***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!!
The framed, black and white, newsprint pinup girl we found in the walls when we renovated our house. It hangs in the powder room. A little surprise for our guests!
sarajane says
FAB ME! I have an apothecary jar that I fill with unusual things – scrabble tiles, dominoes. Right now it has ceramic balls with letters on them.
Paige says
FAB ME!
We have a big white moose head (from Z Gallery) right above our couch in our living room. We love it. Some guests love it, others hate it. It’s definitely a conversation piece.
Kristyn Gish says
Fab me!! The quirkiest thing in our house some framed deer pictures in our kitchen :)

Joni says
FAB ME! I’ll make sure to get something quirky when I win this gift card ;)
Courtenay says
FAB ME!
It’s a toss-up between my still-growing elephant collection (two hand-carved wood ones and a Colour-Me-Mine teal paisley elephant piggy bank I made on a very fun date), or the set of vintage postcards I bought in Morocco.
Lisa S says
FAB ME! I have this lamp that was given to me many many moons ago that has a white base with a black and white cow print shade. It doesn’t necessarily go with anything else in the house but I love it! I moo-ve (ha!) it around from time to time and it just makes me happy.
Leslie says
FAB ME! I have a fantastic ceramic rhino head over my tv in the living room and an even better turquoise lion standing guard by the front door!
Emily says
FAB ME! I have a cow-shaped cutting board next to a pig cookie jar in my kitchen. Aside from them both being barnyard animals, they do not go together whatsoever. The cutting board is rough and rustic while the cookie jar is sweet and shiny, but I love them both and firmly believe in using what you have and love instead of only using stuff that happens to look stunning.
Sayard says
FAB ME!
I go bold with accessories but nothing too crazy or quirky
Laura J says

FAB ME!
Well, we have an orange and yellow kitchen….But I also love our colorful Native American inspired rug in the family room paired with navy and white stenciled curtains. I love color!
Jennifer S says
FAB ME!
We are still trying to personalize our home. Right now the most unique would have to be the mural painted on our patio walls which actually came with the house. Last year we had to fix up a lot of things, this year is te year to make it ours.
shani mesa says
Fab Me!!! I have a unicorn lamp and a couple of unicorn statues as decor in my crafting space (i.e. Loft). I have recently fallen in love with unicorns.
I myself am a triplet, is that unique enough?

I own a bold yellow chair that sits proudly in my bedroom. I love the pop of color! It’s one of my favorite vintage pieces passed down from my husbands grandma.
Michelle says
FAB ME! I have a couple Picassos hanging up that are pretty quirky!
Sarah Mc says
FAB ME! I recently inherited the family “holiday camel” which the rest of the family thinks is hideous but for some reason he shows up at every holiday gathering. I’m the only one who appreciated his droopy eyes, crazy embroidered fabric and the stamp indicating he is from Bahrain. He’s all mine now and the rest of the family is secretly jealous.I display him proudly in my dining room and he’s quite the conversation starter :)
Becca says
FAB ME!
We have a painting by a local artist of an owl riding a bear. My husband picked it out.

FAB ME!
It’s gotta be the walls in my little guys room!

FAB ME!! I have my husband’s grandmother’s old gold velvet loveseat. Love the character it brings to our living room.
Amanda says
Fab Me!
I think my favorite quirky item now lives in my son’s room – an ORB’d frog playing a guitar. It is a perfect bookend and no matter how much my husband hates it I think we’ll own it forever!
Jenni says
FAB ME!!! I love the curtains I made for our living room in a bold geometric pattern
Whitney says
FAB ME! I love my random artwork…for example, I have a black and white Native American girl in a bright red frame (DIYed the frame!) in my living room and a Moby Dick painting in the dining room. Weird, but it works
Krista says
FAB ME!
The quirkiest item in our home right now is a teal ceramic camel we recently bought from Pier 1. My hubby & I saw it and had to have it for some reason!
Christy says
FAB Me!
The weirdest thing in our home is a huge standing antique white birdcage complete with fake bird.
carrie says
Fab Me! I will buy me a weird-and-quirky with this GC I win ;-)
Shannon says
“FAB ME” weird or quirky…hummmm…I keep a collection of navy and white Potting Shed Santa Claus’ on my mantel year round, even though my decor/color theme changes around them 4 times a year!
JulieKP says
FAB ME! I have a pencil drawing that I did in art school of a woman with her knees pulled up to her chest in my kitchen. Everyone thinks it’s her boobs. Cracks me up every time when people finally realize they’re her knees.
Jill says
“FAB ME!”
I hung two old, red letter O’s I found at an antique shop and painted eye balls on them. If you’re standing at my back door they’re right in front of you. (the only problem is that they’ve been mistaken for toilet seats).
McKinzie says
FAB ME!
I have this picture of two eggs in a carton with faces drawn on them, looking atneachbother. It’s quirky but I love it :)
Katie says
FAB ME! I found an old radio/record player from the 60s at an flea market and didn’t realize it’s German until I got it home. I love it!
hillarybug says
FAB ME! I have a large, colorful, exquisite painting my parents got in India in the early 1970s. It is of the Hindu deity Krishna with a bunch of cows and maidens around a pond on a starry night. It hangs in our entryway, and everyone always comments upon it when they first see it. I love it!
Carol N. says
“FAB ME!”
It isn’t really weird, but I have my grandfather’s banjo hanging in the living room. I wanted one thing to remind me of each of my grandparents, and other than his lunch box (which was long gone), this was what I wanted. Maybe one of these days I’ll take up playing it but for right now, just seeing it in the room helps remind me of him and lots of hours spent listening to him play.
Alison @ AM Quilts says
FAB ME! I have wrapped canvas print of mini schnauzer done in bright saturated colors. It was TJMaxx find but it looks like one of my pups. Love it!
Laura says
FAB ME! I have a garden gnome with the word “Boss” written on it. It’s weird and not very cute, but I found it sitting by a telephone pole on the land that was once my grandparent’s farm and house. Now that both of them are gone that weird, little Boss gnome has even more meaning.
Brittany C says
Fab me! We have a futuristic crazy robot print poster that we bought from Fab. Love it!
Sara says
FAB ME!
I have a blue octopus print in my living room. It’s more sciencey than beachy, and I love it!
gina w. says
FAB ME! I love my huge red bulky framed mirror! :)
Steph says
FAB ME! My grandmother’s hope chest – its bright red!
Amanda says
FAB ME!
I have some drawings I picked up a street fair in France that I framed in bright blue and kelly green. They are my fav by far!
Terri says
FAB ME! I have a blown glass vase that has every color you can imagine & then some in a swirled pattern that makes me smile every time I look at it.
