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.

    FAB ME!!! You guessed it! I found a chair on the side of the road and popped it right into the car. Then I bought some tapestry fabric (3 yds. for $20) of a lovely farm scene (with cows – which I collect!). I always wanted to DIY it myself but after years of procrastinating, I bit the bullet and had an upholsterer do it up!!! Now it sits in my living room and I love it!!

    ok I admit it, I have this weird obsession with dachshunds. And while I do own a cute little dachshund named Ammo, I also can’t help COVERING my house with sausage likenesses. From dachshund banks to vintage ads that have dachshunds in them, I have them in every room. It’s a sickness!

    We have wooden animals; it all started when a weird vendor approached us on the beach while we were in Protugal, and we spotted a giraffe sticking out of his backpack, and obviously immediately purchased it. Now we try to pick up some sort of animal for every new country we visit!

    I majored in fine arts in college and focused in on ceramics. In my last ceramics class, I made four white ceramic animals for one project- giraffe, elephant, rhino and hippo. They turned out amazing, if I do say so myself. Wish I had made more to add to the herd. I think Sherry would approve. :)
