***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! I have a large collection (over 20) of Nutcrackers I set out for Christmas each year. My mom & grandmother started giving me ome each every year when I took ballet, and have never stopped. Some people think it’s a weird collection, but I love it!
I also have a large state of Texas map a cut out and hung on cork in our game room. I love to be able to look and see how far apart things our in our great state!
Courtenay Austin says
FAB ME!
One of my favourite colours in my house would have to be the cranberry walls in my daughter’s room! I took a risk on a dark colour and we LOVE it!
Carolyn says
FAB ME,
Quirky little painting of an eye and egg
Ruth P. says
FAB ME!
One of my favorite quirky items in my house is a wire chicken potted plant holder. I love it!
Angela says
Fab me! I have some brightly colored street maps from each of the cities we’ve lived in on our living room wall.
Katie S says
FAB ME!
We painted the edges (just the outside edge) of our doors in different neon colors, some are citron yellow and others are coral. It’s such a fun, unexpected pop of color whenever you open a door. :)
amy says
FAB ME! I’m a huge fan of this funky chaise lounger we have in our sitting room. It’s a fantastic conversation starter. No one ever sits on it, but they just stare at it and say, “what a cool piece! Does it have a story?!” Yeah, it looks THAT cool.
Nicole B. says
FAB ME!!!
Hmmmm. Our most quirky item is our apartment itself. We live in a vintage high rise on Chicago’s lakeshore that was built to house actors for a nearby (now not here!) movie studio.
Emily L says
FAB me! I love my green vintage 60s typewriter.
Fran says
FAB ME! I have a 1970s mushroom stool that is covered in olive-green shag carpet-like material. My mother still has the matching sister stool – that comes in a lovely mustard yellow. My parents bought them at a garage sale 30+ years ago and the the bottom of my stool still says “250 each” which I am really hoping was $2.50.
Haley says
FAB ME! I have a toolbox I made as a kid to hold the little things that collect on top of my dresser.
Sarah K. says
Fab Me! I have a bright abstract print in my bedroom, a funky piece to mix it up amongst my other traditional decor!
Angela C says
FAB ME!
My trio of portraits of animals wearing suits (coincidentally from fab.com) are my favorite quirky accent
Kate says
“FAB ME!” They aren’t in our house just yet… but one fun, bright and quirky thing in our house will be the legs to our kitchen island that my husband and I are currently designing and building. We will installed them in a few weeks when our renovation is at it’s end, but how great will rich, bright YELLOW farmhouse legs be in a classic white and neutral kitchen with shades of blue scattered throughout?!
Emily says
FAB ME!
Probably the weirdest thing I have are 8 by 10 prints of beautiful crystal sculptures of different viruses (SARS, HIV and the influenza virus). The sculptures are crystal, so intricate and beautiful, and no one is ever sure of what they are – sounds weird but fits with my epidemiology background.
Lindsey says
FAB ME!
My house is seriously lacking in the “fun” department right now so this giveaway would be awrsome!
Mariya says
FAB ME! I love that most art in our home is not standard framed prints. It’s either oil paintings that my mom did years ago, our enlarged photographs, or toddler art. It’s all us!
Andres says
FAB ME!
Hillary the colourful ceramic pig.
Callie says
Fab me!
I have dogs and horses all over the place. Love them.
Angela P says
FAB ME! I just got some sunny yellow and white bedding for our master with some colorful ikat pillows that I am loving…it instantly cheers up the room!
Jennie says
FAB ME! Our bedroom is painted a bright avocado green, and I love it!
Helen says
FAB ME! We have a green chair in our living room that I just love!
Brittany says
FAB ME!
Leigh says
FAB ME! I have some excellent colourful monster paintings around my house. Thanks to two small artists
Katy says
Fab me!
I love making throw pillow covers, so we have dozens of random colors and patterns all over the place.
Dayna says
Fab Me!
I love my naked silhouette women coat rack. I got her for my first college apartment and just can’t seem to part with her!
Jenny M says
FAB ME!
We have a serious love for boston terrier prints and ceramic animals and would LOVE to be able to use this to decorate our new nursery in a fun and quirky way!
Nicole L says
Fab Me!
I have to say that my houses lack in quirkiness…so FAB mE! and I’ll be able to add some quirkiness in my life!
Dana says
FAB ME!
I have a butterfly tile my little sister (4 at the time) made me out of broken pottery. She snuck it into my bag when I left for college. The colors are bright and beautiful and it reminds me totally of her!
romeoandjewels says
Fab me!
Love our garage sale orange Eames chairs that we sanded down and refinished with Penetrol! :)
Kim S says
FAB ME! I painted the two side tables in our living room a happy shade of yellow, and I love them. But probably the quirkiest home decor item currently in my house is the custom drawn “art” from iwanttodrawacatforyou.com (as seen on Shark Tank) that my husband ordered for my birthday. If you haven’t heard about it, basically you write in your order (for mine, my husband wrote “A girl reading in the park with her dog next to her”) and this guy doodles out your order with the main character(s) as cats and sends the original drawing out to you through the mail. It’s completely hilarious and makes me smile whenever I look at it.
Meghan says
Fab me!
I’ve been using the Nickelodeon alarm clock I got for my tenth birthday for almost 15 years now. I can’t bear to get rid of it!
Ellen says
FAB ME!
I have a bright red couch that I love.
Rachael says
Fab Me! The quirkiest thing we own is probably a watercolor and ink illustration a friend did per our son’s request of a bunny dressed up as a Storm Trooper.
Lindsay says
FAB ME!
I have a ceramic dog that I painted with my aunt 20 years ago. My parents recently gave it back to me when they remodeled.
Tamrah Ryan says
FAB ME!
We have a series of 5 portraits, showing the step by step process of making a cake, hanging in our kitchen (one of each member in our family). The portraits are messy, bold, and fun and really shows everyone’s personalities. Love them!
Kelli says
FAB ME!!! :)
Alana says
FAB ME! I painted my dresser bright yellow. I completely love it, but I’m not too sure anyone else does!
Sew View says
Fab me. I love my wooden teddy bear.
Lindi says
Fab me!
We have some stripey yellow curtains in our craft room that our really lovely! And bright blue chairs in our kitchen.
jen says
Fab me!
My green chandelier and aqua ceiling.
Kelley says
FAB ME! The most colorful thing in our house is our 3 year old son’s artwork. It’s everywhere! :)
Lauren says
FAB ME!
Karen Lee says
FAB ME!
We have entirely too many couch pillows.
I really can’t resist, I always find more it like!
Thanks for the chance!
Karen
Angela says
FAB ME ! I love ceramic white animals. So far I have a sparrow, an elephant, and a frenchie piggy bank

FAB Me. My bright blue walls.

FAB ME! Something weird….my vintage chartreuse horse head vase that I picked up at a local auction for $5. Currently with daffodils in it!
Alyssa says
Fab me!
I have a throw on our couch that my mom sewed out of thrifted sweaters. Each sweater was pretty ugly on its own, but they work together wonderfully!
CarrieK says
FAB ME!
I don’t have nearly enough quirky items in my home!
