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! We are about to move cross contry so I’m sure I’d love something to decorate our new place with. Or just a few hours alone to go fabric shopping and get a massage – I just had a baby so time alone is a luxury.

    When my birthday rolls around I make a long list of all the most expensive things I could hope for and then my husband picks the cheapest and most reasonable item on the list.

    BIRTHDAY ME!

    For my next birthday I want someone to throw me a massive surprise party. Something really whacky that I won’t expect. I want to be so overjoyed that I cry! I’ll probably just get a cupcake and a hug and sloppy kisses from my 2 year old though, but I guess I’d be pretty stoked about that anyway!

    Oh and Happy birthday $herdog! In Australia it’s already your bday!

    My birthday was in January. After a few really horrible years with both health and money issues, 2013 has been a lucky year so far! Most things have changed for the better and I feel like I got a great gift. Next birthday, next year, I just want more of the same good stuff!
