***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! We have a small bright metal chicken like Beyonce. It sits on top of the fridge and makes our kitchen extra awesome.
nina says
FAB ME!
Uh…honestly the first thing I thought of was my hair. I’m a natural ginger :)
kate says
Fab me! I definitely do have several dozen ceramic animals, but I think the quirkiest thing is my set of deer antlers that sheer laziness has turned into a necklace and belt organizer.
Trish says
Fab me! My original art work from many friends.
Hannah says
Fab me!!
I have purple velvet armchair in my reading nook that is my favorite piece of furniture in my house, it adds color and makes me happy every time I look at it!
Andrea A says
FAB ME!
For our family, it’s our bright Magenta wall. We got a ton of comments on it from the workers who were building our home. When we invited them to the open house, they were very happy to see that the other decoration around the home toned it down quite a bit. There were more than one wives who were coveting it by the end of the night.

Emily says
I have a decent number of bright colors in my home, but my favorite bright object is a vintage pyrex mixing bowl. I don’t recall this, but my husband claims that I once told him we’d get divorced if he broke it.
Amber says
FAB ME!!
I love my bright, graphic-patterned pillow covers in the living room I bought on etsy. My first venture into bold patterns!

I love the colors of the orchids in my bedroom! Such a pretty pop of color!
Lauren says
Fab me!!!!
We have picked up a number of eyebrow-raising pieces of art in the last few years that include a huge wooden fork, a goat, a Polish movie poster…We love it, but we get some strange looks for our choices!
Tracey says
Fab me! I love all of our family artwork — lots of kids art framed and my dad’s totally gorgeous photographs. Who knew a computer programmer/physics major had such an artsy eye?!
Ps love the title :)
Ashley says
FAB ME!
We were given a classic wooden high chair that we made quirky with acid green spray paint. Makes a great spot for our monthly photos!
Lindsay P says
FAB ME!
I have an awesomely quirky lime green, tufted back, velvet easy chair; of which I’m probably the 3rd hand-me-down recipient. I love it so much and have dragged it from move to move. After years of getting ‘she’s gotta be nuts’ back and forth glances from friends and family: it has finally become fashionable and is receiving all the positive looks and comments it deserves. :)
Lee says
Fab me! I like the picture frame out made out of our old barn’s siding.
Lindsay-Jean says
FAB ME! We have a big wooden fish that hangs from the ceiling at the end of a bamboo pole….
Stefanie says
Fab ME!! I have a collection of Tiki Mugs that are pretty much a rainbow of colors and fantastically tacky & fab!
Ashleigh says
FAB ME!!!!
The quirkiest thing in our houseboy the moment is a hand me down play kitchen straight out of the eighties. It’s full of Fisherprice play food, a whistling kettle, fry pan that sizzles, and vintage stand mixer. Hours of entertainment!
Jessica C says
Fab me!!
Lemuific says
Fab me. I have a giant wooden skull in my living room and I love it! It is definitely a topic starter.
wendy says
FAB ME! I have a great shadow boxy thing I got several years ago that has all the different classic breakfast cereals mounted in it with the dates they were released. It is very amusing, and everyone always ends up standing around my picture discussing the cereals.
Chatelaine says
FAB ME!
we aren’t bold enough for quirky so i’m really trying now. although we did paint our office bright green.
Kelly says
Fab Me! I love that site too!
One of the “louder” pieces we have hanging in our house is a piece of street art we bought in New Orleans. It is bright red with a sax and trumpet player in black playing in front of a white building.
Hope says
Fab Me!
I have a fun yellow and grey print of a whale above our kitchen table!
Mary says
Fab me! I have a metal giraffe by the front door.
Lindsay Templeton says
FAB ME! The quirkiest things in my house usually have to do with squirrels! We have porcelain squirrels, minature squirrels, and framed squirrels scattered throughout our home- what can I say… We love a good squirrel!
Janette@The2Seasons says
FAB Me. The weird thing we have is a pennyfarthing that was built in the 1800’s. We treat it like a sculpture, and everyone loves it. We are world-wide cyclists.
Isabelle says
Fab me!
I really love a fake stuffed moose head mounted on the wall of my son’s bedroom
brenda says
FAB ME!
I have a painting of my daughter that was given to me that is so fun and has such bright colors. I always tell my husband that if our house caught fire (knock on wood) after getting the kids, the dog and the fish, I would grab that painting. :)
Ashley P. says
Fab me!
Not much too quirky in my house, pretty plan, but I do love a rocking chair for my son that I just spray painted yellow!

FAB ME!
a pair of hot pink shoes from Morocco: too small to wear, but too beautiful not to display

FAB ME! I have a beautiful canvas flower painting hanging above my bed with vibrant colors. Its the focal part of my bedroom and I love it!

Michelle says
Fab me!
I love my vintage wood arm chair with crushed green velvet upholstery.
Ginger says
Fab Me! I have a quirky ceramic jar with a lid that is made to look like a coffee pot that has arms drinking a cup of coffee and and a ceramic jar made to look like a refrigerator with arms drinking a coke!
Lissa says
FAB ME!
I love my wall of happy plants that I’ve managed to not kill!
Melody Wong says
FAB ME!

FAB ME! Our office is painted the same color as your guest bedroom!

FAB ME!! My favorite quirky thing in our home is the United States shaped cutting board that we painted a bright teal and put a small pink heart on the area of Maryland (where we are both from!). It makes me smile every time I look at it!

Lindsey says
FAB ME! We just moved into our new home and its still so blah..we’ve got to do something about that. Nothing’s really quirky about anything in our house. Need to work on that. Thanks for the giveaway!
