***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 bought one of those picture holders with the clip (you know the kind I’m talking about? I think Sherry has one in the office), but it’s purple and says “OMG” in big block lettering. Makes me laugh everytime I see it!
Jasmine says

The weirdest thing in our home right now is the avocado green wall. But it will soon be two blue and green ikat patterned dining chairs.
Karen says
FAB ME! I have three trolls from Gatlinburg, TN (our vacation spot of choice when I was growing up). I’ve been told that they look scary, but they’re really very friendly. Just in case you’re curious: http://www.trolls.com/

I seem to put all the fun/crazy prints for my kids rooms. Must be why I enjoy handing out there. Their bedding are all wonderful, classic and fun.
Safe travels!

Lindsay says
FAB ME!
I just moved in with someone whose taste is rather dull in my opinion so my room is my design haven. My fave thing in there are my 4 Andy Warhol posters that are bright colors (very Warhol-ish..obvi) and they each have a different quote on them that he said. I love them even more because I got them at the MoMA on my first trip to NYC!
Elva says
FAB ME! I have a mug in the shape of a rattle snake from the Rattle Snake Museum in Albuquerque, NM. I use it for pencils, and a tiny New Mexico state flag. Reminds me of home!!!
Gina says
FAB ME!!!!!
My husband’s cousin recently painted an amazing bright red coral on canvas. It’s kind of David Bromstad-ish. I LOVE IT! We hung it in our entryway so it’s the first thing you see when you walk in. I can’t wait for his next painting (please be an octopus…)
Rebecca says
FAB ME!
My favorite thing is our framed penguins with a yellow chevron pattern behind them. <3 chevron and penguins!
Kristen H says

Carolina says
FAB ME!
I have this awesome little print that was gifted to us titled “Shakespeare with bugs”…its exactly how it sounds! Its quirky but… We. Love. It.
Brittany says
Fab Me! I found a super cool Indian style Buddha head at an antiques store that had a whole in the base. My dad painted a beautiful base and dowel for it with turquoise, oranges, white, and grey. He hangs out on a shelf facing the front door to greet our guests as they walk into the main room of our house.
Natasha says
FAB ME!!!!
I have a really cool desk lamp made out of an old rotary style phone. It was a fundraising project that a bunch of boyscouts made about 50 years ago. My grandmother gave it to me because I always used to play with it growing up.
Kristen says
fab me!!! I have these two chairs that are floral and brighter than bright. They verge on the side of ugly, but something about them, I love.
Kimberly says
Fab me! My husband doesn’t like colorful or quirky, so not much to speak of. With $500 though, I could change that!
marianne says
fab me!

“FAB ME”
We just bought a new house that is a total gut job. We are hoping to move into it in six months and when we do I plan to have a very happy bright yellow kitchen island waiting for me. The island is by far my favorite thing so far about planning the house!
Nicole says
Fab me please! I have a display of plates on our dining room wall…I know that my husband would fondly call many of them quirky. They make me so happy!
Thanks for the opportunity!
Alicia S says
FAB ME! I love my yellow vintage robot that compliments my desk perfectly!

FAB ME! I have lots of quirky things in my house: my mom’s autograph dog from the 1950’s, a pink satin Hawaii souvenir pillow with fringe that my grandpa bought for my grandma on his way back from the war … and lots of ceramic animals, too (new AND old)! :)

Allison says
FAB ME!
I love the apple & pear art my mom made for my son’s nursery.
Ness says
Fab me! My entire family is weird, quirky & wonderful! I have a bird’s nest in a shadowbox. We found the nest when we took out a shrub at our front door when we purchased our house. Thanks for the opportunity!
Jes says
FAB ME!
I once made a pillow to match a pea green 50’s arm chair I found at the thrift store. It’s green and brown striped and coordinates with the chair just fine, but it’s not exactly beautiful. My mother thought it came with the chair, so she called it “that little sh!t pillow.” When I told her I made it she quickly changed her mind and said it’s actually quite lovely. Even though I’m almost done reupholstering the pea green chait, I am not going change the “little sh!t pillow,” as my whole family now calls it.
Stephanie Marsh says
FAB ME! We have a retro orange sunshine chair that I got for free…it’s from the 70’s and can be used inside or out.
Charlene says
FAB ME! I love my colorful art prints that are actually printed on thin sheets of wood! So fun!
Megan W says
FAB ME!!! I love my bright turquoise couch!

FAB ME!
We have a bust of a giraffe’s head from Anthropologie. It’s a great conversation starter and makes me smile whenever I walk past.
