Thanks to all who entered our Show Us Your Collections contest! We thought all the entries were inspiring, but this one from Anna in Philadelphia wooed us completely. See her description below.

“I recently moved to Philadelphia. As I slowly set up my apartment, one of the first things I did was set up my dog wall. As a dog lover extraordinaire, having these pooches up on my wall, watching out for me (and my real pooch Ruby, see photo of her keeping me company while studying) makes me feel better.”

Congratulations, Anna! You win the John Derian for Target goodies! Hooray!
