***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!
My husband I have a vintage floor lamp that is bright yellow. It definitely adds some color to our reading nook!
Mindy says
FAB ME!
The quirkiest item in my home is a huge 15″ tall cupcake plush. I actually got it from Fab!
Nancy says
FAB ME! The quirkiest stuff we have in our house is whatever we bring back from our travels. We just buy whatever we think reminds us of our time there. So that includes things like a flattened beer bottle clock and pictures of a pig and rooster made of twirled paper. Randomness abounds!
Dayl says
FAB ME
I think one of our special pieces would be the old man’s face & long flowy beard that is carved out of a 10″ long piece of driftwood. The piece came with my husband, and we have enjoyed our “old man” in every living room we have lived in together.
Sharon says
Fab me! My two year olds bright yellow high chair. :)
Jessica K says
Fab me! I just moved into my first place so I haven’t had time to acquire anything quirky for my place yet!
Meg @ Revamp Homegoods says
FAB ME! We have lots of quirky stuff around the house, but my favorite is our shelf rooster whose legs dangle off the side of our open shelving.
Jenny says
FAB ME!
The most colorful thing in my apartment is the quilt on my bed that my mom made for me! It is composed of funky patterns that have bright greens, blues, pinks, purples, and yellows in them. I absolutely LOVE it!
Amber says
Fab me! The most weird and quirky thing in my home is my dog, lol.
Amanda says
FAB ME!
When I was pregnant I picked out neon green floral letters that spell out my daughter’s name. They reside in her nursery and I still smile every time I see them.
Danielle says
FAB ME! I painted my dining room two very vibrant colors, Turquoise and Lime green. I think it’s amazing, but some people would disagree! But I don’t care…It’s my home and I love it!
Chris says
FAB ME! The only quirky thing I can think of is a set of pictures of mallard ducks with a Bible verse. In the area I grew up in, instead of flowers, people send these types of pictures to funeral homes (most are not mallard ducks, thankfully).
Heather C says
Fab Me!
Probably the “quirkiest” thing in my house is a framed TARDIS print (nerd alert) but I like to pretend that it’s subtly classy!
Amy Mason says
fab me! I may have an unhealthy addiction to my pug, and therefore have a ton of pug stuff around the house…
Angela says
FAB ME!!
My kitchen is bright teal and I am in love :)
Newton says
FAB ME!
A fun chair that I reupholstered!
Stefani says
FAB ME!

Fab me! (I just joined last week, such a great site). My bold item is the awesome orange trellis window shades in our living room, so cheerful!)
Kelly S says
FAB ME!!
The weirdest thing I have in a little sculpture I made in college. It’s in our office. It looks like a little homemade Buddha. My husband thinks its creepy–but I love the character of it!
Melissa says
FAB ME!
I love making homemade art and making it personal with an initial, or a name, or object I love.
Danielle says
FAB ME! we have a 1970’s diner booth in our breezeway that we inherited with the home but have yet to get rid of. weird is an understatement
Stephanie says
FAB ME!
We have this fabulous gold metallic skull that I bought from West Elm. We nicknamed him Franky and he’s always a conversation starter.
Valerie says
FAB ME! My favorite pop of fun color is a patchwork quilt made from designs on old tshirts :)
Lisa P. says
FAB ME!
I think the quirkiest thing I have are husband and wife squirrel portraits hanging in my living room by Ryan Berkley at Berkely Illustration. I love his animal portraits.
Rosie says
FAB ME!!!
I love my orange and white zebra print rug.
Debbie says
FAB ME! I love me peachy/orangy/brown super comfy high quality Laz-Boy sofa. I’ve had it for 7 years and everyone says how comfy and nice it is, but is definitely not your average tan or white sofa.
Jessica says
“FAB ME!”
Currently my house is pretty neutral as I try to figure out my style in my first home!
Lauren says
FAB ME!
I love the pink, green and grey curtains we got for our bedroom! The punch of color is great and the grey makes it hubby friendly.
Tyhesha Elmore says
“FAB ME”! I love my lime green kitchen island.
HeidiG. says
FAB ME!
What if I don’t have anything with crazy color in our house? We need some color!!!!!!!!
Beth says
FAB ME!!
I love the hot pink heart pillow for the couch and the tuscan yellow walls of the sunroom!
Lena says
Fab me! The best and brightest thing in my house is my beautiful, red accent wall. It’s a really intense color so it has major impact in a small space without feeling overpowering. Definitely takes our house up a notch!
Kathryn Jones says
FAB ME!
I have an old 3-D brass owl that is framed with an orange background…it was my husband’s mothers and I love it!
Keri says
FAB ME!
My cats are weird and quirky and I love them to pieces! Also, our walls are painted funky colours throughout the house which makes me smile.
Amanda says
FAB ME!!
I have a lot of giraffes…like around 50…spread throughout my house. My visitors have a game where they try to spot all the giraffes they can without moving their heads.
Alicia P. says
FAB ME!
We found this great piece of artwork for our kitchen that is bold and makes us happy so we’ve chosen to kind of design our color scheme around it. It’s meant avocado green for the walls and some other neat choices that I’m not sure we would’ve make otherwise. Such a great prize this week! Thanks for sharing!
Melissa says
FAB ME!
I snagged my great-grandparents’ velour waterwheel-patterned rocking recliner. The only words that can describe it are “brown” and “orange.” Someday I’ll get the guts to recover it.
jules says
FAB ME!!! I live in my grandparents house. The kitchen walls have a faux tile that is turquoise. My parents actually own the house and I’m only living there temperarily so I can’t do anything with it but I’ve kinda grown to love it and decorated around it.
Meghan says
FAB Me! our Dragonfly by Benjamin Moore-painted wall, (inspired by your dining room bookshelves) with white trim and accents of orange, mustard and barn boards.
Kara says
Fab Me! My husband brought back this giant shell from the Solomon Islands.At first I didn’t know what to do with it but I discovered the other day that he hides spare change in it and apparently Christmas money (shhh shopping spree for me!)
Sarah says
Fab Me!
Pillows.. my quirkiness comes in waves of colorful pillows.
Lynn @ Our Useful Hands says
FAB ME!
I love our red feels like a hug when you sit down couch. It’s been in the family for around 6 years. It’s time for an upgrade. Thanks for the giveaway yo!
My best, Lynn
*this is the one, I can feel it…
Cassidy says
FAB ME!
I would love anything for my walls-we have lived in our house for FOUR years now and still don’t have a single thing hung on a wall. I just can’t decide what would look good (and a limited budget).
Rachel says
FAB ME! We have a bright green rug that I bought for my daughter’s room. I love it but didn’t end up using it so now it’s in our guest room for a pop of color!
Kathleen says
FAB ME! I have a glorious chaise lounge with the most ridiculous fabric on it. It was a custom piece that someone returned to the store – and I grabbed it!
Meredith says
FAB ME!
We have a large (about 4 ft. x 4 ft.) painting of a native american on a BOLD yellow background by a friend of ours in our living room. It is beyond a statement piece and we love it!
Jolene says
I have a large, brightly colored painting of several Haitian people with huge multi colored fruits sitting together. It was left in the laundry room of a rental house I moved into years ago and I couldn’t bear to leave it behind when I left. I knew that the landlords would come in and pitch it. (It had only been left because I asked them to leave anything after cleaning)
Kristen says
FAB ME!
Bright red appliances! Nothing says cheery, fun kitchen like the color red :)
cayce wegman says
FAB ME!!! I love my mix of light blue mason jars in our kitchen!
Emma says
FAB ME!
I have my collection of scrapbooks that I made with my grandmother from trips, summer camp, and school!
