Time for Halloween Shopping Already

Indian summer is still going strong in most parts of the northern hemisphere, but Halloween goodies are starting to appear in stores. And you know the best things will sell out fast, so when you see something you like, you better snap it up as soon as possible. I love adding a few little items to my home decor, nothing too cutesy or cliche, & I have to be careful not to overload on the clutter. But it's hard to resist treats like these...

bat corkscrew from Pottery Barn

Pottery Barn bat wine corkscrew, $14.50 -- Cute & practical, this would make a good gift, maybe buy a couple to give later.

Pottery Barn Day of the Dead skull-print napkins, $28 -- Lovely set of 4, great for everyday use.

Williams-Sonoma skull pancake molds, $19.95 -- Set of 3, how fun for a spooky breakfast any time, make pancakes in skull shapes!

Williams-Sonoma skull appetizer & dip tray, $34.95 -- Heavy black stoneware set, perfect for parties. The store has a whole line of Halloween dishes in this style, check them all out.

candleholders from Grandin Road

Grandin Road wrought iron candleholders, $10-$12 -- Like little iron fences, ideal for gothic decor. Currently on sale.

These & much more are on my Halloween on Sale 2013 Pinterest board, & I'll keep adding as I find stuff. Check back throughout the next month.
