***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.
- 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…

FAB ME!
I just realized I don’t have anything brightly colored in my house. :( Maybe this competition will give me the chance.
Juliane says
FAB ME! I love my colorful vintage pin up artwork we hung up in the kitchen. The beautiful lady sais: Eat more fruit, for health and vitality! Greeting from Berlin, Germany
Sarah Stäbler says
FAB ME!
The quirkiest thing we have in our house is an orange, life-sized glass head. My husband got it years ago and doesn’t remember from where exactly. Funny thing is, I saw the exact same head in blue last weekend at the flea market! But I figured one glass head was enough so I didn’t pick up the second one. I have transformed our orange one into a lamp and I put a fedora hat on it. Very quirky for sure!

I absolutely love the cyan painted wall in my office. People are usually shocked when they see it for the first time but it’s something everybody remebers ^^
Svenja says

I have an enormous bookshelf with tons of books. All assorted by colour.
Amanda Sch. says
FAB ME!
I have a camel head hanging in my bedroom. Yes, a wooden camel head/neck. It made me laugh when I saw it so I knew it was meant to be. :P

I honestly can’t think of anything quirky that’s in my house…
Laura says
Fab me!
I have a lovely and colorful collection on nesting dolls at the top of my bookshelf
Christina says
FAB ME!
I love bird-themed accessories! Most of my Xmas ornaments are birds. Lots of bird jewelry, too. Bird mugs, bird hangers, you catch the drift.
And in each of my girls rooms there is a small colorful ceramic bird (one in hot-pink, one in bright blue) that chirps when you pass by…
Angie says
FAB ME!
I truly have very little that is funky or quirky in my home — if you’re not counting my kiddoes. I’m looking to change that!
Thanks!
Ewo says
Fab me!!!
I love to expose the brightest book covers on my bookshelves!
Helen says
FAB ME!
We have a coral stone fireplace surround that goes floor to ceiling. I always felt the large expanse of fossilized stones needed something… One day my daughter left her collection of tiny gumball machine bugs on the floor in front of the fireplace. At first it was a way to teach her a lesson for leaving a mess but they looked so natural in the little nooks and crannies that they remain there today, fifteen years later. The effect is very subtle and so people don’t see them at first. The best part, watching the expressions as they finally notice the “infestation”.
Priscila F. says
Fab ME!!! I love the nightstands my husband and I have in our bedroom. They are brand new and make me happy every time I look at them! Thanks for this lovely give away!
Natalie says
FAB ME!
I have a poem written in cyrillic that was a gift from a relative framed right by the entrance
Jenia says
FAB ME!
I think, at this point, the most colorful object in our apartment is the moroccan-style chandelier we brought from Muscat, Oman. Think brass and multi-color glass mosaics!
Julie says
FAB ME!
I have birds everywhere in my house, on wallpaper, pictures, ornaments and more. My kids think I’m crazy.
Jenni says
Fab me!
My dining room chandelier was a diy project that includes a bunch of pieces from the plumbing aisle of home depot. It turned out great though!
Elisa says
FAB ME!!
We have a bright orange coat hanger that matches a huge umbrella stand in our entryway. They are original from the fifties and it’s like they are welcoming with a colorful “hello” everybody who enters the house!
Aoife says
FAB ME! I have a 10 aperture frame filled with fabulous multicoloured hand-marbled paper. Each piece was given to me by my Mother who bought them on her travels around Italy. A beautiful and unique pop of colour that reminds me of her.
Heather Lagemann says
“FAB ME!”
We have a cardboard deer head from Anthropologie that greets those who walk into our back door.

Fab me!
Our lounge has cushions with funny little green birds on that I love there is also a vase with blue peacocks on it in there… I’m thinking I’m going to build on the theme and make it the quirky bird (maybe a ceramic bird is what’s needed next!)
Lauren says
FAB ME!
I have some funky blue chairs in my living room. Eclectic and the center of attention when you walk in.

Fab Me! I love my orange Fiestaware salt and pepper shakers and cream & sugar sets, they are so bright and cheery on my table and they make me happy everyday!
eleonora says
FAB ME!
we have a heater shaped as a yellow lego brick in our kitchen, and no one understand what it’s use at a first glance! It definitely gets a lot of attention….
Carina D says
FAB ME…
My budgie lamp… Bit like your moose lamp but with a budgie instead! I think most people are confused by it but I love it!
Amy Cole Farrell says
Fab me!!! I have this large cobalt blue vintage kitchen scale with a rooster on the dial plate. I bought it very cheap at a flea market in Berlin, Germany. It sits on top of our bookshelf in our living room since it takes up too much counter space in our kitchen. :)
Rachael says
Fab me!
I love my bright pumpkin orange kitchen walls!
Holly H says
Fab Me!
I have a quirky bold printed shower curtain and I also love our bright turquoise built in dresser.

Tine says
We have a bright green striped carpet that stays outside in summer (making our garden an extra livingroom) and in the kitchen in winter, where it brightens up the room)
Kate says
FAB ME
We have an abstract cream and brown print of the London skyline in our lounge – I am in the UK by the way!
Nicole says
FAB ME!!!
I have neutral decoration in our living room (tan couch and loveseat, dark brown and light tan throw pillows) so that with all the toddler stuff around, it looks less cluttered. However, There is a bright turquoise throw pillow with shaggy chenille (don’t know how else to describe it) texture on the couch that I love. I’ve recently added 2 more throw pillows in bright turquoise with an airplane screen print. The toys will have to hide under neutral camouflage from now on. Bring on the fun colorful pillows!
angelina says
fab me! a 5′ by 5′ shower curtain turned artwork hanging above our master bed:)
Kate W. says
FAB ME!!!
I don’t really have anything quirky or weird, but I love browsing on fab.com and dream of the things I would love to buy. I would have SO much fun with a gift certificate there!
Linda says
FAB ME!!! Pretty please.
Sonia says
FAB ME!
I love the safe deposit box in our bedroom. It was already in there when we rented the apartment and we can’t even open it… but it’s so funny to dream about what’s inside…
Hi from Spain!!
Jenny says
FAB ME! My boyfriend brought back these amazing red and orange table runners with beads and animal motifs from S. Africa, I love them! We have them on our D.R. table, coffee table, and even hanging on our walls :)
Dana says
Fab me!
I love the rug in our dressing room: it’ a huge piece of grey long-haired faux-fur that i’ve folded 3 times to get the right shape and thickness. It looks great and is sooo soft underfoot!
(How exciting! A giveaway open to Europe too! Thank you!)
Oonagh says
FAB ME!
