Tesco Halloween Homeware Haul

Yes, this really is my third Halloween homeware haul! I popped to Tesco for some food shopping and couldn't resist a cheeky look in the Halloween section, and of course some thing maybe accidentally fell into my trolley and ended up coming home with me. Oops.

So nothing I bought from Tesco is actually listed on their website, even though their Halloween section is enormous! First thing that caught my eye was this ice cube tray of brains. It's just the sort of ridiculous thing I'd use all year round. I love ice and am always making trays of it, and these are really sturdy too, so you could easily use the moulds to make chocolate or jelly.

You know I couldn't resist a glittery skull right? It's only cheap polystyrene covered in glitter, but it's fun enough. I snagged two of these, they were about a quid each. 

Probably my favourite thing that I picked up was this skull candle. The holes in the top show the red on the inside, as it burns it looks like it's bleeding, which is pretty cool! It was a couple of quid again, so cheap and fun. I don't really burn candles in the house (3 cats and candles is just asking for a problem or an injury), but I might have to carefully guard this one because it burns in such a cool way.

The last thing I picked out was a set of 6 plastic tumblers in 3 patterns. They are great for kids if you are a bit 'spookier' on the daily, but I also tend to prefer plastic cups when we have BBQ parties. Drunk friends and glass are not a good combo, so I make them all use plastic... I know, I'm mean! But I like my glasses intact, and these were too cute to resist. Look at their little faces!

I'm sure I'll probably end up picking a few more pieces before Halloween.

Much love,

Halloween House Goodies

My love of Halloween doesn't stop with fashion, it also follows into how I like to decorate our house! We have skull wallpaper in our bedroom, the colour theme is black, white and red, and thanks to Halloween, I've been grabbing more little housewares to decorate with!

Supermarkets have gotten really into Halloween this year, which is always awesome news, Asda in particular. I couldn't resist these cute pieces, all less than £10 each.

Beware sign from Asda

Cute, and not so Halloweeny that you  couldn't easily have this around all year round. Not that anything being 'too' Halloweeny will stop me!

Boo to You Ghost from Asda

I haven't found a great place to hang this adorable and glittery ghost yet, but he was far too cute to resist! He is totally staying up all year round, just look at him!

Happy Halloween Sign from Asda

Ok, so I probably can't have this up all year, but it's glittery and cute, and I love that it isn't just the typical Halloween colours. It's hung from a light in our hallway to greet guests :D

Silver Skull £8 from Tesco

I feel like I could pretend to be some sort of glam rock Shakespeare with this skull. It's very weighty and well made, and it can most certainly be out all year round! I love skull motifs, and this is a fab one. It's not quite glitter or sequins, but still incredibly shiny silver.

Skull Candle £4 Asda

This candle was a must. I knew Stu would love it and that I had the perfect candlestick ready and awaiting a candle. This candle appears to be red on the inside, so I think as it burns it'll actually look like dripping blood. Wow! Love that attention to detail. It makes me think of the catacombs.

Black and Silver Glitter Pumpkin from Asda

This came in several different colours, but the black and white/silver is a classic colour combination that matches our front room perfectly. I got 2 of these, I think they were £1 or £2. They are polystyrene, so not super durable, but for something to sit on a window sill you don't need anything heavy duty!

Wooden Boo Sign from Asda

Adorable! I love the patterns in this, they really make it. Sort of Beetlejuice-cum-Halloween inspired, the swirly writing and raven meant this was destined for a spot in our front room again.

Happy Halloween hanging sign from Asda

And finally, another Happy Halloween sign. I loved the happy little facial expression and cross eyes on the skulls, as well as the glitter and colours. This is propped up right now rather than hanging anywhere, but I will find somewhere for it.

One thing I do desperately want is a Halloween wreath, seen any good ones? Let me know!

Much love,
