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 just bought a piggy bank that’s not a pig, but a unicorn sitting on it’s haunches. It’s for my daughter, but it is definitely the weirdest thing I have in my house!

    FAB ME! I have this weird, fabric rooster that my grandfather used to get to lay eggs every night after dinner. I didn’t figure out how he did it until I was almost 30! It lives in our dining room and reminds me of wonderful dinners at my grandparents’ house.

    We have a ceramic bathtub that my husband up cycled into a couch. It is red, white, and blue and fitted with Danish bright and bold fabric for its cushion and pillows. It is definitely a wild and bold piece and frankly, we aren’t sure where to put it in our English cottage, but we love it and want to keep it.

    Probably the most quirky/colorful thing we have hanging up right now is a Tugboat Press print called “Forest.” It’s pretty brightly colored, although I would stop short of “lurid.”

    I have a little collection of art that the kids in my life have drawn me over the years. I hang them on the side of the pantry and I love seeing all the little drawings collected there. :-) They would be completely meaningless to anyone else, but make me smile on a daily basis.

    I have a collection of vintage small decorative mirrors hanging on the wall in my hallway, along with bronzer animal head hooks from Anthro. They’re all arranged assymetrically and the hooks hold my bolder statement necklaces! It’s a super quirky arrangement of thins but it doubles as wall art and organization!! Double win for me. Plus it’s makes me smile when I walk past!
