Fab Freebie: Sherry’s Birthday Wish

***This giveaway has reached its cap and is now closed – see who won below!***

You guys shut this puppy down with 10,000 entries in less than a day. Wow! So we’ve already selected our random winner. She is… Rhonda (who thinks she’s gonna ask for a juicer – to go along with her Christmas blender). Congrats!

Tomorrow is Sherry’s 31st birthday. So a few weeks ago I asked her if she wanted to do anything special giveaway-wise to celebrate. She looked dreamily towards the sky, a smile spread across her face, and she said “I want to do a Jonathan Adler giveaway and I want a picture of him holding ceramic animals and grinning like a fool. Because we are kindred spirits. That would pretty much make my year.”

A week later this photo appeared in my inbox:

Jonathan Adler Giveawy Ceramic Animals

The girl wanted a Jonathan Adler giveaway (you can read more about her love of the guy here) and the girl got it. The wonderfully cheerful people of Jonathan Adler were completely down with the idea (and the ceramic-animal-centric photo, apparently) so they’ve offered up a whopping $500 for one lucky winner to spend on whatever they’d like – animal or otherwise. Beyond obsessing over his white ceramic creatures, Sherry shares his love of poppy patterns, colorful accents, and chic accessories that don’t take themselves too seriously. So, um, happy birthday to one of you!

    BIRTHDAY ME!

    Usually I like to be on vacation for my birthday but I think this year I will be in LA. I am hoping to take a spa day and get a massage, facial, etc. I want to be pampered! My family will hopefully be visiting that weekend too so it should be fun!

    BIRTHDAY ME!!

    The 19th is my 50th birthday. HBD Sherry and Arielle!

    I love birthdays, I am not worried about getting old but I don’t like being the center of attention. I did NOT want a surprise party. My family celebrated this past weekend. My husband travels 4 days a week so he will be gone tomorrow. I am being treated to lunch by one bff and a dinner party by my breakfast club girls. My birthday wish is to not gain any weight after eating out twice in one day. Well, that and a trip to the JA store in my city would be fantastic.

    “BIRTHDAY ME”
    I have a few friends now who make it a tradition to be out of the country (or out of the country they’re currently living in, since most are Aussies and Kiwis) for their birthday. I think this is definitely a tradition I’d like to start – maybe a birthday trip is in order for next year!

    Birthday Me! I’m hoping for this wonderful and very cheerful painting that I found in San Antonio. It is of a blue dog and the skyline of San Antonio is behind the dog. The dog, I will add, looks very much like my dog. It is sentimental to me!
