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.

    My master closet is a reach in. I took off the doors last year and just did a big stencil on the back wall. It is dramatic and beautiful and amazing!

    fab me! our liquor stock is pretty quirky. we only buy it for “novelty” drinks, so we have things like whipped cream vodka, peppermint schnapps, orange liqueur, etc. nothing that you’d want on its own, haha.

    Our entire mantle is covered in driftwood we’ve found walking down California beaches. I can move it around to create different shapes and angles. It’s like a growing sculpture that was created for zero dollars.

    One of my favorite things is this old piece of pressed wood that my brother pulled out of the trash and used as a painting palette. Now it’s covered in gobs of random colors that mix and bleed with each other. I love the randomness of it.

    I have a string of fairy lights with a piece of recycled coloured glass over each one. I bought them in Seattle – as soon as I saw them I knew I wanted them in my home. I’m British and live in the UK, so it’s a cool reminder of one of my fun trips to the US!

    Has been great fun to have a few international freebie competitions to enter recently – thank you! x

    Our rumpus room sports two awesome features! 1) it’s painted a matte black and 2) we have an amazing set of Star Trek Commemorative collectors plates (ya know, the granny style gold plated edges sort of plates?!). It’s the perfect place to cozy up and watch Syfy movies.

    We have an art print of the side view of a naked lady in our living room. Now that we have a growing/curious child, I’m not sure that it is appropriate to have it hanging so prominently. Either way, I still love it!
