Ten Spooky product Finds May 2022

5/28/2022

1 Comment

Another month is creeping to a close and what a month it has been for spooky news and products!

Not only were we treated to this years Funkoween reveals but also the release date of Hocus Pocus 2 was finally revealed. Spooky season is definitely creeping closer and with it, so has the increase of my spooky product hunting.

I came across SO MANY products this month that this really was a tough one to pick only ten for, but I hope you love all of these small business finds for the month of May.

Ghoul Gang Candle

Have you ever wondered what a Ghoul Gang smells like? Well push your wondering aside as this candle has you covered!

This Ghoul Gang candle features a spooky cute design and is actually available in 12 different scents, my personal favourite being Candied Pumpkin.

Each candle comes in an apothecary style jar and is hand poured in Manchester, UK. This isn't the only spooky candle available too, 'It's just a bunch of Hocus Pocus' and 'Hey There, Pumpkin' are just two of the many other candles available from this wonderful store.

You can check out all of the candles available from Kindred Fries right here.

Cute Bat Print

This Bat print really is adorable!

This Bat product is the first of two Bat themed products on todays list and this is quite possibly the cutest bat I have ever seen. The print features a sweet little bat holding a Jack o'Lantern bucket. An original ink design that is available in a 5 x 5 inch print.

The Darkling Woods store on Etsy features heaps of incredible designs from Cat Mallard. I actually came across Cat's work on instagram and after checking out the store, I am now obsessed.

If you love this print, you'll also love the matching plush and you can view all of the treats available right here.

Witch Neon Light

You can never have too many witchy things and this neon light is a must!

This neon light features a green flying witch. Each light has been handmade and although a little more on the pricier side, compared to other items on this list, the light does come with a two year warranty.

You'll also find many other Halloween themed neon lights in this store including a Jack o'Lantern, Frankensteins Monster and even Ghostface!

You can view all of the current lights available right here.

Ghost Necklace

I am continually blown away by the creativity of some artists when searching for spooky things and this necklace is no exception.

This handmade has been forged from wire and sheet metal and includes a Lapiz Lazuli blue gemstone. I adore this necklace and have been so tempted to add it to my basket multiple times since finding it on Etsy. This would also be a perfect gift for someone who likes ghost, but the more cute than spooky kind.

There are also so many more products from the Hendrix and Rogue store and you can view them all here.

Halloween Owl Pin

One symbol of Halloween that I feel doesn't get enough love is the Owl! This Pin is perfect for vintage Halloween enthusiasts and lovers of spooky Owls too.

The enamel pin features an original design from Super Tough BC that definitely gives off vintage vibes. I personally love the colours that have bene used to create this.

Be sure to check out other spooky products available from this wonderful store right here.

Creepy Cab Diecut

Vintage Spooky Company is one of my favourite small businesses for unique Halloween decorations and he is constantly adding new designs to the store.

This die cut features three spooky characters in a NYC Yellow Cab. I picked this particular design as it's such a great design and something you wouldn't necessarily see as a Halloween decoration, which makes it all the more amazing and unique. It would be incredible to see these as souvenirs in around New York City, I know I would buy a bunch!

You can grab this and many other spooky treats right here.

Pumpkin Print

Simon's Nest is one store I have featured before on the blog and it's been long overdue for another feature as she creates such amazing designs!

This Pumpkin Print has all the vibes of Autumn and features a super happy Jack o'Lantern. You can pick up this print in three different sizes too!

Be sure to also check out all of the wonderfully spooky products from the Simon's Nest store right here.

Hanging Bat Plant Pot

How cute are these? These adorable Flying Bat Plant Holders are made from ceramic and are available in three different sizes.

Each pot has an adorable face and are handmade too! These would look so cute hanging in your home, especially in your windows filled with spooky plants.

Pick up your own bat right here.

The Salem Witch House

When I visited Salem in 2019 I fell in love with absolutely everything, including the Salem Witch House.

Although called The Witch House, it was actually owned by Jonathan Corwin who was a judge during the Salem Witch trials. This judge helped send 19 innocent people to their deaths. The house is the last building standing from the trials and is now a museum.

Cats Meow Village has recreated the house during Fall as a new wooden decoration and what's more is that y0u can also purchase all kinds of Salem locations in the same style, to create your own mini Salem.

Pick up this and many of the other designs available right here.

Vintage Halloween Poster

The final product on todays list is this amazing vintage Halloween style poster!

One thing I absolutely love is vintage Halloween and when artists create 'vintage' products, I cannot resist. This is just one of a handful of Halloween posters available from The Sinister Witch on Etsy.

You can check out all of the other designs right here.

Seven Spooky Things To Do This Week! May 18th - May 24th. Theme: Pumpkins!

5/18/2020

0 Comments

Missing Halloween and the month of October? Me too! So from now until Halloween, each week they'll be a new 'Seven Spooky Things' post to ensure you can add a bit of Halloween to your day 365 days a year.

These Seven Spooky Things should keep you well spooked from May 18th to May 24th. Throughout May each week will be themed and this weeks theme is Pumpkins!
If you want to add a little spook to your own home then you'll love this weeks SST.

Check out this weeks activities below:

Monday

To kick start this weeks theme of Pumpkins we're going to start off with some upcycling! Every single Halloween you'll always find the plastic pumpkin treat buckets in a whole bunch of different stores and if like me, you'll most likely have one sitting around the house somewhere.

So let's give it a little make over with a fresh new look! I love this make and how it adds a more vintage style to the bucket.

You can find out all the details on how to make this yourself right here.

Tuesday

Let's go into the kitchen for todays make. Today it's all about cheesecake and Pumpkin Pie cheesecake to be exact!

This is a very quick and very easy make and on top of all things very, very yummy! Serve with fresh cream or even ice cream if you're after something a little cool during these hot days that are creeping up on us.

Find out all the details right here.

Wednesday

Film night is here and just like the last two weeks, you've once again got a choice of two films to watch that fit nicely with the theme.

The first is the family friendly classic 'It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown'. Released in 1966, Great Pumpkin is a Halloween classic that so many of you watch

yeah after year, myself included. It's an adorable story that follows Charlie Brown who is on the hunt for the Great Pumpkin on Halloween night. The second film for tonight is the not-so family friendly Pumpkinhead. After a terrible accident a man conjures up a vengeful demon called Pumpkinhead to seek revenge. Release in 1988 the film actually has three sequels and has slowly developed a cult status.

Thursday

With the current pandemic you might have been one of those people who ended up stocking up on toilet paper... if you are or even if you just have an abundance sitting around the house then why not make use of one or two by making these toilet paper pumpkins.

They don't require any stitching and you can make them super easy with all different kinds of fabric. You can find out all the details right here.

Friday

I love a good Jack'o Lantern and even better when you can use them year after year, after year! These Paper Mache Jack'o Lanterns will take a little time to make but they really do look amazing.

Attach them to fairly lights (like in the picture) to give them an eerie glow or thread a string through the top and hang with a battery tealight candle inside!

Make your very own right here.

Saturday

Another easy make for you today but one kids will love. These felt pumpkins once again require no stitching at all and you can easily make them in a couple of minutes.

Once you get the hang of it too why not try making other things like ghosts and bats? Thread a string through the top and you've got your very old hanging decorations perfect for decorating or your Halloween tree. Get making your own right here.

Sunday

Your final make for this week is a big one, but one you can repeat over and over again to make all different kinds of things. You will need quite a few things for todays make so patience is definitely required but the final result is totally worth it.

Using etching cream (be sure to read the instructions on the bottle to stay safe) you can make your own etched glass Pumpkin Tealight holders. They look great, would make great gifts and you'll be able to reuse them every Halloween.

Find out everything you need and how to make rigth here.

Who to Follow

As a bonus extra each week i'll feature an instagrammer who has a spooky profile that you might like. This way you can add even more spookiness to your instagram feed each week too.

This weeks featured instagrammer is: @hkmanning01
Check out her awesome instagram for guaranteed spooky treats all week!
