I put together a little video of our getaway in Santa Barbara. My favorite parts are when Matthias photo bombs Steve and I and the family shot at the very end. Makes my heart so, so happy.

DIY scarf tutorial {easy and fun!}
March 5th | inspiration, videos
I have been blown away by your response to our new hope{full} line. I hoped you would catch the vision of what we’re trying to do–but I had no idea how supportive and enthusiastic you’d be. My heart is full. Thank you!
The team and I had SO much fun styling the hope{full} scarves for the photoshoot. I thought it would be tricky to recreate the look–but it’s so do-able! Seriously fun and something different. Each video is only about 1 minute long–so take a moment and watch them.

I gave it try this weekend–and success! It was easy and it stayed in my hair all day. Now I think I want a scarf in every color.
I love this wearing this scarf and knowing I am helping to feed a child in need and changing the life of the woman that made it. It is humbling and inspiring. How are you wearing your hope{full} scarf?
brand new: our hope{full} collection
February 26th | jewelry, videos
Our hope{full} collection is finally here and I couldn’t be more excited to tell you about it!
Each piece from our hope{full} collection is fair trade, organic and sustainable, giving work to Ecuadorian women and building families and communities. Necklaces, bracelets and earrings are made from tagua seeds, which are harvested, carved and dyed vibrant, beautiful shades. We are also offering hand-made scarves that can be worn in your hair, around your waist, around your neck and any other creative way! Additionally, with the sale of each piece from the hope{full} collection, Lisa Leonard Designs will donate a portion of the proceeds back to Jungle Kids. For each piece sold we’re buying lunch for a child in need. That is awesome.
We put together a beautiful video that will give you an inside look at one of our photo shoots. I’m also sharing my heart behind the line. Check it out here:

sleep tight little ones.
March 1st | family, videos
steve just got back from a visit to india and it’s been making me reflect on how blessed we are. how thankful i am to tuck my boys into their cozy, warm beds at night. and they sleep away without a care in the world. our lives aren’t perfect but we are certainly blessed with every basic necessity. and i don’t want to take that for granted!
so as i tuck the boys in at night and my heart wants to explode with gratitude for their little lives. and i pray that God will protect them, and grow them into men who love the Lord. The video below is just a few seconds, but to me, it’s a treasure!
do you have kiddos? what do you pray for your children?
a lovely weekend
February 22nd | adventures, answering questions {videos}, family
steve was out of town so i took the boys to santa barbara to meet two of my sisters. they are so fun, laid back and a huge help. it was great to get away and be with aunties!
it’s been raining raining raining but sunday cleared up and was gorgeous. the sky was so blue and everything felt fresh. we walked around town a little and browsed anthropologie. fresh air and anthropologie–food for my soul ha!
i had been feeling discouraged with the constant sicknesses we’ve had this winter {both boys has strep last week} and it was wonderful to be out and be healthy.
aren’t my sisters amazing? they are two years younger and fraternal twins. i’m an identical twin. yep, my mom had two sets of twins and then my parents adopted a third set. and i have an older brother who’s not a twin, but don’t worry, he had twin daughters!
i am so blessed to have so many sisters and brothers {who are incredible aunties and uncles}. matthias and david have it pretty darn good.
susan and ellen it was so fun to hang out this weekend. you are the best!
are you close to your silbings?
here’s a little video of a rainy evening at the beach. music is NEW and so beautiful. it’s ‘out to sea’ by history of painters. take a listen {you’ll love it}.
