***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…

Lara says
FAB ME! I have a large collection of 1930’s through 1960’s pottery/ceramic planters in the shapes of animals – so cute!

Julie Ratzlaff says

Jessi says
FAB ME!!! My current favorite quirky item is a bar stool I just made over this week. I’ve been looking for a comfy stool with a back to use as seating for a high desk I’m DIY-ing out of two Ikea PS locker cabinets and a bi-fold door I just ripped off my daughter’s closet (the desk itself will probably qualify as favorite quirky item once it’s complete). So when I saw a broken down barstool sitting by the trash in front of – where else? – a bar, I had to have it! I tightened some screws, recovered the seat in with fabric leftover from my curtains, and painted the stool a happy turquoise. Love love love it!
Sarah says
FAB ME! Well no ceramic animals so far (although looks like Fab have some available…) but we do have 2 big old brass lion door knockers that I bought from an old man in Seoul in the old part of town. They’re currently either end of our red brick fireplace which I’m trying to persuade my husband to paint white a la yhl!
Schyler says
FAB ME!
I have a collection of colorful ceramic owls spread throughout my apartment! I’m always curious to see which ones my guests notice.
Pauline says
FAB ME!
I have one freaky porcelain statue of a creepy clown answering a golden phone. And it comes in all colors of the rainbow. Gotta love this guy…
Mary T says
FAB ME!
We love color in our house. Our front room/library is a fantastic orange color. When we were picking it, my husband watched Being John Malkovich and mid-movie he pauses it and summons me to the living room. “This is the color!” He said, pointing to John Malkovich’s hallway filled with books. And so it was! And it looks great 5 years later. :) I also love Mecican folk art/ Day if the Dead art, so we have lots of colorful figures and art of skeletons wearing colorful hats! Thanks for the opportunity, y’all.
Laina says
FAB ME! The most colorful item in our home is some home-made art my husband and I made for our little girl’s bedroom. We painted 4 pieces of canvas bright colors, then splashed more colors on each canvas. She loves them and so do we!
Ashley says
Fab me! We have a crazy huge print in our living room over our couch.
Peggy says
Fab me, please! Orange lamps in my bedroom are the quirkiest thing I can think of.
Paula says
FAB ME! I have been a warm neutral kind of girl – trying desperately to add punches of color to my life. Able to do it for others but paralyzed when it comes to my own space. The color in our house resides in my daughter’s rooms. Black bedspread with multi-colored polka dots in one room and a beautiful Orchid and green color palette in the other – with a bright green ceramic Owl to hoot.
Jennifer Holland says
FAB ME! We have incorporated a pair of wooden shoes in some which way into every room. Except we are not Dutch. Ha!
Shannon aka SuperCraftySister says
FAB ME!
My great grandmother’s girdle. Yup, a girdle! I have it framed and hanging in my craft room. It has also lived in my guest bathroom (quite the conversation piece!) and my laundry room (gotta have something to smile about in there!)
I just know that Granny would have thrown a fit about me hanging her “unmentionables” on the wall… but I also think that secretly she’d love it! (she was a bit quirky too!)

Carly says
FAB me! I’ve been trying to stay away from that site bc I’m trying to save $ for my new house! But 500 buckaroos would send me right back!
Currently I’m loving my antique rocking chair from my grandparents. I reupholstered the cushion in this awesome yellow chevron. The mix of new and old makes me happy!

Heather Cassidy says
FAB ME! horse lamp?? yeah it’s weird.

I have an entire wall of yellowish-gold zig zag fabric in my dining room. It’s crazy bold, but I think it looks awesome against my charcoal grey walls and otherwise completely neutral kitchen/dining room.
Krista D. says
FAB ME!
I have a cheapo white metal pitcher with neon blue flowers printed on it on my nightstand. I love that pop of color first thing in the morning.
