Leapin’ Lilies – Grand Opening & Giveaway

By Vicki 25 Comments

Leapin' Lilies

Leapin’ Lilies began in 2005. It was my baby, my creative outlet. I started with kid’s clothing, but transitioned to jewelry. I created a line of necklaces I called the Blossom necklaces. They were my favorite pieces to create.

I struggled with building a business for a while until I realized that my timing was off. I had things to learn, a foundation to set with my family and skills to build. So I took a break, keeping my domain names and the dream tucked in my heart.

Right before I took the break that I felt God was leading me to, I made a pin.

It’s a bit rough, but it planted the seed. When I felt the time was right to start Leapin’ Lilies back up, I started playing around with my beads trying to figure out how to make this concept a more, ahem, attractive item.

And then, the Leapin’ Lilies Blossom pin was born.

And that brings us to now. Leapin’ Lilies is re-launching today! To celebrate the grand opening and my birthday, which is this weekend, there is a coupon code on the Leapin’ Lilies Facebook page to save you 29% in our Etsy shop!

And now…

It’s Giveaway Time!

I am offering a custom designed Blossom pin! The winner will choose the color scheme and I will put together some design options to create a pin just for you!

Winning is as easy as leaving a comment below. You can say whatever you want, but if you have a favorite Leapin’ Lilies item, I’d love to hear that, too!

Would you like more chances to win? Enter a comment for doing or having done each of the following:

  • Like Leapin’ Lilies on Facebook.
  • Like the Vicki Arnold blog on Facebook.
  • Subscribe to the Vicki Arnold blog either via email or through a reader.
  • Follow me on Twitter.
  • Tweet about this grand opening/giveaway post (use the Tweet button at the top of this post & you don’t even have to write the tweet, easy peasy.).
  • And finally, tell me twice below if you blog about Leapin’ Lilies, this blog or the giveaway!
  • *Newly Added* Share the link to this post on Facebook.

Want another Blossom pin? Well, today is Erin’s birthday and she’s giving away the Blossom pin below on her blog post today!

*****Edited to Add Below Information and to Add another chance for entry*****

Just to clarify, to enter the giveaway, you only need to comment on the blog post.

Then, if you can do any of the other things listed, leave an additional comment telling me which one. For example, if you are a fan here, you leave another comment telling me so. If you get the blog posts in your email, another comment. Make sense? 🙂

I will use a random number generator to get the # of the winning comment.

Giveaway closes Sunday, March 27, 2011 at 6:00 p.m. eastern. Winner will be notified via email. Thank you!
