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! For my next birthday, I would LOVE it if they brought back to primetime television, “The West Wing”. Great show. Love it. Need to see Donna and Josh together and President Santos running the country. Weird wish. I know.

    BIRTHDAY ME! I’m on a diet so all I want is a Baskin Robbins ice cream cake. Or the chance to remodel our kitchen. Sadly, we rent here in NYC so the cake might be the more reasonable request.

    I’m kind of hoping for a new living room rug since my almost 2 year old accidentally dumped a quart of paint on our old one last week and my birthday is next week.

    A perfect birthday for me would be to come up with a huge menu for friends, have my boyfriend do all the grocery shopping. I get to do all the cooking and then invite friends over for a huge meal and Par-tay! then they get to do all the clean up! Cooking + no cleaning = sounds perfect to me!

    I just had a birthday (on the 5th) and I am that person in your life that is impossible to shop for because even I cannot think of a gift for myself.
    But if I had to ask for one thing, it would be a weekend away just the hubs and I. He travels all the time, so some alone time away from the kid and dog would be awesome.

    Birthday Me!
    About 9 months ago we bought our first home…however it had to be completely gutted in order to be lived in, so we have yet to live in it. It has been a fun adventure renovating our first home, but I am definitely ready to be living in it and to see our two little girls running around in it. So for my birthday this year I hope that we will be living in our home enjoying the day with my sweet family.

    Birthday me….my next birthday is one I have been waiting for for a long, long time. I turn 62 and can officially draw my social security. Since I have had to quit my job to stay home and take care of my dying husband, this check will really come in handy. It would be fun to win this prize and treat my home to a few fun finds!
