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!

    For my 30th birthday I want to throw a 90s party. I want to enter my 30s with a bang. Overalls, grunge-wear, hyper color shirts, spice girls, gangsta rap, etc. EVERYTHING 90s. That is my wish!

    I’ll be happy when all my old stuff from the USA arrives in Perth. We’ve been waiting over 2 months now and have 1 more month… But my birthday is in June so I’ll probably want some new home decor and clothes and shoes by then.

    My 32th birthday was a week ago! It was a great deal of fun but I think that next year, I want a Mad Hatter Tea Party for the celebration. And, I’ll drop hints about gift cards to plant nursery’s so that I can go wild with my garden.

    Um, ok so this is perhaps too personal but what I really want for my birthday this year is to be on my way to starting a family. Pregnant or otherwise. Just putting it out there in the universe.

    Ceramic animals would be great too though. =)
