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!

    My birthday is one month away exactly, and to be honest, I have NO idea what I’ll be asking for this year. I’m looking forward to having friends get together for a fun night out, and spending the day with my BF and family, who always make the day extra special.

    For my birthday, I’d like margaritas and Tex Mex, which doesn’t seem too much for a girl to ask. Also, a magic little pill that zaps away unsightly muffin top. (Maybe I should just lay off the margaritas and Tex Mex?)

    BIRTHDAY ME! For my next birthday, I’d like some little surprise from my husband – just a little something unexpected. He’s not the best about the “non-holiday” gifts or random “it’s tuesday” bouquet of flowers…but I always look forward to his gifts because they show how thoughtful he is and how well he listens!

    This year, I want a day off! We were moving into our first home on my 30th birthday last year. And while that was awesome, it was a lot of work. This year, I want a peaceful day doing something fun, preferably with cake.
