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.

    Fan me! I have two rust-colored couches that I love. They are a pop of color and surprisingly work with a lot of other colors I use for decorating.

    My favourite quirky decoration comes out at Christmas time. It is a deer made out of a red-velour-ish material that stands on our dining room table. My husband thinks he’s creepy….but I think he’s cute!

    FAB ME! We bought a bright red and white rug years ago and I still love it. It’s big and red and white and graphic and chaotic but I absolutely love looking at it years later. Oh, and we also have a ceramic seagull with a big fat belly and a stocking cap. But his name is Gus and I refuse to get rid of him.

    “FAB ME!” The set of colorful dangle-y Indian door hanging animals-with a bell at the end. I had no idea I din’t know what they were called till now. We have a string of camels, elephants and donkeys that coexist very well on the wall.

    I have a wire sculpture purchased in Bisbee, AZ, about 16 years ago. Made of thick-guage wire, it’s the head and shoulders of a figure, and while it hangs on the wall, it’s also a little 3-D. I hear it.

    FAB ME! I have a preserved small alligator head with red marbles for eyes that is on my coffee table. It sounds weird and creepy but it’s not so different from a tortoise shell (just with teeth ;). My college roommate gave it to me as a nod to my Louisiana roots so it’s always been special to me!

    I have this gigantic, yellow cookie jar in my kitchen. It’s almost neon, and has hand painted flowers on it. Anywhere else this would be an atrocity, but it looks so perfectly at home in my white kitchen.
