***This giveaway has reached is now closed – see who won below!***
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! And an especially happy one to our randomly selected, lucky winner who goes by the name of… Oona (who will likely celebrate tonight with dinner at “a lovely vegan restaurant”). Congrats Oona!
We love celebrating Valentine’s Day with you guys by giving away some free jewelry, and this year Sherry’s especially stoked because the prize is coming from none other than Kendra Scott – one of her favorite places to request that I buy her earrings for various occasions (like the past two Christmases). Kendra Scott has definitely earned me a few husband points, so this (are you ready for it?) $500 gift card means that someone else out there can score major points from the one they love – or one lucky winner can grab her own jewels for herself. And probably have money leftover to share the wealth with a few friends or relatives. Oh and if you fancy yourself a Kendra Scott in the making, you can even use their Color Bar to customize several of their pieces. So yeah, Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

Jewel Me!!!
We celebrate Valentines Day now with a special dinner with our 4 kiddos. We eat heart shaped pizzas and drink root beer from wine glasses, all by candle light! And then we enjoy chocolate dipped strawberries and birthday cake to celebrate my husbands birthday on that day as well. :)
Rachel says
JEWEL ME!
We will be celebrating Valentine’s Day one day early this year – since 2/13/13 is the day we’re closing on our first ever house! We are so excited and can’t wait to start using all that DIY knowledge I’ve built up from reading YHL for so long! (Not kissing up to win mama some jewels, just sayin’ it b/c it’s true!) :)

My husband has a “surprise” planned (read: I’ll do my best surprised impression, but mama didn’t raise no fool — I know what it is).

Hi! I will be sending my son to school with a custom-made valentine’s mailbox to collect his goodies and Ninjago valentines for his classmates (that’s what 6 year old boys are into now). My boyfriend and I are hoping to be able to do chinese dinner and a movie. Hoping, because last year we couldn’t even go out on Valentine’s, he was sick. So let’s see!

We don’t typically do anything specific for Valentine’s Day, but this year we have an unintentional date night… I bought my husband a theatre-ticket subscription for Christmas and picked Thursday night shows, and the first of them happens to be this Thursday. So we’re going out to dinner beforehand and making a date of it. :)

We are sharing a nice romantic dinner at a fancy inn(my husband’s idea!) as new(er) parents this in itselft is few and far between!!!! Happy Valentine’s Day!
Valentine’s day is one of my faviorite holidays and I hate when people say it was made up by halmark, because growning up my mom owned a flower shop, so it was her busiest time!!!! I grew up with flowers around always!
Kelsi says
Jewel me!!
I’m a single mom, but always do something special with my son for Vday… Our little routine has become to go and get tempenyaki (sp?!) and then see movie. He has autism and is obsessed with the “volcano restaurant”… It’s actually quite cute because, at the age of 6, he already knows this to be or tradition. I also stick love letters in a mini mail box for him all week that he carries around town proudly. :-)
Sara says
Jewel Me!

I won’t really be celebrating this year because first, I’m single and second, it’s my birthday two days later so I will be getting excited for that. I’ll probably spend V Day cleaning the house in preparation for a visit from my mum.

JEWEL ME!!
We haven’t done anything special for Vday in years, but this year we are a little more broke than usual, so I think we’ll make a special dinner in since we haven’t gone out in ages!
Claire @ Claire K Creations says
JEWEL ME!!!
I will be baking a big rich chocolate cake tomorrow and I’m going to cook up a beef ragu and try my hand at pasta making (I’ll buy backups just in case) and have a special dinner with my hubs. It’s our first Valentine’s Day as a married couple so I figured I should make it a little special.
ps Yay to international shipping!
