My father brought me a giant box of new, vintage, and primitive Halloween decor that he got at a thrift shop for $10. All of it was beautiful and purchased in June.<br /><br />Just today I went to a local shop and got two medium sized, rustic pumpkins, a large luminary one, and a hand carved primitive witch. All for 3 bucks :)EmphaticReprievehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08129397996235641851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-25600128847375805342013-07-15T11:54:48.364-04:002013-07-15T11:54:48.364-04:00Oh, and there's a year-round Halloween store i...Oh, and there's a year-round Halloween store in Fairmont, WV called The Illusive Skull. Two floors of costumes, makeup, decorations (although not a lot) and sometimes they have classes on makeup related stuff.

They tend not to have too many aisles worth when they do have it, but then, I'd only feel it was "enough" if the whole store were full of Halloweenies.<br /><br />When they do start getting in shipments, I'm there EVERY WEEKEND. Have to make sure I get the best choices when the trucks come. I rarely go to Homegoods throughout the rest of the year, but at the magical time of year, they all know me by sight. It's the only time I go to Michael's, too.Addicted to Halloweenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18146737159489287742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-35701681238724384582013-07-15T10:41:35.560-04:002013-07-15T10:41:35.560-04:00OR...
