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! I just recently had my birthday in February. I got to do exactly what I wanted to do! We went to a bakery in Columbus, OH called Pistacia Vera (www.pistaciavera.com) to get macarons! Then we went to Brio! My best friend surprised me by coming into town… it was a great way to ring in the big 25! I cant wait to see what the next year holds! (Hopefully it holds a lot more MACARONS!)

    For my next birthday I hope for lots of white ceramic animals and a longer lens for my camera to photograph them far away. Because elusive white ceramic animals are sneaky like that.

    I have a hate/hate relationship with my birthday that goes way, way back. Honestly the only good thing I can say about my birthday is it means I am not dead yet. Kind of a downer, I know. A JA squirrel would cheer me up, though, so here’s hoping!
