***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’d say mine would be my current obsession with owls….White ceramic owl bookends, ceramic owls, stuffed owls. I heart owls.
Nicole says
Fab me!!
I have a shiny metallic lamp shaped like one of Jeff Koons’ balloon dogs… I get compliments all the time!
Aimee C. says
FAB ME!
I have a large piece of driftwood my kids brought home for me, I added hangers and it now hangs on out living room wall.
Rebecca says
FAB ME!
I have a yellow framed poster of a woman’s face that I love. I actually bought a back-up copy in case the current one bites the dust :)
Jennifer says
Fab me!!!
I don’t know what you’re talking about… I don’t have anything odd or quirky in my house. ;)
Stacey says
FAB ME!
In my favorite room, I love the curtains and the deep moody paint!
Cathie says
FAB ME! My whole townhouse is full of bright colours, but my favourite place to sit is in my hot pink velvet chair.
Ashley P says
FAB ME!
I had a bobblehead made of my boyfriend playing basketball and gave it to him for his birthday years ago. Now it hangs out on the bookshelf … makes me smile every time I see it!
Trish says
Fab me!
Yay, I’m eligible for this one :) I have a bright red British Telecom 746 phone – good job where I live the numbers are only six digits long otherwise I’d get dialling fatigue!
Andrea says
FAB ME!
I have a large urn that i’ve painted bright yellow. it’s the perfect pop of colour in my grey walled and primarily white living room.
Meghan says
FAB ME!
Hmm… I don’t have anything terribly quirky besides my awesome accordion and a real art piece that I picked up in North Korea. So, I guess not everyone has art work done by a North Korean.
Megan says
Fab Me! I don’t yet own anything “quirky” but would love to get something. Maybe I should ask my friends if this is true…
Angela says
FAB ME!!!
Not sure how quirky it is, but I have this John Lennon artwork, an original print, up in my dining room. I’ve never seen anyone else with anything like it, except my older sister who also has one (both were passed down from our father). Mine is the one titled “It’s Only Rock n Roll”.. just look it up in Google images and you might see why it’s somewhat quirky. There is a lot to think about it! (My older sister has “Bed in for Peace”)
Another quirky thing: My mom was a huge Rod Stewart fan. One day at the Fairfax Flea Market in LA I found a pencil drawing of him, suuuuper well down, the pencil is kinda light except for his eyes, it’s probably about 14×12 or something. So in memory of my mom, I bought it for $14! It was drawn in 1984 and it’s one of those drawings where his eyes follow you wherever you go. Everyone always asks me why I have this drawing of Rod Stewart.
Will says
FAB ME! My wife would love some new pillows for our new home.
Kara says
FAB ME!
I have a very colorful baby mobile that my friend brought back from Uganda last summer. Can’t wait to put it up in our new nursery in the house we just closed on this morning!
angela says
fab me!
my (apartment-friendly) wallpaper is the quirkiest most colorful thing in my place :)
Kristen B. says
FAB ME! My (growing) collection of animal decorations. I have a wooden pig, a jade bear, a stone sea turtle, a wooden turtle, a ceramic sea urchin, a ceramic owl and a mosaic bull. It seems like alot more when I actually have to write them all out. LOL
Jessica says
Fab me! I’m not nearly as bold as I’d like to be…this could help!
Laura T. says
FAB ME!
The quirkiest thing we have is probably our living/dining room light shade – it’s a white ceramic-look bird cage with a bird silhouette hanging below the light. Because it’s all white and has simple lines it looks interesting rather than OTT :)
Patti says
FAB ME!! I have furniture painted every color and reupholstered with every fabric I can come up with ;)
Lindsey says
FAB ME!
katecooks says
FAB ME! I have a retro piece of art in my kitchen with framed cereal pieces from the 70s. Always a good conversation starter! It’s quirky but also cute :)
Jessica brown says
Fab me! I have a super cool bench made from an old tractor seat. It rocks!
Tara says
FAB ME!! My favorite quirky items is an old letterpress tray that we are displaying Lego figures in. It is on the wall in our basement…near the Lego building station that my two boys spend all their free time at.
Kaitlin says
Fab Me! :) My mom and sister found this awesome ceramic parrot lamp at a garage sale–it was definitely a conversation starter in my college apartment!

Fab me! Most of my house is quirky. I “shopped” from my in-laws farm over Christmas. :)

Amy L says
FAB ME! Hmm, I think I need some quirky in my house!
Gita says
FAB ME!
I have a large, colorful print of my favorite Rothko painting, Untitled (Red, Orange) 1968, which I saw at Fondation Beyeler in Switzerland. I bought a poster of it while I was there and had it professionally framed when I returned home.
Sarah says
FAB ME!
We have a carved Maasai spear hanging on the wall, picked up when I was in Kenya .
Cicelee says
FAB ME!
I have this thing for collecting/saving Patron bottles, wine bottles, etc. Not a huge drinker by any means, but I just love the different shapes and colors, so have been collecting them for some time. They are randomly strewn throughout my kitchen – it’s time to come up with a fun funky way to display.
Rachelle says
FAB ME!
Saleha says
Fab me!
Emily says
FAB ME!
A red vintage letter on the wall from an old light up store sign.
Lilly says
Fab me, I love, love, love the side tables in my living room hand painted by me in colorful, greenish, bluish, turquoise pint sized color that I picked up for .50 cents at the oops section in the paint department not knowing what I would use it for. It gave my side tables a new life for shizzel my nizzle.
Jen R. says
Fab Me!
I love the homemade yellow curtains in my kids room. The bright green homemade valance in my kitchen and my yellow/white picture frame collage in my living room. I could use a lot more fab though!
Frieda says
FAB ME! This is awesome! I love my mint green accent walls!
Dreda says
Fab me. I have unusual vase that was my grandmothers.

I recently found at a crazy cool thrift shop in FL (while on vacation) this awesome 7 in round ceramic peacock! I love the colors so much, now I have to find a place for it (somewhere I will see it everyday)

FAB ME!
Quirky 20+ ceramic birds lining the top of my piano.
Emily says
FAB ME!
I have this awesome chair with dots all over it. I don’t really think it’s crazy (it’s great), but my husband thinks it’s crazy :-)
Steph B. says
FAB ME! I have a white mosaic-glass owl lamp on the table in my entryway – its a glass owl with a bulb inside so it glows when you turn it on. It serves no purpose whatsoever but I LOVE it.
Christina says
Fab Me! Hootie, the little brass owl I recently fell in love with and purchased from an Etsy shop!
