***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…

Keegan says
FAB ME!
I love my stretched fabric art pieces. They are big, colorful, and cheap!
Lindsay B. says
FAB ME! I have a lollipop with a picture of Pope John Paul II on it from Rome because I thought it was such a crazy souvenir. Very random!
Teeno says
FAB ME! I love all the fun pillows on our sofa!
Emily G. says
“FAB ME!”
There is a painting of an old woman – very Memaw gypsy- that was in the rental hanging on the wall when we moved in two years ago. It’s still on the living room wall. Is the painting quirky, or am I…?
Leah says
Fab me! My favorite quirky thing is an Alice in Wonderland poster of the frumious bandersnatch. I’d love to add some quirky furniture to mix it up in our place.
Mel H. says
FAB ME! I love that we pretty much exclusively use Bonne Maman jars for drinking glasses. And always a conversation starter (“HOW do you have so many jam jars?” “…er, we really, really, really like jam. It’s our jam.”)
julie says
FAB ME! I have elephants in pretty much every room in my house. I guess It’s quirky, but it was never intentional!
Lucy says
Fab me! Our daughter’s entire room. We did it in teal, grey, white, and yellow, and it’s just such a happy big girl room.
Julie F says
Fab Me!
Erin S. says
FAB ME! I love this quirky, little red shelf by our front door. It makes me smile every time I see it.
jana says
“FAB ME!” My basement has a disco ball. It’s so not us but I couldn’t bring myself to take it down when we bought the house. It is so out of place and I love that.
Kim says
FAB ME!! My favorite quirky items in my house are things I’ve made, like the toilet paper roll wall art in my baby girl’s room. You’d never guess it was tp rolls though!
Rachel says
FAB ME! A pair of red dachshund pillows on our couch. :)
Kristin says
FAB ME!
The Vietnamese lanterns hanging in the corner of our living room. The dry climate caused the bamboo to break in places creating interestingly shaped lanterns.
Derk says
FAB ME!
We’ve got a canvas print of a digital ‘oil’ painting of the dog wearing wayfarers. It’s bizarre but amazing.
katryna says
FAB me!!!
I have a two yer old…does that count?

FAB ME!
I framed this hot pink and gold print from Kate Spade. It’s really loud, but I luuuurve it!
Laura says
FAB ME!!! My children are weird, does that count?!?!?!
Mallory says
FAB ME!
I keep a little clay scarab beetle on a side table in my living room as a reminder of my engagement day (my fiancee asked in front of an Egyptian temple at The Met).
shannon says
FAB ME! I love my bright, colorful, wool pendleton blanket thrown over our couch. It’s a hand-me-down from my parents which makes me love it even more!
Carol S. says
FAB ME! I have this fantastic koala painting that my best friend’s husband did for me. I love it!
HeatherL says
Fab me!!
We have way too many monograms around the house :)

Ashley says
FAB ME! I love our patterned arm chairs in our living room.
birdredbird says
FAB ME!
The only quirky, weird, colorful thing in our home is our wacko Boston Terrier, Mortimer. Which is why I need that pillow up there.
Karen J says
FAB ME! … My weird thing is maybe indoor canvas art hanging outside after spraying it down with a can of matte marine varnish. It’s holding up great!!!!
Carrie B. says
Fab me!
My favorite quirky accessory is my collection of thimbles including my thimble shaped vase :)
Carrie says
FAB ME! My fav bit of quirk are our orange ceramic a and z bookends.
Andrea says
FAB ME!
I have a large piece of statement art over our bed, but not much else in the bold/colorful department. But we just moved in a year ago, so now is the perfect time to start!
cmm says
FAB ME!
only really quirky thing around here is the kids!
wilma says
FAB ME! My sons have these knitted dinosaurs, made by their Oma (my mom), which are colourful and look great on their dressers!

FAB ME!
We have two MCM orange lounge chairs in our living room that are my fav. They were my grandmothers! :)

Fab me!

Sarah says
FAB ME!
I have three prints of works by Doretta Groenendyk – so colourful and happy. I love them!

Katie says
FAB ME!!! I just bought my first house, so I don’t have much:)
Kristin Friesen says
Fab me!!!
Our house currently has no quirks inside but it is Easter egg yellow on the outside (yuck!) Working on adding some quirks to the interior!
Campbell says
FAB ME! I have some wonderful textiles from my travels. And a Japanese bihwa (the round bowled guitar that the geishas played).
Kari says
FAB ME!
The quirkiest things in my home are all homemade. They are imperfect and fun pieces of artwork and furniture.
Betsy says
FAB ME! I have a HUGE collection of colorful art done by my two-year-old nephew!
Rachel says
FAB ME!!
The quirkiest item in my house is my little Norwegian Troll that I’ve had since I was a kid. It’s supposed to have protective powers but most of my friends just think its scary. It definitely falls in the “weird but I love it” category.
Sarah says
Fab Me! I have a painting in my breakfast room that someone in my high school class (not me) painted for a project in which we had to depict the death of Julius Caesar. Seems morbid for breakfast, but its really abstract and I just loved it so much that I asked if I could have it. It’s been in all my dorms/apartments/homes ever since.
Kathy says
FAB ME!! (fantastic give-away, thanks for the opportunity)
We have four graphic prints of Transformers with their names in Japanese hanging up in our hallway. My husband was a big Transformers fan growing up and I love the bright colors. Since I’m the decorator of the family, I try to make sure to select items that we’ll both love!
Sarah says
FAB ME!
Ceramic pink pig in our living room!
Kirsten says
FAB ME!!!
