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!

Jonathan Adler Giveaway Moodboard

  • PRIZE: A $500 gift card to Jonathan Adler

    While I would love a Longchamp bag to make it’s way in time for my birthday next year, what I would love more is for my husband and I to be closing on our first home by then. That would just be magical. :)

    I’ve just had my birthday (March 4th) but for my next birthday I’d love for my husband to take me away for a couple of nights. With 4 kids my birthday isn’t really relaxing especially as I have to cook dinner and make my own birthday cake. Oh well maybe next year we can go out together :)

    My birthday wish would be for a great big bag of money (containing the remainder of a house down payment we have yet to save) to fall miraculously from the sky (but not on me). We haven’t found THE house yet, but it would be nice to be able to snatch it up when we find it. :)
