Tesco Halloween Homeware Haul

Tuesday, 25 October 2016

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,

Sainsburys Halloween Homeware Haul

Thursday, 13 October 2016

So this might just be part 2 of what is at least a 3 part Halloween homeware haul... I have a problem and I have embraced it! I love Halloween and I love keeping Halloween themed things around my house all year round. Spoopy goodness!


Sainsburys have most of their range online, and in fact a whole bunch of stuff that they didn't have in my local store, however this adorable plastic Monster Munchies container is not on their website. As soon as I saw it I had to have it! It's an adorable popcorn style container and it's so damn cute. I use Halloween themed bowls like this all year round for parties and this is my new favourite.


These little felt bats are actually tree decorations! So I am absolutely keeping these to have on our actual Christmas tree. Because I like our Christmas to be spooky too!


I also couldn't resist these Halloween baubles. It's maybe a little odd to think of Halloween stuff as so cute, but I really think it is! Especially when you make it glittery too.


These baubles are only £3 a pack, so I snapped up a couple of each.


And finally, this doormat was reduced to only £1.99. We've got doormats, but they get worn out so I like to replace them, and what better theme to replace them with than a haunted house one!

I could have bought way more from Sainsburys, especially now I've been online and have seen all the other homeware they have.

Much love,
Kitty xxxx

Matalan Halloween Homeware Haul

Tuesday, 27 September 2016

Hi. My name is Kitty, and I love Halloween! Every year I get Halloween goodies to use as homeware on a regular basis because I just can't resist the spooky cuteness. When a friend mentioned that Matalan had their Halloween range in I had to pop along and have a look.. and inevitably picked up a couple of bits.


This is the only thing I can find on the Matalan website that I picked up, but look how adorable! Lights like this are really popular right now, especially with bloggers, so this light up pumpkin had to come home with me. A bargain at a fiver.


One of the things I always keep an eye out for is serving dishes, and these small dishes are perfect for parties. At £1.50 each I got all 3 designs, and would have bought more if they had them!


I love using Halloween homeware to serve up crisps, dips, olives, all that sort of party food. And I don't wait for Halloween to use them! I use them all year round. My inner goth isn't very secret when it comes to things like this.


These are deep enough to be handy for parties, but small enough that they don't take up loads of kitchen storage space either which is great, because we don't have a whole lot of space in ours!

I always end up picking a bunch of homeware over the Halloween period, where are your favourite shops to get it from?

Much love,
Kitty xxxx
