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.

    I would say the quirkiest thing about my house is that I have over 50 elephants in various forms. They are my favorite animal so I love using them to decorate, but honestly it is more due to the fact that I get a lot of elephant things for gifts. It includes a trash can, teapot, 2 sets of salt and pepper shakers, a bulletin board, a shower curtain, and lots of figurines.

    Fab me! Our dining room is bright green. It gets a lot of “whoa.” reactions when people first see it! Also, we have a lot of dachshund-related items lying about–a pillow, bookends, artwork, salt and pepper shakers, figurines, and the 9-pound real-life weenie dog who has tried eating each one of these things at one time or another.

    I have a vivid geometric painting I created in college that I simply can’t get tired of. It’s currently hanging in my home office.

    Looking at some of the art on the Fab site, the style of the painting totally fits in with their aesthetic too!

    Fab me! Something quirky in our house? Mmm…. I thrift pretty much everything so it’s all a little different which I love but we have a pretty big fish tank right in our living room and it’s one of the first things you see. Our fish are super funny and entertaining so people always end up just sitting and watching them so I guess that’s a little weird!

    I have a painting of a man named Fred. He’s a little cartoonish and in front of him is a plate with a large chicken leg on it. And he’s very fat and has an eye patch. It sounds even weirder when I write it down and my husband HATES it.

    We had a small wedding and opted for an open house of sorts afterwards to celebrate. My husband and I got two canvases and left them out with paint for our guests to decorate at the party. They turned out great. I LOVE THEM! We hung them above our guest bed so that those we love can see their own art when they come to stay!
