Spooky Haul (More like a bats haul )๐Ÿฆ‡


I feel like I should call this a "bat haul" cuz I've been a little obsessed with bats lately and most of the things you'll find here are bat related. 
I've been collecting a couple of things for the past few weeks and decided to share another spooky, halloweeny haul while I wait for my beloved October. 


I'll start with all the bat stuff, everything is from Temu.

First is this bat wing lip balm holder. I didn't even know there were lip balms holders out there! (That's how it was described but, I've seen other sellers describing it as a lighter holder so, Idk) They are the cutest! Honestly, it's not too big so you can only put a very thin lipstick or lip balm but, since it has a ring, you can also hang it from your bag or with your keys and it makes a pretty cute charm. It's made of faux leather and even tho it's pretty simple, the details on it are very well made. I'm in love with it.

My bag has seen better days but, I wanted to show you how the bat wing looks hanging from it.

This was one of those extra things that you add to your cart to reach the free shipping, hehe. But I do like them. They are small heart earrings with bat wings. They are supposed to have this "old silver" kind of look. They are pretty and simple. Different from the other bat earrings I already have. They also had them in red, I might buy them next time, they could be perfect for Valentine's Day.

I remember seeing something similar in an anime convention a while ago and, I really liked them, but I never got one. This time, I couldn't resist. It is a bat hair clip and I was actually impressed with the quality. It's made of metal and it's a little heavy. The details on it are pretty good too. Of course it's not going to hold a lot of hair but it looks really pretty in a half updo. Plus, it's a subtle way to add something spooky to an everyday outfit.


These silicone covers came together, I kept the bat and gave the skull away as a pressie. They are very, very cute and I have others on my wishlist too, I think they would make a very cute gift complement. The size is good, it was slightly big on the straws I have but, nothing too bad. They had a ton of different colos to choose from.

Moving on, these two last things aren't from Temu.

I found these cute Nightmare Before Christmas bag clips at one of my fav dollar-like stores, Prichos. The set came with two identical Jack faces so, since they had 2 different designs, my sister and I decided to get both and exchange so we could have both faces each. They are fun, cute and also useful.

I was veeeery excited when I found these! Especially this early in the year. I love Oreo so the fact that they were Halloween popcorn with these cookies made it a must try for me.
They definitely taste like Oreos and they are good but, they are way too sweet! Even for me, and I love sweet! Would I buy them again? Definitely!

How cute are these? My black cat bowl felt like the perfect one to use when I tried them.

And, that's everything for this haul. This has become a monthly thing now and I just love it. I'm sure we'll have another one next month so, yeah. 

Until next time~!๐Ÿ–ค

Sakura House Haul ๐ŸŒธ

I've made other sakura hauls in the past because, I am a sucker for everything sakura. This could've been the perfect Spring haul but it took me forever to put it togehter and, Summer is basically here now. Oh well~ I'm sharing it anyway. This time is all about house stuff; random, small house stuff. Some of the items here were pressies and I bought others, I've been collecting them for a few months now so not everything is available in stores anymore.

Let's start! 

I honestly don't know if this was something I needed but it's a sakura funnel and I didn't have one so, I got it. Guess it'll come in handy one day, haha. I got this one from Prichos, which is like a dollar store. Even tho I bought it at the beginning of the year, I've still seen it in the store. 

This was labeled as a flower pot but I got it thinking it was a popcorn bucket thingy or something like that so, that's what I'm using it for. It has a perfect size for individual snacks and the material feels pretty strong. This was also from Prichos as part of the Mother's Day collection the had this year.

Next we have this cute tin my sister got for me. I have a similar one with butterflies and blue flowers and honestly? They make a very cute item to put some tea bags, candy and other small goodies. This is now on my coffee station with some tea inside.

This next items are from a Chinese department store.

I fell in love with these bowls as soon as I saw them. They had it in blue too and I regret not getting it too. They have the perfect size for rice. I'm sure I'll get at least 2 more if I find them next time I go to that store.

This might be the most irrelevant and random item here but, it also has sakura flowers so, yeah. It's basically a kitchen cloth but it absorbs water just great. The were sold individualy and only had this color but, I regret not getting more. It's become one of my favorites.

I already showed these in my Birthday Pressies post but, I'll include them here too. These were a gift from one of my friends. I believe they were candle holders but I want to use them as sauce or dessert bowls. They are very, very pretty in person.

And, I think that's everything I wanted to show you. I feel like I don't make as many house hauls as I thought I would. Maybe I'll start sharing a bit more, let me know if you'd like that.

See you next time~!๐Ÿ’‹

Spooky Haul๐Ÿฆ‡

I know we're not that close to Halloween yet but, It's Friday the 13th so I thought this mini haul would be a fun way to celebrate the day, hehe.

I bought these things last month but it took me a while to share around here. I got everything from different stores and ended up collecting a couple of things without realizing it.

I'm gonna start with these makeup bags from Temu. I found them by accident and knew I had to get them cuz I thought they would be perfect to keep pads or tampons since they say Vampire Teabags. Do you get it? Lol.

I got one for me and a different one for my sister. I have mine in my bathroom and I just love how it looks there. 
I forgot to take a pic of the one I gave my sister but, it's this one. They had other designs too.

Next I got some Halloween nails. These were for sale cuz they were from last year’s collections, they were super cheap. I won’t go into many details here, I’ll wait until I wear them to do it.

I got two Love These Glow Tips from L.A. Colors, apparently they glow in the dark. The purple ones are called “slim-slimy” and the white “lovely bones”. How cute are these names?

The others are from imPress, this brand always has the cutest designs. They were a little more expensive than the L.A. Colors ones but, they quality and design is obviously better. I didn’t realize until I started writing this post that, these glow in the dark too. Honestly, these are my favorites and I can’t wait to wear them.

I don't like sparkling water on its own but I couldn't resist when I saw this Liquid Death sparkling water, I grabbed one as soon as I read "Murder Your Thirst". I just loved the whole concept they have. 

From the presentation to the way they describe the product. I was sold! All the details in the can are fun and perfect. Checking their website I saw they have flavored sparkling water and iced tea that could be a little bit more attractive to me. I'll see if I can find them in the future.

And lastly, I got some candy. There's a store where I can find some Halloween candy all year round and that makes me really happy. It's fun to have some spooky sweets every season.

And, that's it you guys! I might share more spooky hauls like this in the future while we wait for Halloween season. I decided that I'm not gonna wait til October to share some fun, spooky stuff. Especially because I'm always in the lookout for Halloween and horror related stuff.

Happy Friday the 13th!! ๐Ÿ”ช

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Haul

A couple of months ago I told you guys I started re-watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer and shared a very old haul. I'm currently rewatching season 6, which has to be my favorite season ever so, yeah. I'm living my Slayer era all over again. (That's my way of saying I'm beyond obsessed rn, haha).

In this haul I'm going to show you 2 things I received as pressies and some others I got from Temu. I'll start with the pressies because they arrived first, hehe.

I'm sharing this one first because, I love it way too much!

Back in March, my sister gave me this Spike blanket that has to be one of the best gifts ever for an obsessed person like me. It has a great size, it's soft and, it's got Spike on it. It's perfect! I don't sleep with it tho, I like to keep it in the living room and use it whenever I'm watching TV or to cover my legs when I'm working. I've been trying to keep it away from my cats cuz I don't want them to ruin it.
I know it's a really bad pic but, I didn't know how to show you the whole blanket and take a nice pic of it at the same time.

This next one was also something my sister gave me. It's a Buffy & Spike drawing we really liked (honestly, I don't know who the artist is) so she printed and framed it for me. I love all the details in it, the pictures on the fridge behind them, the fact that she's drinking coffee and he's drinking blood, the stakes and jacket on the table... everything! 

I love this picture so much that I also have it as the wallpaper on my phone but it's way better to have it physically in my room. You know, I love #Spuffy forever.

The next things I'm gonna show you are all from Temu, I know they are not official but, I love them and I found them for a very good price. 

Of course we have more Spike! I found this type of metal sign thingy and I had to get it. I'm not sure if I'm gonna use it to decorate my room or my office. The size is pretty decent: 30.48 x 20.32cm and even tho it is not super thick, it doesn't feel weak or cheap.

Another thing I ordered was this purple cushion cover. I liked it because even tho is from the show, it is not super obvious. Originally I wanted it for my living room but, since I'm trying to give more love to my room, I might have it on my bed... idk yet. It was actually bigger than expected, 45 x 45cm, which is not bad at all but, I clearly didn't read any of the information given. The fabric is soft, it has the print on both sides and I love the fact that is I can just throw it in the washing machine whenever I need to wash it.

These two just hanging on my living room for now~

Last thing I got from Temu is this enamel from BTVS season 5 episode "Hush". This episode is really good and actually creepy and the pin is a nice thing to remember it. Haha. Plus, I'm kinda starting a pin collection and I had to add a Buffy one.

And, that's it for now you guys. I know these are very random things but, they make really me happy. 

See you next time~!๐Ÿ’‹

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Old Haul + Chit Chat ๐Ÿง›

Super unrelated picture of me rocking my dark circles era ๐Ÿ˜…

Back in January I started rewatching Buffy the Vampire Slayer thanks to my sister. It was one of our favorite shows growing up and we shared the love with my cousins. We’d even play to BTVS, try to dress like the characters and knew the Once More With Feeling songs by heart. Of course I've watched the 1992 movie with Kristy Swanson and Luke Perry, I liked it but I fell in love with the whole thing when I started watching the show.

And of course, Spike has been a big crush of mine for the longest time now, I know, I know, he was very toxic but, he's was a vamp, most of them are like that. Right? Plus he had a loving, caring side too. I just think James Marsters is one of the sexiest men ever, even if he is old enough to be my dad, hehe.

I just can't. ❤️‍๐Ÿ”ฅ

Once the revival thing was confirmed, many people started sending me the links to the announcement and I even shared the excitement with one of my cousins. I’m kinda looking forward to see what they do with it but, I’m specially excited about seeing Sarah Michelle Gellar back as Buffy. She’s defo one of my fav characters ever.

To continue with my excitement, I thought I could share an old haul around here. A mini haul of BTVS old goodies I still keep and add 1 item I recently got.

I'll start with the oldies cuz there's something super nostalgic about them and I love them so, so much. It was veeeeery difficult to find Buffy goodies back then, at least where I live. And I guess if there was something, it was probably expensive. I'm glad I kept what I had.

The first thing I'm gonna show you is my BTVS magazine. It is from 2003. OMG. I didn't know these existed until I went to Canada and saw them. I believe it was a monthly magazine but I only got one. I didn't read it back then, or at least I don't remember doing it, I was just focusing on the photos. I did read it at some point. The magazine shared news, interviews with cast members, merch and some behind the scenes stuff.

Front & back cover

It came with this poster.

Next is something I also bought in Canada. It is my BTVS Mini Lunch Box Tin with bubble gum. The bubble gum was super cute because they were mini stakes, can't remember the flavor though. I remember my cousin was helping me to find them in a better price cuz they were expensive. I regret not getting the Spike + Buffy one but, I'm happy with the one I have.

                              

Lastly we have the BTVS Once More With Feeling Official Soundtrack which incliudes all the songs from the musical episode with the same name. My sister & I would watch this episode over and over again until we learned all the songs and dialogues and, at some point, my dad bought us the CD. Then, that was the one on replay. So I guess this wasn't only my CD but I kept it so, yeah. I still know all the lyrics to the songs, it has to be one of my favorite musicals ever.

I used to have a couple of comics too but I really don't know what happened to them, I only have 2 posters that came there. I'm including them here too. 

Now we'll move on to my newest addition.

I am team spuffy forever, that's why I knew I had to get this cap as soon as I saw it. It's perfect! I found it on Temu. Quality wise, it's ok. I wish it was embroidered instead of printed but, oh well. It still looks cute. I got a black one for my sister too because, she's also a Buffy + Spike fan. 


That's all I have for now but, I've been checking some stuff online so, I might make another Buffy haul in the future.
Tell me if you ever watched the show, if you liked it and who was your fav? I'd love to know!

See you next time~! ๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿ’‹
