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.

    We are in serious need of some quirky items in our house. We’ve got one of those lotus-flower IKEA lights. Does that count? :)

    I have this wind up tin robot toy that is my favourite item in our living room. I like to think hat he sits on the shelf and watches over everything.

    “FAB ME!” We have a red leather deer head hanging over our brick fireplace which matches our red leather sofa right across the room from it. Loved it the minute I saw it.

    FAB ME! One quirky thing in our house are these wooden ducks that my sister brought back from Korea. They are “traditional wedding ducks” and there’s a story that came with the ducks that explains that the lady duck’s mouth is tied closed with a ribbon to keep her from nagging the husband duck. Offensive, yet kinda funny.

    We have a giraffe carving that we got on our first trip to Jamaica three years ago. Giraffes are my favorite and I just love it. I also have a (slight) obsession with the color orange, and one of the lamps in our living room (a Home Goods find!) has an orange shade. And it casts a warm orange hue when the light’s turned on. I likey.

    I moved to Nashville in 2009, and have begun collecting weird/funky local art. I have three pieces so far, but my favorite is a funny comic/print of a monster by Pope Saint Victor (it’s this one: http://society6.com/PopeSaintVictor/I-Think-I-Ate-Your-boat_Print). He has a FABulous (ha) sense of humor and I love ALL of his artwork!

    FAB ME!! I love our gum ball machine filled with faux limes. With two small children, it needed to be filled with something that couldn’t actually be dispensed (and choked on). Plus, the limes are a great pop of color alongside the bright red of the gum ball machine.

    We have these wacky rooster pillows that my I had purchased to cover. After a few weeks of having them on the couch to see if I liked the size or not, my fiance commented how much he liked the print. So we embraced the country charm and they found a place in our home unchanged!

    FAB ME! We have some big, bold floral pillow covers (from Fab, actually!) that we put out on our neutral sectional in the summer, and they make the whole house feel summery and cheery. (In the fall and winter we go for some neutral-on-neutral faux fur action.)
