***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…

Nicolas says
Fab me! I think right now our favorite little quirky thing in our house is a little elephant trunk coat hanger in our daughter’s room. Came from a local artist and it’s so much fun!
Christina Nichols says
FAB ME! I have a yellow deviled egg holder that I have up on a shelf because it’s the perfect color of yellow for my living room, and looks awesome! People think it’s weird but when I saw it at a garage sale I knew I had to have it.

FAB ME! My favourite items would have to be the bright, patterned boxes that are lined up on my black shelf in my otherwise black/white/grey room! Great pop of colour – and they’re from the dollar store!! Love ’em!
Debbie says
FAB ME!
Becki says

When I was younger I got a giant stuffed Tootsie Pop at a garage sale. It just kind of hung out in the corner of my room for years.

JoAnne says
FAB ME!
I love giraffes and often include them in my decorating.
Charly says
FAB ME!
Lovin’ an old guitar amp that’s used as a side table in the living room.
Lauren says
FAB ME! I’m trying to be more bold and fun with my design choices, so right now the accents are small… like the pink-framed picture of a penguin wearing a bowtie. :)
Jenn C. says
FAB ME!
I found a giant ceramic chicken at the local thrift store for only $3. I bought it and painted it bright orange. We move it through out the house to surprise each other. The other day he was in the shower when I woke up.
Harley says
FAB ME!
I just painted our upstairs hallway bright grape juice purple.
It’s quite loud. but fun.
Raeanne says
FAB ME!
My recently redone bathroom is a quirky purple my husband picked out… still not fully okay with it.
And because we’re both kind of geeky we have a 70’s movie poster esque Portal 2 poster, it’s odd but I love it… I just can’t easily fit it into our otherwise none geeky/quirky decro!
jane says
FAB ME!
we’ve recently purchased some colorful rugs which is way out of character for me, but they are great!
Jenny Stoudt says
FAB ME! When we took out some walls in our nearly 100 year old cape cod, we discovered the nails used were like railroad spikes. So I saved one and it’s hanging out in our dining room.
Erin says
FAB ME!
Oh please, please Fab me.. so I can add to my collection of colourful prints in our house
emily e says
FAB ME!
Joanna says
FAB ME!
I love our old T-square that we have hanging in our entry way. It was was my husband’s grandfather’s – fun and sentimental.
Kaylie says
FAB ME! I would guess that the quirkiest thing in our house would be the monkey shower curtain in one of the guest bathrooms… that wouldn’t necessarily be quirky for a kid’s room, but we have no kids (yet)! We just loved the shower curtain :-)
Danielle says
FAB ME! I have fiestaware dishes in all the bright colors. They make me happy every time I open the cabinet.
krissy says
Fab me! I got my hands on a macrame lampshade my mom wove in the ’70’s and put it on a really old lamp that came from her parents’ house, put together they look so funky and cool!
Kim says
FAB ME! Since my boyfriend moved in, I’ve been trying to make our place a little more boy friendly. So yeah. This is in our living room (the colors I love; the subject matter he loves). Compromise! But yeah, definitely quirky. :) http://www.art.com/products/p14187481612-sa-i6644704/naxart-dude-big-lebowski.htm
E. Schall says
Fab me!
We have a Harmen Liemburg poster (http://www.janenagle.com/ultralight/exhibition/180.jpg) in our stairwell which really livens up our white rental walls.
Rebecca @This Nest is Best says
FAB ME!
Jen says
FAB ME!
I have a collection of colorful ceramic teapots above the cabinets in my kitchen.
karen little says
Fab me! We have some longhorn cattle horns up on the wall of our Mancave because my husband is a Texan! Funny thing though is that I bought them in this little funky shop in the hills of West Virginia years ago. Strange…..
Erin says
Fab me! I’ve recently fallen in love again with two big sugar pine cones I have hanging over a doorway. I found them on a camping trip when I first moved to the West Coast.
Rachael says
Fab me! I suppose it’s not too off-the-wall but we finally repainted our upstairs bathroom from ugly grey and bright red to dark brown with crisp white trim, and I LOVE it!
Katie says
FAB ME!
I have a white dreamcatcher over my bed. I really wanted something different over it, and got this image in my head of a pretty all white one. Despite just about zero inspiration action from google and pinterest and a husband who hated the idea, I made my own (while husband was not home :)) and LOVE it. A lot of people probably find dreamcatchers quirky, but I think it’s the best.
LeeAnn says
FAB ME! I have a statue of a dancing lady that no one notices but me, and it makes me smile whenever I see it:)
Richard says
Fab me!! I have so many quirky things, but my favorite is a stuffed Lady Ambrose bird, her name is of course, Lady Ambrose.
