Lisa Leonard jewelry
I’ve never been a fan of charm bracelets until I saw Lisa Leonard’s custom, hand-stamped jewelry. Her gold and silver pieces are feminine, expressive, and stylish. No clunky tea pots and train cars among her wares. I particularly like her open circle and oval pieces.
I’m not the only one who is a fan. Lisa’s jewelry has been spotted on celebrities like Josie Bisset and Jason Priestly’s wife Naomi. One of Lisa’s most popular pieces is her heart strings necklace, which starts at $58. One to four hearts are stamped onto a 1 1/4-inch sterling disk, then you can add names and a pearl. Very sentimental.
Lisa has generously offered a 20% off site wide coupon code. Use bargainbabe20 when checking out (all lower case). The coupon code is good through Wednesday, July 28 at 11:59 p.m. PST.
Lisa also makes pieces for men, including a key chain that says “my daddy is a superhero” and a sterling ring imprinted with a message or name. She has non-custom pieces that feature whimsical designs and simple, powerful messages. One necklace dubbed “every corner of my heart” has a sterling heart in the corner of a textured square.
Lisa also writes a blog with pictures of her family’s adventures, the food they cook, and musing about life.
