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!

Enjoy 50 plus more photos from AC Moore in the gallery below!

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.

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.
Countdown to Halloween, Halloween

Spooky Retail Find - Cracker Barrel 7/15/2016


Went to Cracker Barrel last night for a little breakfast for dinner!!  Hash brown casserole ... yum! They had their Halloween out, more costumes than I have seen before. I  could not resist the little salt and pepper shakers.  I got me two green ones, one Frankenowl and one Witchy Owl.

Halloween Night Light


Found this little awesome night light today at the flea market.  It had a black cat and I can not resist a black cat.  I was able to nab this little beauty for $2.  The bonus is that the orange liquid bubbles!

Halloween Treasures

One thing I've noticed since we started living here is that the flea markets around here are pretty good! So as usual, on Sundays we go to the flea market close to our house.  Some days are better than others, but that can be true about anything.  This Sunday was just a good day and sadly we didn't bring enough cash.   I got a few little things that were nice, like a choker for a dollar and a Sims 3 game for also a dollar. Yep, Sims is a little geeky guilty pleasure of mine.

We did find two items that were just really awesome finds!  First one was a Labyrinth lunchbox.  I have to clean it up, but an awesome deal for only a few dollars. I hope I can get the glitter out of his hair, I guess the former owner wanted to dress him up a bit.


The second find is my favorite, we found a vintage 1988 Dracula Halloween prop.  He was still in his box and was excited to find out when we got home that he worked!  He looks new and like nobody every really used him. Isn't he awesome!


On the way out after over 3 hours and no money left in our pockets, I find some Halloween pillows that would of been so great for the couch. Two for a dollar, why??  The gentleman suggested hitting the ATM but let us be honest, a huge ATM fee for just one dollar, nahhhh ... just was not meant to be!

Hallowe'En



The ghosts of all things past parade,
Emerging from the mist and shade
That hid them from our gaze,
And, full of song and ringing mirth,
In one glad moment of rebirth,
And again they walk the ways of earth
As in the ancient days.

The beacon light shines on the hill,
The will-o'-wisps the forests fill
With flashes filched from noon;
And witches on their broomsticks spry
Speed here and yonder in the sky,
And lift their strident voices high
Unto the Hunter's Moon.

The air resounds with tuneful notes
From myriads of straining throats,
All hailing Folly Queen;
So join the swelling choral throng,
Forget your sorrow and your wrong,
In one glad hour of joyous song
To honor Hallowe'en!
