensive diamond piece I own!

Ooooh…too many to chose from! I love the forver necklace and the sweetheart tree! They are so precious and dainty!

The tree piece has been on my wish list since the debut. I have a special fondness for trees and to have my husband’s and my initials carved in it would be so special. I wish you and your family a wonderful holiday and luck getting thru the holiday rush!

I purchased the sweet sister necklace for my baby sister as a Christmas gift. She has done so much for me and supported me in ways I’ll never be able to repay. I always tell her that I appreciate her more than she knows.
So, on the outer circle of this necklace, I had it engraved with “more than you know”. I loved it and so does she. I could not wait until Christmas to give it to her!

I really have a lot of favs, but on my Christmas List was the small family crest. I really like the loved one too.

I don’t think I can pick a favorite 🙂 I love the Christmas ornament from this year, and the ring with my kid’s names on it. I cherish all my jewelry from you!

My favorite is the “mama” necklace. It was part of my push present this year with the birth of our 2nd. I wasn’t supposed to be able to have children and never imagined myself as a “mostly” stay at home Mom (I work from home) so it’s a constant reminder that God has his own plans for us and of course of my munchkins. My second favorite is the cuff bracelet that I sent with courage on it to our favorite cousin who battled breast cancer this year. She loves it and wears it all the time. What she may not know is how much courage she gives us.

This is my absolute favorite: http://www.lisaleonardonline.com/custom-necklaces/teenie-tiny-initials-necklace.html

If I won the giftcard, I’d buy that necklace for my mom. I’m off now at college, and my sister will be leaving for college next fall — leaving no more babies at home for my sweet mom. I’d love for her to have something that she could wear every day close to her heart and think of my sister and me. She is an amazing mother and I wish I could give her the world!

I’d also buy the sister necklace for my not-so-little-anymore sister 🙂

my favorite is the “family tree” necklace! We’ve been in the process to adopt a baby girl from Ethiopia for over 3 years & we FINALLY passed court with her this week! We are finally a family of four & I am dying to get this necklace w/ my WHOLE family on it! Thanks for doing this!

My absolute favorite piece is a teacher necklace I got last year. It is made from the concentric circles necklace and it says “Teach. Change the World.” I wore it constantly during a really tough year at school last year and unfortunately lost it while teaching in China this summer. If I win, I will get myself another one!!! My 2nd favorite is the Sister: Known, Loved, Understood…I gave it as a gift to my dear sister Allison!
