Fab Freebie: A Literal Fab Freebie

***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.

Fab Dot Com Giveaway

  • 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…
  • ***COMMENT ISSUES? If you’re trying to enter but keep getting a “duplicate comment” warning, click here to see how to solve it!

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Fab.

    Does loving my quirky son count? ;) I’m also loving his room and how it’s turning out, since we’re updating it. Lots of his personality is represented in it.

    Our bathroom has a little squirrel theme to it. The shower curtain is from Target and has owls, trees, and squirrels printed on it. We’ve got a large acorn cookie jar sitting on an oak medicine cabinet, and my most favorite is an art print I got on Etsy. It’s a tree with all types of squirrels on it running around doing silly things. It’s a collage in bright colors. It’s definitely my favorite room in the house!

    FAB ME! This may sound weird, but, my fluffly bright orange cat! Everytime I go to take a picture of a room after a DIY project, he inevitably photo bombs it. But I love it, because when I look back at the pictures, I reminds me that our house is our home. And he’s a traveling decor accessory! ;)

    Our house is pretty neutral when it comes to decor, so when it was time to create my now 6 month old son’s nursery, I decided to go bold! It has stenciled walls and bold patterns of greens and blues — it stands out from the rest of the house, and I love it!

    FAB ME! I am the current reining “Queen/King of Gift Giving” in our house because of the gift I gave my husband for Father’s Day two years ago. It is our “quirky” thing. A friend of mine from high school grew up to be a comic book artist in LA – so I had a HUGE painting commissioned for my husband. It’s a comic book cover featuring our family as zombie hunters. It is matted, framed, and prominently hung in our master bedroom. Does anyone one else have a painting of their toddler in a gas mask wielding a machete? No?!?! I’m shocked ;)

    Fab Me please
    there are lots of colorful things in my home, but one of my favorites is a thrifted painting that I picked up 16 years ago. It’s abstract so I ocassionaly change it’s position. Sometimes it looks like a landscape and sometimes it looks like two people in love. There are a lot of quirky things in my home too, my favorite quirky thing would have to be my son Quinn.
