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…

    I have a few wooden Indian elephants placed around the house (in every room to be honest). I am convinced they are lucky.

    FAB ME! We have a copy of van goghs sunflowers that my other half painted aged 10 in class 5 (as written under his signature!) which is full of blues and oranges and makes me smile every time I come into our bedroom :)

    We have crazy turquoise kitchen cabinets that we inherited from the previous owner. I used to hate them, but now they’re secretly my favorite thing in the house :)

    FAB ME! I have a ceramic cow creamer that I would swoon over at the grocery store for months. My husband bought it for me as a Valentine’s day gift last year.

    When my son and I left Texas, we were heart broken! One of my aunts that we left behind gave us a huge tree root that we display in our home to remind us of our Texas roots.
    Looks like a really cool sculpted piece. We love it.

    I don’t have much at the moment, but I’m keeping my …uh, 15? scarves on display in my room for some warmth & color!

    Fab Me! I have a house full of quirky animals and children- but I also a have small print that says, “excuse me, I just need you to please shut up for one minute.” The context that the print is in just makes me smile for a minute every time I pass.

    I was late jumping on the faux taxidermy trend, but I can’t help how much I love a good cardboard/papier mache/concrete/ceramic moose/deer/ram/rhino head…we are a very animal-centric house!

    FAB ME!!! I have a polka dot piggy bank. It was my grandma’s when she was little and the colors were so uncool when I was a kid but they’re just the opposite now!

    I love my yellow wingback chair I found on Craigslist…It really adds some unexpected fun to my living room, and looks great across from my black and white checkered chairs!

    The gold/bronze goose, Gus, that sits outside our front door and greets guests/the mailman. He is from my husband’s college days, and has traveled with us all over the country. He’s just part of the family now.

    FAB ME! I have a ceramic owl tealight holder that I love. It called to me when I was at Target and I couldn’t resist. The clearance sticker didn’t hurt either!

    FAB ME!! What a great giveaway! My item doesn’t scream “funky”, but I have this folding book/screen thingy of Monet’s cathedral paintings. I love it so much. :-)

    My 7 year old made me this funky wreath for Christmas at school. It is bold, colorful and definitely quirky. Yet, I love it and display it proudly! :)

    FAB ME! The first thing that comes to mind as quirky are two canvases hanging in my living room, one a peacock, the other a robin, but it’s the execution that makes them different. They’re really fun – bright and happy and definitely different than what most people have in their homes!

    We have a bamboo cutting board in the shape of the state of Wisconsin (our home state though now we live in beautiful Washington state) with a small heart carved over Madison, where we met, hanging on our wall. It was way too pretty to take knives to, and it’s a great conversation piece!

    We inherited a light fixture that looks like it has a wooden ships wheel wrapped around it when we bought our 1950s brick ranch. It lives in our entryway and I totally plan to work it in when we remodel that room. It’s so weird, but I love it!

    My favorite colorful things are my artwork. They are all either handmade or hold some sort of meaning to me.

    FAB ME! One of the quirky things we have in our house is a painting by my husband’s grandfather. It is a nude woman mirrored and sitting on a bed of red roses. Recently when my 2.5 year old niece was over at my house she said to my sister “I want to sit on flowers.” Even a conversation piece for the toddlers!

    We have a small wine rack made from an old film reel; perfect since my husband works in the film industry! :)

    Fab me!! My husband and I have a collection room with movie prop replicas and figures – so that is generally what everyone finds quirky. He is also building an R2-D2 – which lives in our office. Not something you see everywhere…
