**A Halloween Haul: A Spooky Seasonal Shopping Adventure**

As we approach the spookiest time of the year, I couldn't resist the urge to embark on a shopping adventure to get my hands on some seasonal goodies. I recently picked up a variety of Halloween-themed items that I just had to have, and I'm excited to share them with you.

**Spiders, Oh My!**

One of my first purchases was a spider-shaped bag, which I just couldn't resist because of its creepy-cute design. The seller described it as "a one-eyed monster with a candy hornbeam," and I couldn't agree more - it's absolutely adorable. I also picked up some cute little bags that are perfect for storing small Halloween treats or goodies. With 18 bags in total, I'm excited to see how I'll use them.

**Wall Decorations: A Spooky Touch**

Next up were some wall decorations that really caught my eye. It seems that the seller had new designs this year, including a light-up door cover with glowing eyes - isn't that just spooky? I also picked up a few other decorative items, including a witch's station that I absolutely adore.

**A Change of Plans**

Originally, I had planned to host a Halloween party in my home, but plans changed and I didn't end up needing all the decorations after all. However, I still couldn't resist buying some seasonal goodies, even if it was just for myself. The seller's selection was vast, with everything from creepy crawlies to witch-themed decor.

**Special Finds**

One of my favorite finds was a handmade card from a talented artist who had created a roller coaster using mice as the main characters. It's absolutely adorable and I'm excited to use it soon. Another card caught my eye because of its clever design, featuring a one-eyed ghost, a wizard, and even a ninja turtle all dressed up for Halloween.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhi guys I am gonna do a Dollar Tree haul today because you know I have to say that I found a lot of new things so I'm excited about that I have some Halloween things that I really need to get on the ball and start decorating but you know I'm just not a fan of keeping Halloween stuff out the whole entire month of October just because it doesn't mesh with my fall stuff so I do like to only do about like the last two weeks in October to do Halloween decor and then you know I put it all up and then I continue with fall through Thanksgiving and then I put up Christmas decor so with that said I do have some Halloween stuff so I'm really excited to share this haul with you guys so let's go ahead and get started I don't know that I'm gonna go any particular order actually I am I think I'm gonna kind of sort this out all right so I'm all sorted out so I think what I'm going to do is I'm gonna leave Halloween stuff for the end and I have about three different sections so let's start at the first section which is kind of random but like planner stuff I buy these actually quite often um we've been ordering so many homecoming dresses lately and then when they get here they don't fit right or they don't look right so I have to mail them back and return them so I've been buying those a lot this month and I found everything else is new that I'm about to show you like crazy so the first thing are these color scent felt-tip pens so that's pretty cool these are the only two that I saw so these are medium tips and I'm assuming that they are the color of the pen so I don't know what they smell like though the back says aromatherapy uses essential oils to positively influence the mind body and spirit color sense therapeutic formulations include essential oils that help promote calmness relaxation alertness and fo yes Wow okay oh they write very thin a lot thinner and and very much like a pen so I love this this is perfect for my planner um Wow the quality is amazing I I can't tell you that I'm smelling anything that's gonna say yes it's the smell I honestly don't think they have that strong of a scent or maybe my allergies are preventing me from smelling anything but I would assume this is green apple this is cherry but I don't smell those that well I'm gonna guess orange and blueberry but you never know I guess this could resemble an orange but it's just you barely smell anything so I don't know what they're talking about this is smells cheap whatever this smell is I smell this one the most out of all of them and it just smells like cheap perfume but the quality of the pens I really like so I'm digging these and I'm definitely gonna keep looking to see if they have any other colors it would be nice to have like Purple's yellows a black so we'll see okay the next thing is this notebook how beautiful is this notebook and it has colored pages so I instantly was like this is different Wow if only like I could convey what this feels like but it's Wow it is like rubbery soft I don't even know like what to describe that as but as you can see there are colored pages which is perfect if you're into planning and even if you're not this is like a really fun notebook I'm not gonna lie okay then I found some new wall stickers so how adorable are these fairies and if you've watched my planner videos you know that I would use this for my planner I did that one I use like a princess theme I did Sleeping Beauty I'll attach it at the end of this video if you want to go check it out but I used a Dollar Tree like princess jerk it for that spread and I just love how cute the little fairies are and then they're even different on the back so super adorable when my daughter was little she got into like making little fairy houses she would make you know the moss she would cover things in moss and make little like sitting chairs for her fairies and she would sprinkle fairy dust in her house so if you have a little girl that's really into fairies this is really cute you could use this to decorate their little house that maybe they're making for them so very adorable I love that and next are these books now I have absolutely no use for these but what I'm gonna do is I'm actually going to give these to my sister-in-law's she's having a baby I'm gonna be an aunt so I'm really excited and these are really interesting because you get a book and you also get a CD so there's the CD includes lullaby music so it's just the music I don't think it reads the actual story but that is very cute and I I was like what at the Dollar Tree are you kidding Wow and there are so many songs in here I mean I'm gonna have to play this it'll be easy for me to take this out and listen to it and put it back but then you get like a really beautiful really beautiful children's book so how stunning is that and these were the two that I found so you get I love you more and then the night-night song how cute a little mice adorable look how cute that little cow is on every page is like a different family like this is a cow there were there was like cats in here the raccoons wow this is just outstanding and if these lullaby this music CD not to be beautiful I'm gonna be just blown away all right so the last things in this first section are lists pads I went ham because I've never seen anything so cute in my life I take that back my favorite list pads from dollar trees were the ones that they shaped in the form of fruit who remembers those the grapes I think I even halted in my Dollar Tree throwback Thursday which I am gonna do another series of that I just haven't gotten around to it so those were my favorite list tags but these are new and this one says roll with it which is adorable I mean way to go Dollar Tree you do get the magnet so that you can put it on your fridge and I like the design very cute this one um hello you're baking very cute I love this yellow I'm loving this pop of yellow very cute and then here is a blue with teacups what what I thank you Dollar Tree thank you you're whatever you're doing keep doing it because you're doing it right okay so this one says stuff to do as a coffee cup it says just brew it which is cute because are they kind of like going off of Nikes just to do it that's really adorable I love the green gingham it's very cute and then this is like the shape of the steam very thoughtful very creative and then you have this one which has a cherry pie theme which I love very cute and then the last one is fruits and I really love this one I just adore this one so cute to me yeah so I feel like I got every single one but one pattern I think there was one that I was like but I'm gonna go back and see that I put out anymore because these worth is just amazing I love these let's move on to the next section which is breast cancer awareness so Dollar Tree has had been putting out the pink ribbon for quite a few years but every year they're improving more and more and I love seeing that I love that they don't just put out whatever they did last year and they're like here you go they it appears that they're putting thought into what they're putting in their stores and I really appreciate that so um and I just think all of these things are very very cute so I'm going to show you one I don't even know what to pick and show you first okay let's go with this journal so it's like a bright hot pink and metallic it's very cute and I just buy the company called crown jewels which I don't think that they're necessarily associated to Dollar Tree but Dollar Tree has been obviously buying things from them and putting it out in the store and crown jewels has put out some of the cutest stuff so I'm not surprised by this at all here is another notebook and I'll show you they're identical in terms of style but in terms of print obviously different okay the next thing is this little pink bandana I just adore this bandana and when my daughter cheers they always do like a theme every single week and the month of October is pink out so I thought that maybe she could like wear this even though she may not be able to because the team looks uniform and they do a whole thing for breast cancer they even have a special uniform that has like the ribbon on it they wear a pink bow they have pink palms so my her school is very involved in the so I don't think she'll be able to like wear this and be the only one but I'll probably end up wearing it to the game myself all right next is this little pocket notepad I love the argyle pattern love that so this is really pretty and then here is a huge list pad I love the font I love it this is hope and white and not the ribbon is pink I love that and then look how cute this is it's in the shape of the ribbon and I don't know how many sticky notes you get in here I don't really think that matters who goes through a whole thing of sticky notes like decorative ones I don't go through a whole one or I have it at least yet the last two things are my favorite what and just I can't so here's that argyle pattern again with the pocket notepad and then pink power pink power I love that term I've never actually heard that before so I don't know if that's a term that's widely used for breast cancer but pink power is honestly the cutest thing I've ever heard and then this one oh I love it and so if you know somebody who or if you know that this is just very important to somebody you could definitely put a very cute basket together from Dollar Tree to give to somebody and if you want me to do a basket like this filled with like a pink breast cancer theme just comment down below let me know and I'll do a video of that for you guys alright so now moving on to the very last section which is my Halloween stuff so let's go ahead and go I got some glow sticks Halloween I just figured why not I also got a skull he's pretty scary pretty realistic I want to do idea why I don't know if I might be able to get to it but hopefully I'll be able to get to it but I have a DIY mine for this guy and then I saw these flameless candles is that what we call these is all what they call I don't know I got four of them I don't know why the only thing I can't figure out is what kind of battery this takes because if I turn it on nothing happens so well this one comes on so maybe I should so check these out because I think they already provide the battery because it's probably a specialized battery and this one's probably done because someone probably left it on and let's see that's my bag so learn from my mistake yep here's that one okay I don't know what's up with this one but this one works as well so I only have one that doesn't work I could probably just take it back to Dollar Tree um which I probably will alright the next thing that I got are these spiders I get these pretty much every year I love spiders I have like Oh witches and spiders theme so I have a DIY in mind for these guys as well okay let's see I also got this spider web I just thought the quality was great like I can't tell that this is from Dollar Tree if I went to like Lowe's or Home Depot cuz they sell really cute stuff to you like I would think I would see something like that there also this spider is scary scary AF okay because it's looking like a brown recluse and like this shape of this spider is a lot scarier to me than like a tarantula something about a spider having long legs like this scares the bejesus at me okay okay so then I bought all of these cute little bags because I had to I was like these are the cutest bags I don't know what I'm gonna do with it but they are drawstring treat bags and you get 18 in here and these are pumpkins obviously so this one's kind of funny because it's like a one-eyed monster with a candy hornbeam it's kind of cute and then a black cat so I love they have like a traditional Halloween person and person whatever and then you have Frankenstein so he's really cute too so I got all four of these again no idea what I'm gonna do with it but I had to all right then I picked up some of these like wall decorations which are insane because they did not have these particular ones last year they did have like wall murals which I bought one who remembers when I was hanging it up in my house on a swivel II bar stool and everyone thought I was gonna fall and break my neck which I almost did so go check out that video if you want to see what I'm talking about but that wall mural fit above my door like perfectly and I still have it it's packed with all my Halloween stuff but I don't have a window of that specific size in this house so I don't know what I'm gonna do with it okay so this one is a light-up door cover so I'm assuming where the eyes are it lights up what so I thought it would be fun to like put this up in the game room with the bathroom that attaches to the game room and then look at this one this one's really creepy but so originally I was getting all this stuff because I thought my daughter was gonna have like a little like Halloween party here but then there's a change of plans so I'm not actually gonna host a Halloween party here but so I stopped buying stuff but yeah oh well and then here is this wall decorations I love this one this one's my favorite because it's a witches station right I love this one so much like I I'm gonna have to find a special place for this I don't know what but I'm gonna find it and then I found a new sign how cute is that like you get like the little arrows and it says which way to the trees what the play on words is very cute I love it alright in the last two things are just some in cards so I don't ever look at their like regular cards I'm only ever interested in their handmade cards which I haven't seen so comment down below let me know if you've seen a Halloween Halloween themed handmade cards because I haven't seen them and they usually always put it out for every like event season and things like that so but I saw this guy and I thought it was really cute I have something special in mine to do with this which you'll see soon and the same thing goes with this card I just thought this was really fun and one's a goal and it has like glitter on it perfection they mean it they made a freaking roller coaster these little mice made a roller coaster I can't and they're dressed up they are dressed up one's a which one's a ghost one's a wizard one looks like a ninja turtle and one's a bunny look at this that's this is the cutest card I've ever seen I'm sorry hands-down cutest card I've ever seen alright guys that is it for my haul I hope that you enjoyed it let me know if you want to see you
