Halloween Retail Finds - Jo-Ann Fabrics 8/6/2016



Went to Jo-Ann Fabrics this week looking for some material for a project and wow the Halloween was nice.  I spent all my time at the Halloween that I forgot all about why I was there. But hey no problem, just another excuse to go back.  But not like I need an excuse to go back to a craft store!


I loved the little Autumn/Halloween fairy garden type items. I mean after all my fairies can celebrate Halloween too, right!


Vintage kitchen towel must have!!  Well anything with black cats on it is a must, but when you add vintage style with black cats then guess what comes home with me immediately.

Over all really loved all their items, but like AC Moore nothing for baking or candy making yet.  Hopefully soon.. I have plans to make for I love to bake!!

Check out the gallery below for over 130 pictures from Jo-ann Fabrics!!

Halloween Retail Finds - AC Moore 8/6/16


It seems like every time I walk into AC Moore they always have some new Halloween surprise in store for me.  I would of never expected when I walked into AC Moore this weekend that I would have more Halloween for me to discover.  They  added lots of craft projects which I did not take photos of.  They also add some other vintage looking Halloween stuff, which I really loved and these cute steam punk looking little pumpkin.


Day of the Dead was also added, I really loved their sugar skulls. Also added was so party pack items which would be great for kids parties or trick or treaters.  



 The one thing I am waiting on is Halloween in the baking aisle.  I am curious to what Wilton will have and watch cupcake holders and candy molds will be.  I love making cupcakes!

Counting Down ...



The days are ticking down, its hard to believe we are already in August!!

Spooky Retail Finds - Big Lots 7/30/16

Went to Big Lots this weekend and they were in the middle of putting out their Halloween.  Between my phone have problems and losing some pics and there was still stuff in boxes and I was not able to get a full grasp on everything they had. I did love their skeletons!  My favorite had to be the wolf skeleton that howled.  Its great and I plan on buying one soon.




Besides the wolf, there was a dog on a leash, a cat and buzzard.  We ended up taking a buzzard home with us. I have a prefect place for him this Halloween.  They also had this lamppost that I want.  I wish they had it out of the box so I can judge it more to see if it will fit with my outdoor decorating plans.  I probably will hit a different Big Lots this weekend hoping they will have one out for display.  And also hoping they have the rest of their stuff out!




Enjoyed the little surprise of Big Lots having some of their stuff out and looking forward to seeing the rest!

Spooky Retail Finds - AC Moore 7/26/16


Had to go into PA for an errand, so after everything was done I had to check out the local stores to see if there is anything different.  There was an AC Moore down the road and I am I went to go and check it out.  They had a lot of Halloween out!


There was some really great stuff for making wreaths. I really enjoyed this little crow, just look at his hat! After looking at all their picks and I have many ideas for a new wreath or two.


I never had the pleasure of having an AC Moore where I used to live so this has been a fun new adventure.  I feel I will be doing a home Halloween decor shopping there often.

Spooky Retail Finds - Michaels 7/23/16

Looks its me! Crazy cat lady!

While I was out and about on Saturday I decide to head to another Michaels to see if this store had some different items out.  Only thing that was different was they had the Lexmax Halloween Village, which was not a bad thing, I always enjoy looking at the village.

Here are a few videos of some of the animated buildings.

Spooky Retail Finds - AC Moore 7/23/2016



I spent a very hot Saturday on the hunt for Halloween!  I was able to find 3 stores with Halloween stuff out!  One stop took me to A.C. Moore, a craft store very similar to Michaels.  I have never been to A.C. Moore before because they did not have them back in Texas were I used to live.  So it is a nice new place to discover for the first time.


They did not have all there Halloween out yet.  They were just getting started so I will be calling back next week and see when they will have it all up.  They had a nice supply of stuff to make your own wreaths, which is a plus for me, I love to make my own wreaths.  The had some blank styrofoam tombstones for $2.99 that would be fun to paint and decorate for the yard that I am planning on getting!

100 Slumbers


Counting down the days!!  100 slumbers until Halloween!!

Just to add a side note, it has been pointed out to me many times that I do not count my days right.  I count my days they way I have since I was a child.  I always marked down the days to how many sleeps.  I count the day we are are in and when I sleep and wake up that is how may more days are left.  I always would get a calendar and count backwards from 30 being day 1 until the day I was in.  Come on we all did it with Christmas ;-)  Anyway that is my logic and I can not deviate away from it.  Take me as I am.
