***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…

I have an awesome framed print of a square dog with spots, a green apple sitting on his head, and a lower case ‘a’ next to his face. Makes me smile every time I see it!
Debbie says
I have a bright yellow figurine of a woman in a sun bonnet. It was my grandmothers and I always remembered seeing it on her shelf as a little girl. Now it graces my bookshelf and I love walking in the door and being reminded of her!!

FAB ME!
I have a giant ceramic avacado green jax (jack)…Does anyone know what I’m talking about? Do kids even play that game anymore? My husband thinks it is hideous, but for some strange reason I love it. It’s a great bookend.
Meghan T says

Natalie says
FAB ME!
There’s lots in my apartment that could be considered ‘quirky’ (or just plain weird) but my favorite are two table lamps that I DIY-ed out of antique Jim Beam decanters (the same style that was used as Jeannie’s bottle in I Dream of Jeannie).
They’re functional, they look great, and I love that they have some personal history behind them (I was an obsessive– and I mean obsessive– Nick at Nite fan as a little kid).
I’m no experienced DIY-er, but the extra work was totally worth it!
paige says
FAB ME!
My Oranges painting in my bathroom!

Maria Schweighofer says
FAB ME!
I have a painting of roses that are BRIGHT pink. But I love it. And it makes me happy. Win. Win.
Erica Smith says
FAB ME! I have inadvertanly started a collection of very brightly-colored piggy-and-other-animal banks. One is a pink T-Rex…he’s probably my favorite.
Jennifer says
Fab me!
I have this awesome “Picasso face” sculpture my daughter made sitting on an entry table. Is she the next Pablo, you say? Peut être.
Grace says
FAB ME! I recently bought a small vintage dress deer for my dresser. So quirky and adorably cute.
Genevieve says
FAB ME!
D) All of the Above! I have a framed tribal-lookin’ animal-man embroidered with yarn on burlap. He’s, for sure, weird, quirky AND colorful. Found him at Goodwill. He hangs out above my toilet and probably weirds out my visitors. But being that everything else in my house isn’t that unusual, I love him!
Kate D says
FAB ME!!
I have two totally ugly 1940s ceramic animals I inherited from my great grandma, on prominent display. Totally ugly, but totally awesome!
Julie says
FAB ME! :) I love any and all initials that mean something to us!
Jess says
FAB ME!
I have an old cutex poster with directions on the back for how to stage a display in a drugstore window. I looks like a 1930s/40s movie poster. I’ve never been able to find anything out about it–I have it because it was used as support for a large antique map in a frame that eventually broke.
Keegan says
FAB ME!!!
I have a collection of quirky Dia De Los Muertes figurines that I love.
Tanya says
Fab me!! I have large orange flowered wallpaper in one wall in my kitchen!
Breana Mitchell says
FFAAAAABBB MMMEEEEEEE!
I have an Audrey Hepburn themed bathroom. I guess that’s quirky.
My roommate used to say that it freaked her out because Audrey was
watching you do your.. business. :)
Love you guys so much!!!!
Mark W. says
FAB ME!
I took an old blueprint of a local beach’s zoning map and cut it up into 36 pieces that got framed in (36) 8.5×11 frames from the dollar store that I stained. They are hung in a tight grid on our large living room wall so you can still read the map as a whole.
stephanie says
FAB ME! The quirkiest thing in our house is definitely a huge painting of two pink fish set against a yellow backdrop. The coolest part is it’s actually an old window! We actually bought it on our honeymoon a few years ago, and we’re still in love (with it, and each other)!
Ash says
FAB ME!!!
I have a glass mannequin head that lives on top of my fridge. I know, slightly creepy but shes a billboard for events that happen around our house. We frequently write notes on her,FYIs, attach grocery lists, she gets face painted for the various holidays throughout the year.
gina says
FAB ME! I have a lot of weird quirky things but I love the paintings my mom did hanging in the living room!
Aaron says
FAB ME!
I have a couple of pieces of vintage camping gear that I have displayed in the house!
Sarah says
FAB ME! My house is full of turtles; figurines, paintings, toys, you name it. I forget how much I love them until someone new comes over and goes, “um, you REALLY like turtles huh?” because there is one in every room! It’s much less tacky than it sounds, I swear ; )
Katherine S says
FAB ME! One of my favorite possessions is my catrina from Mexico – it’s a skeleton dressed in a very fancy sparkly blue dress and hat. I got her on Day of the Dead, and she’s marvelous.
Ashley Tynes says
I have an authentic sign from the Sixties that reads, “Hippies Use Backdoor.” It is displayed on a floating shelf visible from the front door.
After putting the sign up, a friend came to visit and after opening the front door immediately turned around and started to walk off the porch. I inquired and he said that he was headed to the backdoor. LOVE!
Laura says
FAB ME!
I have three little wooden birds sitting on my entry table. I got them on clearance from Target for under $2.00 a piece.
Anne says
FAB ME!
I have a huge 48 inch by 48 inch piece of diy artwork hanging on my dining room wall that is so bright and colorful. I smile from ear to ear every time I look at it!
Elisha marie says
FAB ME!!!

Holly Marie says
Fab Me!! I have a big framed print of a nun putting on stockings. Totally one of a kind.
Kristen says
Fab me!!! I like our colorful accessories in our bookcase like our teal budda head.
Crystal Anderson says
FAB ME! I have this wonderfully bold patterned bulletin board I made out of ceiling tiles. The bold pattern makes it really hard to put things on the board that are also bold but I love it just the same.
Leah says
Fab me! I have this huge colorful print from Dubai that is my favorite burst of color in an otherwise monochromatic guest room
Veronica says
FAB ME!
In my townhouse that I share with my roomie, the craziest/quirkiest thing we have is probably some wall art with gilded butterflies on it. Not very quirky… shows how safe we play things at our place. :P
Rachel P says
Fab me! My favorite colorful thing in my home is my campaign dresser that painted a soft blue for my son’s room
Melissa says
FAB ME! I recently found a vintage aqua leather chair at an estate sale. I LOVE it!
