Her blog is absolutely wonderful!
Oh and one more thing!

Oh, I love her store! I've been eyeing the Fly Free necklace for a while, but I think I'd have to choose the Open Circle Necklace...

Posted by: Deb K | 09/30/2009 at 05:01 PM
Thanks for featuring Lisa's beautiful jewelry on your site! I hadn't heard of her before, and enjoyed browsing through all her pretty creations. I'd be hard pressed to choose just one piece, but I think the classic open circle necklace is so elegant in its simplicity...

I would pick the family tree necklace or the tiny squares necklace with my kids names on it.
Posted by: tara steele | 09/23/2009 at 11:05 AM
Ooh, it's hard to pick... I love the sweet and simple birdie necklace but I also love the friendship necklace too!!
Posted by: Melonie | 09/22/2009 at 10:34 PM
Fantastic Giveaway- I drooled over each and every one but my favorite is the large link bracelet with the initial charms - love it!
Posted by: Lara | 09/22/2009 at 03:01 PM
Absolutely love it all! Especially the jumble of charms necklace and the family crest necklace!
Posted by: Mindy | 09/19/2009 at 09:35 PM
Oh my! The Sweetheart Tree is such a perfect piece. It reminds me of one of my all-time favorite books, The Giving Tree. What a fun way to honor the one you love, thanks!!
Posted by: Meg T | 09/18/2009 at 01:32 PM
I love the 'Be Still' necklace and the 'Dewdrop' necklace... In fact, I love them all, truth be told. I love that they are hand-made and original works of art, not churned out of a factory in China. I love that they evoke sweetness and stillness and love of life and babes and partners. I would love to hang one around my neck, to hold when I'm not close to my babes and my partner and feel them near... Thanks for the chance to win!
Posted by: Katy | 09/17/2009 at 03:13 PM
I love love love the "sweet and simple birdie necklace." It's unusual and, yes, sweet and simple. Adore it, want it, need to have it. That is all.
Posted by: Carole Tedesco | 09/17/2009 at 10:54 AM

I long for a "family tree" necklace with the names of ALL my children, including two precious sons in Haiti we have been in process to adopt for over 18 months now.
Posted by: Stephanie (in Chile) | 09/15/2009 at 09:35 AM
The thin sterling cuff is my favorite!

Posted by: Darlene | 09/10/2009 at 04:19 PM
What a sweet sweet giveaway. I checked out LL site and I adore the laundry line necklace, how adorable is that? It would help me to remember why I do 17 bazillion loads of laundry a week for all of my men. Of course the little feet necklace is pretty charming also...
Posted by: Mrs. Dunbar | 09/10/2009 at 02:39 PM
The Family Tree necklace. As of right now we are three in the family and in February we will be adding a baby. I would love to have a necklace with all our names on it and The Family Tree one would be perfect.

I love the 'be still' necklace. I am going through a rough patch right now and keep reminding myself to be patient, be strong and 'be still'- content that everything that really matters is perfect and that 6 monthes from now this will all be a memory.
Posted by: Kristy | 09/10/2009 at 11:32 AM
