***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!
We found a crate of radio tubes (like mini light bulbs) a few years ago at an antique mall for $20. I’m a sucker for things in multiples. We put about half in two large, clear vases. They’re one of my favorite, quirky things.
katelyn says
FAB ME! I have a bright turquoise overdyed rug that I love!
mary says
FAB ME!!!
Anita says
FAB ME!
I have a quirky small zebra print side table…
And am hoping to get a faux ceramic wide deer head for above the bed soon!
Britt says
FAB ME! I have a little ceramic elephant lamp that I’m a bit obsessed with. It lives in my guest room alongside my many pieces of Haitian art that my grandparents collected (and then gave to me) while they were missionaries there. Don’t think there are actual elephants in Haiti… but oh well! ;)
Stephanie says
FAB ME!
I have a great map framed on my wall.
Erin C. says
FAB ME! I have a jar full of old marbles that belonged to my grandpa. I also have his old wooden shoe horns displayed in my living room. They are weird but they remind me of him and I love them.
Jenna says
FAB ME!
I love the pattern mixing I have created in my bedroom.
Kait H says
FAB ME!
I have an old minnow bucket on my coffee table- it’s galvanized steel with bright red writing on it. Reminds me of our lake house that we visited as a child.
Jaime says
FAB ME!
I have a dia de los muertos tile in my kitchen that we brought back from Olvera St. while visiting LA. It’s bright and doesn’t match anything else in the kitchen, but I love it.
Leila says
FAB ME! I love scarves & I have quite a few brightly coloured ones that my husband has brought home from all over the world – China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan etc. Love it! I’m just working on a DIY project to display them so I can see & enjoy them every day.
Kelsey says
FAB ME! Quirky and colorful: the original avocado green stove and oven in our late 60s house. They still work great, so I’m decorating the kitchen around them and am loving them more every day!
Spike says
FAB ME! I have a skull that came out for halloween one year and never left
Megan says
FAB ME!
Do colorful toddler toys strewn across the living room floor count as quirky design?
Bianca says
FAB ME! I have a lot of Day of the Dead items around my house. When people walk into my house-they either love all the items or can’t understand why I have skeletons around the house.
Kristin says
FAB ME, please!!
Meagan Lewis says
FAB ME!!!
I have a green ceramic elephant that is a piggy bank. It’s happy and fun, and I would like to add more eccentric, colorful items to my home.
Amber Smith says
FAB ME!
We have a portrait of our 2 pugs hanging in our living room that our friend did for us for Christmas last year. It let’s everyone entering our home know we are crazy dog people and proud of it :)
Chrissy says
FAB ME!
Kim says
FAB ME! I made curtains out of a tablecloth for our living and dining room windows. You’d never know it, so it’s a secret quirk. :)
Alicia says
FAB ME!
The quirkiest thing in our house is a framed picture of a deer printed on old news paper with “Hello Deer.” written above it. The best part is that my grandma bought it for us!
Jessica Tierney says
FAB ME!
I have a huge print of cherries that reads, “We tend to seek happiness when happiness is actually a choice.” I love the saying. I love that it’s huge and probably belongs in a much larger house. It makes me happy in mine though!
Meggin Holcomb says
FAB ME! Our quirk is the 70’s pinball machine that DH is refurbishing!
Crafty Mariko says
FAB ME!!! I love the little kokeshi doll collection that we have displayed in our entryway!
Kate says
FAB ME!
We have a coral chevron wall in our living room that I never get tired of looking at!
river1 says
FAB ME!!!
I need to add some color to my place.

Kimberly says
FAB ME!! We have a funky remake of the baby arm/driftwood sculpture that they have on the Talking Dead show (a talking show about The Walking Dead). I’m not into Zombies like my fiance is, but I kind of dig the weird piece of artwork.
Mikayla says
FAB ME!!!
Lizzie says
“FAB ME!” In my dining room on a shelf I have a silly green ceramic bust of a dog dressed as a general, we got it from a white elephant exchange but it is originally from Marshall’s. I would have never bought the thing myself, but I love love love the weirdo! (we call him general dog)
Am says
FAB me
I love color& have 2 bright paintings in my living room
L. Cameron says
Fab Me! I have a Star Wars poster with my family’s heads replacing the actors’ heads that we got from Disneyland. My husband’s face instead of Anakins’s face but with Anakin’s curly reddish hair is hilarious. As is my 6 month as Obi Wan Kenobi! We love it :)
Rachel says
FAB ME! I have a silk throw pillow in the living room with a pelican on it. I love it! And it’s definitely a little quirky.
Mina says
FAB ME!
Taryn says
FAB ME! I love my lime green chevron planter on my kitchen table.
Kathy says
“FAB ME!” I am trying to put some color and fun in my house = way too much tan now.
heather says
Fab Me!
My quirky things are a ceramic cow head kitchen hook that was my grandmothers and my bird wallpaper covered stairs…
prue says
FAB ME!
I love the colourful walls in my flat – green in the bathroom, bright orange in one hallway, one dark red accent wall in the other hallway, and above all my pink office! It has pink wall (think of raspberry yoghurt) and lots of accessories in shades of pink and purple, or white, or teal. It’s my kitschy princess room so all the other rooms can be fairly neutral and calm, apart from the pops of colour on the walls.
When people come to visit, they either love or hate the office :-)
Steph says
Fab me! I moved into a rental with one bright orange-red wall and a kitchen full of turquoise counter-tops. They probably would not have been my first choice, but they give the place so much character, and now I love them!
Cathy says
FAB ME!
My family is quirky!
Colleen says
FAB ME! For the sake of frugality, 99% of the art in my apartment is painted by me or my boyfriend. Neither of us is an artist, both of us like bright colors, and we usually run out of steam before creating a finished “masterpiece.” Up on the wall they go anyway to join the quirky art gallery!
April says
FAB ME!
Michelle M says
FAB ME! We have a mirror in our entryway with a colorful frame made out of recycled paper folded to make a weave-like pattern. It’s fun and functional.
Jaime says
FAB ME! We have a collection of boldly colored frames on the wall over our dining table. They add a ton of color!
Kait Fortunato says
Fab Me
I love that my kitchen appliances are all brightly colored! I can leave them on the counter so they double as useful and fun!
Wendy says
FAB ME!
We have a quirky painting of a Boston Terrier – my mom painted it in high school.
Martha says
Fab me! I probably have more quirky things in my house than I should admit, but my favorite are my “glamour dogs” portraits that I have framed in the laundry room.
Michelle @ AM Dolce Vita says
FAB ME! The majority of the color pallete at home is white, blue and grey. The most colorful stuff I have are the rocks and geodes I collect over the years.
Laura says
FAB ME!
We’ve been in a constant state of reno since moving into our new house, and while we’re almost done all the “big” projects, we haven’t put all the finishing touches in yet, so our place is kind of a blank slate! I would loveee an extra excuse to start adding those cute touches!
Kate says
Fab me! I have a very quirky antique school chair painted with Easter Eggs on it given to me by my grandpa.
Kelli Yates says
FAB ME!
My husband is an understated kind of guy, so most of our furniture is pretty neutral. The one area where he doesn’t care if I go crazy is couch pillows, so we have quite a few fun patterns strewn across the furniture!
