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!

    Happy birthday, birthday buddy! (I’ll be 29 tomorrow.) I would be most happy if my husband would plan out one meal a week (where I didn’t have to do anything!) on his own.
    A gift card to my favorite jewelry gal (http://alioesch.com) is also ALWAYS appreciated. :)

    My husband’s birthday gift to me always includes hot bedside delivery of a latte after sleeping in. That’s the only thing I want every year, and sometimes I get it as a random surprise. That’s my party!

    My husband and I share the same birthday, so we’ll probably do something fun, just the two of us. That said, I already have plans to go out with my 5 closest girlfriends to the Boyz II Men/NKOTB/98 degrees show in DC. Can’t wait!!

    BIRTHDAY ME: My birthday is actually coming up and I’ve always kind of fancied the surprise new car with the gigantic bow on top. But I think it might be more like a JA mug, which would be great too.
