***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…

I own a huge orange and yellow painting purchased from an artist I went to high school with…while we were still in high school together. I love it as much now as I did then.

My Indian Sari my friend brought back when he went home for a visit that I am using as a headboard type canopy. It is bright and not what people expect to see.
Pat says

my fave is an old sewing machine base I salvaged from the curb. spray painted it tractor red, painted an oak board for the table top, and voila! instant (fab) side table. best part is the foot pedal still works, so my kids love to pump it round and round and round and round …

I love our L’il Davinci art frames that proudly display our 8-year-old daughter’s artwork as if they were a real Davinci!!
Patti says
FAB ME! I have a wacky piece of art I bought on a trip to Cuba. I love buying art when I travel, but I usually try to keep it neutral so I can use it anywhere in my house. But this one is by artist Jose Fuster who does wild, colorful almost surreal art sometimes painted on found objects. Mine is an old record painted bright pink with a drummer and a rooster on it. Weird and wonderful :) You can see some of his art here: http://www.josefuster.com/fuster/pint.asp?anio=2011&t=P
Lori @ Lighten Up! says

Not quite ceramic animals, but I do have a love of pigs and a collection of accessories to match ;)
Chanin says
FAB ME!
We’re in the process of “depersonalizing” so we can sell the house, so it’s bit bland at the moment, but I insisted my 1970’s megnavox staying put; it’s a radio and a makeshift table!
lana says
Fab me!

Misty says
FAB ME!
I have a painting in my bedroom that a friend painted. It is very bold and bright, oranges, greens, hot pink! yet our room is very relaxing… even though we used the artwork as inspiration for colour in the room it all blends and remains calm. Somehow it really works.
denise f in c'ville va says
FAB ME please. My favorite quirky thing is probably an antique AUDOBON print of a RAVEN. It’s just a tiny bit creepy! love it.
Nikki says
“FAB ME!” We love colorful & quirky. Little brightly painted plastic animals roam through the china cabinet with Grandma’s dishes and the soap dispensers at the sinks are repurposed from cool alcohol bottle. Vintage paintings of chickens and a rooster hang in the pantry, a plum colored chandelier in our closet. We like playful and personal and it is a joy for us to continue to add things that please us and express our personalities. Thanks for the giveaway–I hope I win!!
Anna says
Fab me!
We have an alphabet print where the letters are muppet characters (P is miss piggy). It is so quirky and fun and adored both by my husband and daughter. And it makes me smile whenever I see it.

Just looking at them an smiling!
Shelly Abbott says
Fab me!
We have a set of brightly colored rocks -regular-straight-from-nature-rocks-from my oldest daughter (now 20) that we’ve incoeporated into our office decor. They are so awesome and meaningful (especially during those tough adolescent years????).
