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!

BIRTHDAY ME!
We’re pretty low key about birthdays around here and have never gotten into gifts, more just dinners and a bottle of wine. I’d love a long weekend away as suggested by my awesome boyfriend, but with travel to multiple weddings this year I can’t spare of day of vacation time!

I threw myself a small birthday party this year and while it was nice to have all my peeps together, it was sort of stressful. (we had a HUGE plumbing issue hours before the party!) next year I think I’m just sticking with a nice dinner and some ice cream with my fella and my pooch.

BIRTHDAY ME
For my birthday, I’d LOVE to have every single line of our Home Improvement To-Do List crossed off and my house to finally look exactly like I see it in my head. THEN, I’d have a big party and invite all my friends over and wouldn’t have to feel like I have to tell everyone who walks in how I’m going to change things so they don’t think I’m content with the way my house looks now!

Stefanie says
BIRTHDAY ME!
Ahhh, I’m turning 30 in less than two weeks! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH.
For my birthday I want a stack of waffles as high as I am tall covered in warm delicious maple syrup, and a plate of bacon still sizzling from the skillet, and a neverending glass of mimosas followed by a playdate in the park with my kids on a perfect 76 degree sunny day (the perfect temperature) and a bike ride around Lake Grapevine followed by a trip antique shopping with my bottomless wallet, and a lovely evening at home with the world’s largest birthday cake (what is better than birthday cake? Nothing, that’s what). And a bubble bath. And a quirky Netflix movie. And a new pair of Hunter boots. And a new pair of printed boyfriend jeans. And a ukulele. And five white tank tops from the Gap in size medium. And…
that is all.
Allyson M says

Katie says
BIRTHDAY ME
My birthday was just last month, so it’s a bit early to be thinking about the next one, but the only wish I had was to have a cake.
That sounds weird, but for some reason, I haven’t had one in a few years. And my wish came true! I got not only one, but TWO cakes at work.
Jenn says
BIRTHDAY ME! I hope for my next birthday that I receive something my husband selected on his own that sparkles and lasts forever, ;) aka more diamonds!

Birthday me!
What an amazing giveaway. Hm, my birthday is a few months away – and by that time I hope to be living in a new house, with a new job, and with a completed Master’s degree! If all those things are done and have come true… I will be very satisfied.
