renewed love and a special give-away!

So, I've found a long, lost love! Jewelry. Long, long ago I had a passionate affair with jewelry. Lots of it. Bangles up and down my arms, anklets, toe rings, several necklaces at once, and intricate seed bead earrings. Much of it I made. When I hit my mid twenties, I simplified... but still adorned myself. Then I had a child. I simplified some more. I stopped wearing all but my wedding band. This has gone on for 11 years, with only an occasional bit of mild bling for special occasions, or a borrowed bauble from my mom now and then. But now, now I'm finally ready. I decided that I want to wear something simple and delicate that makes me feel strong and beautiful. Lisa Leonard's Designs have been calling out to me. It's quite likely that you have seen her work before... she sponsors some very good women. I was searching and I found the just right piece to wear everyday. Although it is so gorgeous, I bet I'll keep it on for special occasions, too. This little sterling silver necklace is called "be still". It has a tiny bird resting beside two reeds. I can just imagine when my day is spinning out... I will touch that little bird and remember to breathe. I will think about the quiet place out back where the reeds grow tall and the red-winged blackbirds perch. Lisa is generously gifting one lucky reader this very necklace, also. I'm so excited and deeply grateful to have this opportunity for such a lovely give-away. Lisa puts so much love and thought into what she creates. Do go visit her shop and admire all of the incredible work that she does. You may also find another perfect piece... or two. Her blog is gorgeous, also: a reflection of what a remarkable woman, mother, and artist she truly is. Her spirit shines through instantly... you'll see. If you would like to have a chance to wear this extremely special piece... filled with peace... to slip "be still" around your own neck, please leave a comment in this post before Friday, the 18th at 5 pm EST. I will announce the winner on Saturday.

On a little side note: I absolutely adored styling this jewelry photo shoot. Who knew? Pin It

  65. I have been coveting her jewelry for a long time. I hope I win!

    ReplyDelete
  66. I have also recently started putting my jewelry back on. I've had a baby to tug on, or suck on, my necklaces for the last three years. Now my baby just turned 1 and she is not so obsessed with jewelry so I feel its safe to start wearing it again.

    ReplyDelete

  72. Oh i love this necklace, and now I love the designer too! Lovely photo shoot!

    ReplyDelete
  73. I am in the same predicament. I stopped wearing jewelry when I had kids, although I used to love it, and also used to make my own when I could. I haven't found that piece that I could wear all the time. This one is so lovely. And I like the sentiments.... a little reminder to be still in the madness. A little calling for those mad little ones to be still for a moment.

    ReplyDelete
  74. I've had nearly the same jewelry "epiphany" lately after forgoing for so long for the sake of babies' yankings... Would love this sweet necklace too!

    ReplyDelete
  75. beautiful work - I love these pieces. Perfect gift for my bff who is a mommy for a second time, she can wear her family when not with them...love this.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Lovely! I've also been thinking about starting to wear jewelry again (why does that feel like such a tough decision?) and this would be just the ticket. . .

    ReplyDelete
  77. I would love to give this to my daughter who is going through a tumultuos time right now ...please enter me in th edrawing !

    ReplyDelete
  87. What a lovely necklace! I am in the process of trying to learn to "be still." As a full-time working mom and active volunteer, I feel like I am constantly running. It is a good reminder that sometimes we need to stop and be still or we miss the little things.

  168. "Be Still & Know" was a song I listened to following repeated miscarriages. My son is currently 8. This song still hold a special place in my heart for it provided me with much peace during our loss & hope in God's faithfulness. I'd wear this necklace as a physical reminder of where I was & where God has taken me.

  180. One of my favorite Bible verses is:
    "Be still, and know that I am God." ~ Psalm 46:10
    How perfect to be able to wear this beautiful necklace as a reminder to stop . . . and be still.
    Absolutely perfect.

    Thank you for sharing such talent!
