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!

All I want for my birthday is to spend it with family, and to sleep in!
Kate says
BIRTHDAY ME! A great night with my friends at a local Cuban restaurant and bar.
Margaret says
Birthday Me!
For my birthday (it was a week ago) I wanted a murder mystery party. It. was. awesome. I was really bossy because I wanted everyone to be in character and pretend to be mobsters, but lucky for me, everyone got really into it (i think the punch had something to do with it). So after a few flickering lights and oscar err razzies worthy special effects, the mystery was solved. Def. give it a try sometime!

Btw I am in love with those ceramic squirrels!
Patty says
Birthday Me! My birthday (thirty-cough years young) was yesterday on St Patrick’s Day. My in-laws threw me a lovely party and every gift I got was something I wanted desperately (including your book and Ana White’s). I love Jonathan Adler, but his stuff is so pricey! Happy birthday to Sherry! I hope her big day is filled with love and joy.
Siobhan says
Birthday me! I would be very happy to have a day off work, sunny weather, good food and a relaxing and fun get together with my fab friends and family. Sometimes people are reluctant to have a birthday party as they get older. I think it’s all the more reason for one :)
Kasey Befeler says
BIRTHDAY ME! I keep thinking I’m turning the age I already am, so I guess I’m wishing to be a year younger! Or the same age, I mean.
Rachel says
BIRTHDAY ME!!
For my birthday I have been dropping hints about some Jonathan Adler items actually – so this is perfect because my husband has made it pretty clear that he is not them for me.
Margaret Ann says
Birthday me! I love going on a thrift-store crawl on my birthdays–ideally in the company of my amazing husband while the little ones stay home with their grandma.
Jazmyn says
My next birthday, June 8, I hope to receive a thoughtful card from my husband. I would really like either a Pandora bracelet, or a nice area rug for my living room…
Alix Cooney says
Birthday Me!
I would like a quiet night out with my husband!
