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…

    FAB ME! Every single room in our home is a BOLD color. We have nutmeg brown, navy blue, red, grass green, etc. we do not have a single wall that is light colored, neutral, etc. but we like it.. It’s fun and vibrant and cozy. We offset the bold walls with more neutral tones so it’s not too heavy.

    Fab Me! I have a great watercolor of a porcupine…I believe it was once on a calendar but I have framed it and named him of course :)

    I have a massive piece of art that measures 7 feet tall by 9 feet wide. I don’t know that that’s quirky but it is unusual…

    I live in a small 1 bathroom (for now) house. I have an old metal sign hanging in there. It says,”No Loitering – Punishable by Law”. I can’t say that it really works.

    Fab me! My quirkiest piece of decor has to be my jackalope mount. Jackalopes are a big joke between my stepdad and I and its nice to have a little (although kind of weird) nod to our relationship in my house!

    FAB ME! I have an old set of red shutters on my mantel that provide the perfect backdrop for my everchanging holiday decorations.

    I love a stuffed colourful elephant that hangs from the ceiling on a coiled spring above my son’s change table. It makes us both happy even in those unpleasant moments :)

    We’re currently finishing our basement and planning some quirky things for down there. For now, I’ll go with our daugthers’ shared bedroom that we painted in random sqaures on two walls–we have about 8 colors in that room but it’s somehow not overwhelming (at least we don’t think so).

    I am absolutely in love with a set of fabric blinds my boyfriend and I made out of thick, tapestry-like fabric we picked up on sale. They have a bold, graphic floral pattern on them that is both masculine and feminine-important when you’re trying to appeal to both male and female tastes. During the day, the block light, but the double sided design lets the shadows of the patterns from the window side show through into the interior. I absolutely love them!

    FAB ME! I love the minimum wage art that I bought in college from a local artist – colorful and totally unique.

    love this giveaway! I received an Ohio cutting board for Christmas – similar to the one you have pictured! I also have a few quirky throw pillows (one that is embroidered with a faux bois print and has my husband and my names “carved” in to the tree)

    I have a really awesome collection of elephants, as that is my favorite animal. My dog is even named Ella as an ode to my love.

    I don’t currently have anything quirky in my home (sad face!), but I have my eye on a white ceramic fish shaped (Complete with scales!) serving platter! No one has bought this bad boy at our local flea market/thrift shop, I’m not sure what they are really called. I’m just trying to convince the hubby to adopt him and his little pig shaped cutting board friend!

    FAB ME! I have a bunch of Earth As Art prints all over my house, along with a few prints from the Hubble telescope. They’re beautiful and my astronomy-loving husband thinks they’re great too. :)

    My Mother in Law (may she rest in peace) did in fact leave behind a very odd collection of Ceramic animals – but all minis. In one section of a book shelf, she used books stacked at different levels covered in burlap to create a happy little land. We probably have 30 if not 40 TINY ceramic animals playing there. I think my favorite is the otter on his back, with happy feet and paws in the air! FABME!

    Fab Me! We have a giant EAT sign in our dining room. The letters were the big glass and neons taken off an old car dealership in town when they upgraded! We love it.

    FAB ME! I sell used books for a living, so I have lots of random, yet funny titles posted all around the house. Never a dull moment in my guest room.

    I have a huge pinata shaped like a chile pepper hanging in my living room. It doesn’t match with anything and is just plain weird. It was from my bridal shower, and it is just to awesome to toss. lol

    Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!

    FAB ME! I keep buying nesting dolls. I have five so far. I need to find a good way to display them so they don’t end up looking like clutter.

    I think I’m seriously lacking in the “fab” department as I can’t think of anything that is weird, quircky, or colorful outside of our muted blue/green/beige theme!
