Fab Freebie: A Literal Fab Freebie

***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***

You guys hit the 10,000 entry cap to giveaway within 24 hours, so you must love some Fab as much as I do (or perhaps you just like $500). Either way, we’ve crowned a random winner and it is… Whitney (who says “Most of my apartment is muted gray, yellow, and blue, but my kitchen has bright red baking dishes on display.”) Congrats Whitney!

I’m a recent addict to Fab (I own more t-shirts from there than I probably should admit). So imagine my reaction when I got an email from them offering to do a – wait for it – $500 Fab gift card giveaway for you guys. Their site includes items marked down between 10-60% from retail prices across just about every category – home, accessories, art, kitchen, pets, kids, clothing, jewelry, etc. And everything is selected with a discriminating-but-not-too-serious design eye. There’s an emphasis on quirky, weird, and colorful items within their sales… which means there’s a lot of fun to be had while spending the five hundred beans that are up for grabs.

Fab Dot Com Giveaway

  • PRIZE: A $500 gift card toward Fab
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FAB ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …what’s something weird, quirky, or colorful in your home that you love? Is it a bold art print in your entryway? An armchair with a happy pattern in your living room? Or several dozen ceramic animals placed throughout your house… not that we’d know anything about that.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, January 30th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond specific areas (more on that here). This giveaway is open to the United States, Canada, and much of Europe (click here for a specific list of countries)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
  • ***COMMENT ISSUES? If you’re trying to enter but keep getting a “duplicate comment” warning, click here to see how to solve it!

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Fab.

    I love my big portrait of a peacock painting I bought from a local artist. It is hung above my fireplace staring down at me when I sit on my couch across the way. I usually do not decorate with animals but this painting just speaks to me.

    I have a carved white rabbit that moves around the house. My husband and I play a game where we take turns tucking the rabbit away and hiding it from the other. Our rabbit has even been found in the freezer!

    The quirkiest thing in my house is my 1 year old daughter. My office however has a painting of a blue cat with six toes and a plate of cookies. I found it at a local thrift shop. The title of the painting is written on the back. It is aptly entitled “Blue Cat with Six Toes and a Plate of Cookies”.

    FAB ME please. The quirkiest thing….I have a lot of monkey items. I made the mistake of telling friends that I like monkeys and that quickly became a nickname and I started receiving all things monkey; from wooden statues to ceramic ones-they are in every room.

    My husband recently got two old coke ice chests from his boy scout troup a LOT of years ago. They weren’t new when his troup used them, so they’re pretty old/vintage/funky. We made a platform on casters, added a plexiglass top, and now they’re our sofa end tables.

    I have a little wooden human form model (the kind used for drawing classes) that I put on display just because. I love changing his body positions and poses…it’s my weird form of entertainment. He’s currently in a muscle man pose while sitting in the splits.

    I have a huge gorgeous print of a photograph (taken by my dad!) of blurred tulips in the grass hanging in my living room. Purples, yellows, pinks, greens–it’s all very vibrant and I love it. It’s also a major conversation starter.

    I’m staring at the magenta puffing figurine I have up on my bookcase right now. It;s about a foot tall and 1/2 foot wide. I bought it from a store display .. no regrets because it’s beautiful and QUIRKY! I do think I want to paint it a new colour sometime soon though.
