ABOUT LISA | I have been making jewelry since high school but i decided to get serious after my first son, David, was born. I wanted to start a small business that would enable me to quit my job and stay home with my boys. At the time, I had never taken any formal classes or received special training in jewelry making. I just went for it! I am kind of the "jump in and learn as you go" type. Creating jewelry not only allowed me to work from home, but has connected me with so many amazing women along the way.
My desire is to create simple, lovely pieces that can be worn with jeans or your little black dress. I want each piece to be 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. When an idea hits me I sketch it out and play until the perfect design comes together.
Lisa Leonard Designs exists because moms, grandmas and friends have shared our designs with each other while waiting in line at the grocery store or sipping coffee with a friend. Most of our customers find us through word of mouth. We know that you'll find the perfect piece.
Come visit my blog to hear more of our story and please share your story with us!

Ooooh, I have been having so much fun making lists of things I want from these sites I almost missed the deadline!
The necklace is so pretty - I can already feel it around my neck! I may have to order before the drawing just so I KNOW it is on it's way!
Happy New Year, and thank you for the chance!

Awesome giveaway again! Finally joining in on One Word this year. A necklace to remind me to "believe" would be awesome! Thanks for the chance.

Two Christmases ago my husband had Lisa make me a charm necklace with three initial heart charms for our kids. One Friday I moved the charms to a really pretty little heart bracelet from Tiffany's a dear friend had given me 20 yrs ago, so that my toddler daughter could be kept busy during school mass. Both were lost that day in our hustle bustle of running errands. I've searched high and low and have been heart sick ever since. just not in the budget anytime soon to replace. A one little word necklace would be so nice.
