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!

    Saturday was my birthday and Jonathan Adler giant squirrel eraser was at the top of my list. However, my husband payed no attention to my birthday Pinterest board. If I win this then I can buy it for myself!!

    i hope next year i’ll be on my honeymoon! my fiancee is a huge cowboys fan, and his whole life all he wanted was to go to texas and see them play. we figured we wont be able to afford much, so my wedding gift (and xmas, and easter, and valentines day, and fourth of july — you get the point) present to him will be a trip next fall :)

    I hope he’s excited. I would looooove this though! This would make up for having to sit through an NFL game!
