Love all things Jonathan Adler...great giveaway!!
Adorable. Hmmm on a side table in the living room??! Great giveaway-thank you.
This is lovely!
It's believed that white elephants signify spiritualism...
would definately display it on the night stand table near my prayer books.
On my entry table with a funky lamp!
So cute and he'd (yes I've decided he's male) have pride of place sat next to my bright yellow lambanana!!
I would place this beauty in my living room on one of my tables or bookshelves. My boyfriend and I have a huge ongoing joke about elephants and I adore anything elephant decor! Especially if I can put some pennies into him for savings..
This gorgeous elephant would go on my nightable!
Love it! I'd put in my bedroom somewhere- prob my dresser that has jewelry and other knick nacks.
I just RT- @laviejaime :)
Oh I want, I want- I'd put this prized little ellie in my master bedroom- it's been needing a little whimsy.
Tweeted!!
Another cute animal to add to my apparently growing collection. I'd probably put it on my bookshelf next to or near my JA lion. A little menagerie to keep my books company.

well, this is fun! i have a slight obsession with banks (not to mention JA), and this little guy would look great with the rest!
he'd hang out in the bedroom until a babe came along - total nursery material.
thanks for the giveaway!
Oh am I in love with him or what? Too cute! I would put him next to my ceramic pineapple. Both are known to bring luck, and because I'm currently looking for my future place I think he would look wonderful in my entry way.
Thank you so much for posting this giveaway!
I'm remodeling my kitchen, probably in a nook painted in our family's signature color : orange
I recently found an amazing antique bar cart on craigslist for our front entrance. This beautiful elephant would sit proudly on top, greeting all ofour guests at the front door!
He's so cute!! I'd put this in my living room. Adorable!!
Tweeted!! :)
This is so adorable! I have a thing for elephants :) I have a small ivory elephant that a friend brought back from India and this bigger elepehant will go right next to it :)
Too cute! I'd love have this little fella for my office. Thanks for the great giveaway!
There's a place of honor on my mantel, along with other white porcelain, ceramic and pottery items. Looking forward to winning it!! ;-))

This is darling! For now, it'd be in my bedroom- the safest place from my little girl. One day when we have a mantel or decent bookshelves, it will live there. Or I might give it to my best friend who likes elephants. :)
My best friend (who has always loved elephants) just told me she's pregnant - how cute would this be in the future nursery!!
I love Jonathan Adler!!! My allllllll time fav', pick me!
have a family friend who is an elderly gentleman. He's been collecting elephant figures since forever and I'd love to give this to him!
great give away :)
This is such a wonderful treat. Thank you!
Amazing elephant, and I love that it's fair trade :) I would let this little beauty live on the shelf in my niece's nursery. Great giveaway, escapade!

loving this adorable and stylish good luck piece.
I would display in my baby's nursery!
Good question though I'm thinking on the cocktail table in my living room with some of the great books I've amassed. I'm at .
Btw... just tweeted :D
I would love to put it on my bedside table, a cute elephant to wake up to every morning!
I would display this piece on my acrylic console table :)
Oh, I'd put him on the bookshelf in our living room.
I love love love Jonathan Adler:) This little guy would go in my dining room on my black cubed bookshelf that has each shelf dedicated to a white porcelain vase. What a great giveaway!
I would put the little lovely on a shelf in my daughter's nursery!
I love him! He's so super cute!
Oh wow, he is adorable. I would LOVE to display him in my bedroom, next to my Buddha. You see, I have a red sari brought back from India hanging over my bed like a canopy, and it has an elephant and paisley print. This elephant is the perfect compliment!
I want one so bad I also tweeted it: https://twitter.com/#!/starbreiz
This is a must on my desk. I have a few gems together on a tray to give me such a delight and this elephant would definitely do that.
Love anything elephants! This would be lovely on my side table in my living room!
Love it so much! Absolutely on my mantle in the living room!
By my window. The one of two windows that points to the street that everyone in my court must pass by. The one window that always has the thick curtains drawn hiding my room from the world. The one window that could be holding a surprise to those that cared to look for more than a glance. The one window that could really use an elephant. But only if I win. =)
I would place this in one of my three built in bookcases. I think this is an awesome giveaway!

I LOVE JA! I've had my eye on this bad boy for a while too. It would go in our guest bedroom along with the other elephants I've collected over the years as gifts or from my travels.
Love. Love. Love!
I just blogged about the JA Whale Butter Dish that passed me by...
It's just that bit of whimsy that brightens your day.
Great giveaway! I would put it on the bookshelf in my kitchen where everyone would see it!
Oh cute! I would display him on a shelf in my kitchen (I could use some good luck when cooking..) :o)

I fell in love with live elephants last time we visited the zoo. This would be displayed on my living room credenza for all to see.

just made my first living space purchase--a 1967 14-foot trailer! this little elephant would join me in the turquoise kitchen (when i'm not driving) and be an inspiration for the ecclectic modern look i want to create. i also need all of the good luck that trunk will bring. :)
