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:
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!

Kim says
BIRTHDAY ME!
I hope for my next birthday to just not be working on my house. This year (my 30th) I spent my birthday tiling a tub surround. Next year I’d love to just go out to dinner and see a move….anything that doesn’t involve thinset and ceramic shards.
KateK says
Birthday me! Sadly all I want for my next birthday is a massage. This work chair is the pits. It’s seriously aging me by the second. That and a burger cooked on the grill. My birthday is in June and summer couldn’t get here faster… I live in WI…
KateK says
And by burger I mean a cheeseburger, not a dog named Burger. :)
Karen says
BIRTHDAY ME!

For my birthday this year I’m mainly just hoping for some beautiful Spring weather (May 2, but this is Ontario) and a REALLY GOOD CAKE =D
Jaimi says
BIRTHDAY ME!
Filling my flower boxes and planters will be a family affair this year on my birthday.
Well done on the fantastic birthday picture of Mr. Adler!
Alexis says
Birthday me!
A party I didn’t have to clean up after would be awesome!
Julie D says
Birthday Me! For my next birthday (this Thursday) I hope to celebrate it by spending time with family and friends and eating some delicious dessert! Oh…and I plan to not do a. single. chore.
Linda says
Birthday ME!! Since handy, household improvements are not my husband’s idea of a good time, I would love to have my own personal handyman for a day. Or a week. Or a month.
Scott says
BIRTHDAY ME!
I just celebrated the big 3-1 a month ago with a ski trip to Bend, OR. My wife and I always like to do trips instead of gifts, so next year we’ll go somewhere else fun.
Kiley says
Birthday me!
And like another reader, I’d love a surprise party!
Robin says
BIRTHDAY ME!
I haven’t thought much about my birthday this year–I’m happy with a few special treats from my husband and hearing from the rest of my family!
Nina says
BIRTHDAY ME! …well, since my birthday is coming up in 11 days, i´m hoping for enough money for a kitchen aid. Let´s see how that plays out…:) At least we´re having a candy- filled party!

Jessica F. says
BIRTHDAY ME!
It’s been a while since I had a proper birthday celebration, so I’d be happy with just about anything that makes the day a little brighter than normal!
Julie says
Birthday Me…for my next birthday, I just wanna get pizza and a snow cone with the three cuties I share a house with!

BIRTHDAY ME!
Since I will be moving to Florida before my birthday, I want to spend my next one at Disney World! (Also asking for a Cameo Silhouette because I need it for stuff and things.)
Kristen Baird says
BIRTHDAY ME!
My birthday is coming right up-this Sunday in fact, and I wanted to do something special and a little different this year since it’s my big 3 0. So my hubby, two kids, and myself are going to spend the day going around our town doing 30 acts of intentional (and random-hoping opportunities will present themselves) kindness.
So excited!
Caroline says
BIRTHDAY ME…My birthday is coming up. Hoping for nubby linen fabric to try my hand at a DIY-headboard!

Heather says
BIRTHDAY ME!! I want a VSA necklace for my next bday!

Happy Birthday Sherry!
I love low-key birthdays. Dinner in and time on the couch is perfect for me!

BIRTHDAY ME… for my next birthday I want a Heart Rate Monitor and a NEW KITCHEN!!!
Jen says
“Birthday Me” I just want my husband and three little boys to be with me on my next birthday.
Laura Ingalls Gunn says
BIRTHDAY ME~ growing up birthdays were not a big deal so its always somewhat hard for me to be the center of attention. I generally host a luncheon with friends and nothing closely resembling candles or cake is mentioned or served. It’s just a nice time spent with friends.
Whitney says
BIRTHDAY ME
I really want my husband to chip my GTI… or put new brakes on it. :P
Angelo says
BIRTHDAY ME
a nice new to me record player

Birthday me! I’m hoping my husband is not deployed for my birthday. Fingers crossed!

BIRTHDAY ME! My Birthday is right before Easter this year. I’m hoping for a home cooked meal (and a job offer!). Love that they sent you that photo haha
Lindsey says
BIRTHDAY ME…
I turned 30 this year, and all I wanted for my birthday was an experience, to go somewhere and do something. To me, that seems like a good wish for future birthdays, too!
Melissa says
BIRTHDAY ME!!!
I am expecting our second baby girl, so for my birthday this year all I want is to be home with my husband and two healthy girls!
mp says
BIRTHDAY ME!
I’d love for my MBR reno to be completed by my next birthday, in mid-October.
Allison says
BIRTHDAY ME! I just had a birthday a few months ago, so luckily I have 8 more months to think of birthday gift ideas.
Jill says
BIRTHDAY ME! My birthday is in about a month, but there’s no particular thing I want. Ice cream sounds good!
Megan says
Birthday Me!
Just a nice day with my family!
Lindsay says
Birthday Me!!
I’ve been eying this cookie cake at our grocery store for days… I just hope they still have it in April when my birthday comes around :-P

I would love to go to the Inn at Little Washington for my birthday. Dream big!
Sherry Fraser says
BIRTHDAY ME…….My daughter and family have moved to a town a few hours away so my big wish for my birthday this year is to spend it with them…..love my grandchildren……don’t care about presents.
Kira says
BIRTHDAY ME! Since I’ll be having my first baby in April, by the time my birthday rolls around in January, I’ll probably want a night out to our favorite Mexican restaurant, complete with margaritas, sans little people. :-)
deanna p says
BIRTHDAY ME
I’d love a new dresser and bed, but I’ll take a huge tub of nearly naked popcorn in coconut oil….
Thanks!
