***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!!!!!!!!!
Casey Ocasio says
FAB ME!
My husband and I have a full size NY MTA replica sign from our station in Brooklyn where we lived during our year long engagement. The fantastic contrast of the orange, black and white set the tone for our current living room in the home we bought in Cleveland, OH and it holds such great memories. The stop? Myrtle JMZ… Bushwick love!
Steff says
Fab me!
Our orange owl planter!
Missy B says
FAB ME!
We removed an ancient alarm system box by our back door and found a patch of the most awesome 70’s brown and orange wallpaper – I’m keeping it there for now!
Eileen says
FAB ME!! One of the quirkiest things in our house that I just LOVE it the enormous Jackson Pollock-esque painting over our fireplace by my husband. He painted it over 21 years ago and I still find new things when I look at it.
Hazel says
Fab me!
I have an antelope tribal style mask that makes me smile every time I see it.
anca u says
Fab me!!! The boldest and coolest thing in our little home is the half wall that decides the kitchen and dining painted all in chalkboard. It’s awesome. Kids get to play with it daily. We do abcs, math etc. When we have guests we write cool welcoming messages, the menu, date, and make them contribute to the art as well. We take a picture at the end and boom instant memory.
Madison says
Fab me! I have a giant armchair that I recovered in a purple mod fabric. I love it!

Melanie says
FAB ME!
Two Korean wedding ducks… when they’re facing each other, we’re getting along, but when they’re not… we’re not. :-)
Kelsey says
FAB ME!
I’m currently living in student housing, so there aren’t many fun things around me, but I guess my favourite decoration item currently is the Doctor Who print I have hanging. It’s meant to look like a Van Gogh, so unless someone KNOWS where it’s from, people just assume I have great taste in art!
Maryanne says
Haha! Tardis!
Carolyn says
FAB ME!!! I love that our apartment is furnished with lots of hand me downs and thrift store finds. It gives it a great, eclectic feel.
Colleen R says
Fab Me! I would have to say the quirky and colourful item in our house is a paiting of birds flying over bight blue water. It isn’t overly attractive, but a friend’s (talented) mom painted it and they gave it to us as a wedding gift. We felt like we needed to put it somewhere, but didn’t care for it. So we chose to hang it on the wall that only we see when we come down the stairs. That way is was up, but not overly visible. Now though, our little toddler always says “tweet tweet” to the birdies in the morning, so it’s become a favourite part of our day. Funny how life goes!
Melody Strayer says
FAB ME! A mirror ball in our dining room. It’s cool– I promise. ;)
Lindsey says
“FAB ME!” Oooh, Fab is fab.
We’ve got a bright green area rug along with a bunch of color-punch pillows in our living room — they’re all a perfect contrast to our muted (yet still colorful) walls.
Monika says
Fab me! We love our bright red leather chaur
Nicky says
FAB ME!
My favourite item at the moment is a silver dimpled jar that I bought at TK Maxx. It was a bit of a panic buy as I had a gift card to use, and about 10 mins left of my lunch break. I thought it was ok when I bought it, but now I love it. Definitely a grower.
Katie says
Fab Me! I don’t have anything particularly colorful or quirky in my home yet…we’re still working on that.
Abby says
FAB ME!
We have a very colorful painted canvas in our living room that my niece & nephew painted when they were 6 & 4. Anyone who comes to our house thinks its an expensive piece of art that we bought. :)
Cristina W. says
FAB ME!
My favorite quirky home decoration are my hand-made colorful kitchen curtains that I sewed when we first moved in together and I was too poor for a sewing machine! Easy tab-top curtains with bright colors – I can’t bring myself to replace them with nicer ones now!
Monika says
Fab me! We love our res leather chair.
Margie says
FAB ME!
Lots of moth and butterfly photos…embracing my hubby’s scientific passion.
Amy says
Fab Me! I love FAB…Love my bright orange lamp and brightly colored original art pieces that we love to purchase from local artists!
jamie j says
Fab Me!
I have a bit of an elephant collection thanks to the hubs but my favorite is this cute blue beaded one that my sister gave me.
Bethany says
FAB ME!
I have this low profile, high backed olive green velvet chair that I got off of Craigslist. My husband was not too sure about the situation, but now has been known to affectionately refer to it as his chair.
Hillary Jane says
FAB me please !! I think the coolest items and most often complimented have to be our stools. My honey picked them up years ago. They look 50s diner retro, chrome with red leather(ish?) tops, but the silhouette is sleek. Love them.
bethany says
FAB ME!!!!
i love my bright orange kitchen wall with our white beadboard cabinets. it just makes the kitchen more fun!
Laurel C. says
Fab me!!!!
We painted one wall of my son’s room grass green. Love it!
Teri says
FAB ME! The most unique thing in our home is a piece of art that I painted several years ago. I get comments all the time on how much people like it and then when they find out I painted it they are so surprised! I’m beginning to wonder if I should be offended! Haha!
Renske says
FAB ME! I’ve changed the boring grey plastic knobs on our under-the-sink bathroom cabinet to white ceramic bowl like knobs with bright red inside. My boyfriend grumbled about them for about a week and I’m still forbidden to replace the other knobs in the bathroom:( But I think they are fun and happy:)
Alexis peck says
Fab me!!
I have a big bright blue elephant with gold husks on my dinning room table. Hes my unofficial best friend :)
Karin says
Fab me!
Kate says
FAB ME!
Our house is mostly muted natural tones, but I convinced the hubby to paint the kitchen walls a pale yellow. So far, we’ve just hung the paint swatches around the walls…and then left it them were nearly 6 months. But once we make a decision and paint, then I think that will be the most fab place in the house!
Sarah P says
FAB ME! I love my original George Nelson sunburst clock – interited from my grandparents!
Meagan Hubbard says
Fab Me!
I have a very large shotglass collection, which I pick up on my travels.
Lauren says
FAB ME!
A taxidermied crow – it was found in a relative’s attic and given to me to use as a Hallowe’en decoration, but I loved it so much, it stays up year round. Our house is Victorian, so it suits a Gothic vibe!
Amy k says
Fab me!! Mine is the striped wall we painted in the family room!
Emily says
Fab me!
Courtney says
FAB ME I have a collection of maps in my entry way that I love!
Laurie M says
FAB ME!
I have a funky blue accent wall in my bedroom.
Cecily Carroll says
FAB ME! One of the things in my house that I absolutely love is a pillow I recovered with vintage fabric that someone gave me at a yard sale…yellow with grey…really brightens a room.
Kristin says
Fab Me!!!!
Adina says
Fab me!! I have crazy beautiful purple patterned artwork hanging above my bed.
