***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 have a pillow shaped like a cat’s face, complete with embroidered whiskers and button eyes.
Taylor says
FAB ME! I have a fabulous large painting of a man sleeping in a hammock on a screened in porch. It hung in my aunt’s house for year when I was growing up and when my husband and I got married she let me have it. I LOVE it! Quirky and fun…
pri says
FAB ME!
I cannot think of any one quirky thing at home right now.
Jessica R. says
FAB ME!…I have a wall of plates over my kitchen table! It’s a little quirky, especially since all of the plates are from the Goodwill! I love it though! :)
Sarah Snell says
Fab me!
We have a giant bold area rug in our living room. My husband picked it out but we ended up loving it. It has big red and orange and maroon swirls. It was a great addition to the room and softens up the tile for the babies!!
Victoria says
FAB ME!
I’m really proud of our growing art collection – it’s a mix of etsy finds, local artists (and friends), and meaningful diys, many of which were YHL-inspired!
Colleen C. says
FAB ME!…I have a few too many owls in my house, but I love them!
Kat says
Fab me! My favorite colorful thing in our home is a huge framed fleur de Lis pAinting we got from a garage sale for $20!
Sarah Portugal says
Fab Me. Love my orange wooden sign that reads “Live, Love, Laugh and be Happy.” It hangs above my desk in the dining room.
Danielle M. says
FAB ME!!
Our home is currently mid-construction, so I am just waiting until I can finally decorate and add many pops of bold colors!!
Terri says
FAB ME! I like pops of colour, particularly orange and yellow, and have a few things throughout our house.
jessica says
FAB ME! I have a quirky poster that I purchased from Fab for the bar in our basement. It is a portayal of Baltimore that looks like legos. It has Baltimore Street, Domino Sugar, Natty Boh, just about all the cool things in Balitmore!
Kelley Y says
“FAB ME!” My ocher living room chair is fabulous!
Allyson says
FAB ME! Thank you!
Richelle says
Fab Me! My aunt got me an old bowling trophy when she found out I joined a bowling league and now it sits on a shelf in my living room – love it.

“FAB ME!” – My ceramic horse my Mom gave me when I was a kid. It’s on my mantle in the family room.
Kate says
FAB ME!
I have a rather large turquoise crocheted fish in my living room. Love him.
Mattie R says
FAB ME! We have lots of great colorful items, including spray painted vintage lamps, orange Herman miller chairs, and oriental rugs.
AwesomeBarnes says
FAB ME!
Because I am from New Jersey and live in the South. Or because we have a framed picture of Ted Turner in a period confederate uniform. My husband spotted it in Gettysburg in a photography shop, purchased it, brought it to his frame shop and had it framed like a regal family heirloom. It is now known as Uncle Ted. We also have a velvet Elvis in our kitchen. So we love the quirk, gotta have the quirk.
Esme says
FAB ME! Our home is pretty sparse at the moment, but I can’t wait to add fun and quirky items to give it more personality. :)
Maria says
Fab me!
One quirky thing in our house is this red felty abstract deer head – the antlers serve as coat hangers. My husband hates it, but I think its awesome!
Jenalee Latham says
FAB ME!
My favorite items in my house are my ceramic giraffe and my rainbow stain glass lantern, in my livingroom
Ali says
FAB ME!
I have a giant green, recycled bottle vase that my boyfriend got me two Christmases ago. I absolutely love it, even though it doesn’t necessarily match the rest of my student cheepo decor. One day though, I will be building a room around that vase!
Jessica says
FAB ME!
I have a painting my sister made for me that is mostly red and orange of a sailboat at sunset… it is a nice pop of color!
Wendy says
Fab me please!
Although my daughter’s room is a color explosion (beware letting Clara help decorate), while furnishing our dining room, I noticed it was turning out a little too matchy, gray, black, and blaaahhhhh. So, I got a couple of “antique” side tables off craigslist for either side of a settee and spray painted them turqoise. The mister thinks they’re too bright, but they are awesome. And the chartreuse pillow I stitched up for the settee in between is pretty great too.
Stacy says
FAB ME! I’m sad to say there is nothing quirky or interesting in our home right now. We are in a temporary apartment due to a job relocation and everything is as vanilla as it can get, so, seriously, Fab Me! We need it!
Patty Mai says
Fab me! I need something quirky!
Lisa says
FAB ME! I have a patchwork quilt my grandma made out of old leisure suits and printed dresses, displayed prominently on our couch of course.
Anna-Lisa says
Fab me!
Probably the most quirky thing that everybody notices at my house is my giant collection of elephants. Ceramic, metal, stone, plastic… I just like elephants.
Heather MacPherson says
Fab me! My fave is my bold printed rugs all over my main floor.
Kate says
FAB ME! I have this giant bright canvas that my cousin painted, and I think it’s gorgeous but most of my friends say it’s creepy. It’s from a family portrait, and she blacked out half of her mother’s face…and I guess when I say that out loud it is a little weird.
Teresa says
FAB me! I love my photograph of the Cape Cod Canal at sunset taken by an artist buddy. We ride over the canal every summer on a cancer charity ride and it reminds me to dream BIG.
Jessica F. says
Fab me! I love the colorful crib set I made for my baby girl. It makes me want to sleep in it ;)
katie b. says
FAB ME! I definitely need to work on my boldness in decorating, but I did just get some stand-out curtains for our bedroom that I love!
Kristen says
FAB ME!
I have a 3D art piece that used to belong to my grandparents. It’s a large rectangular fiberglass thing that is best described as pointy — it looks like a bunch of triangular mountains coming off the wall. When I inherited it, it was gold and black but I ended up painting it all white.
Teresa says
FAB ME! I’m trying to burst out of our more traditional style with modern bold patterns and colors!
Samantha P. says
FAB ME!! I have a bright hot pink chair in my room.
Tara Geissinger says
FAB ME!!
I love Fab too. :) I think the most unusual thing in our house right now are probably the funky chairs we just brought back from IKEA.
Alicia Behrends says
FAB ME! I have a large handmade wine cork giraffe, show posters and a large fun print of the MN Twins Stadium.
Becky says
FAB ME! Ah the embarrassment of admitting that I have a boring soft palette. Does it count that I have a brass chandy that I plan to paint raspberry and hang in my foyer? :)
Tiffany says
Fab me! I love Fab stuff…
Kathryn says
Fab me!
I live in a winterized hand built hunt cabin. The whole thing’s a bit too quirky.
Elaina says
FAB ME!!
I have a balloon turtle on a bookshelf that some guy made for me while out at dinner with some friends. That isn’t normal, right? :)
Tiffanee says
Fab me! I love the gossip bench in my foyer.
Jeanette says
FAB ME! I love one of my newest additions to the house – a felted yellow owl that hangs from the knob of my barristers bookcase. I think he was meant for the xmas tree, but he’s staying out all year, at least for now!
Kristin says
Fab me!!
I love our pops of lime green in our guest bedroom!
Candace Wyant says
“FAB ME!” and Face pottery bowl my mom made.
