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!!
    My 31st birthday was just a few weeks ago and it was the best one that I can recall. I spent quality time with all of my family, got a new hair cut/color from my bestie, a birthday outfit from my parents, my house deep cleaned by my husband and a party with my closest friend’s. To top it all off, my 2 year old sang “Happy Birthday” to me! I don’t know if next year could possibly beat it! Although, I wouldn’t mind a spa day or something equally indulgent:-)

    Happy Birthday, Sherry! You share a birthday with my younger brother! This year for my 33rd B-day in May, I want to celebrate with my hubby and four kiddos at a restaurant that makes us all happy- pizza for all! I’d love to accessorize my family room, which needs some young house love with that gift card.
