Day of the Dead Haul 💀

 I think it is the first time I make a Day of the Dead haul. That's because other than pan de muerto and some candy at the Alfeñique Fair, I rarely buy stuff related to this date. Which is weird cuz I actually do like this holiday, I just don't decorate for it.

This year, between some presents and a few things I bought, I managed to put a small haul and decided to share it here because, it's new! Haha.

I'm going to start with a pressie. My mom gave me this Pan de Muerto candle that smells like chocolate, it's delish! And even tho it's a small candle, the smell fills up my room. I just love it.

This was a bit of a random purchase. Dia de Muertos toilet paper. The presentation was too cute to resist. Sadly, the paper itself doesn't have anything themed or different.

Here are the things I got at the Alfeñique Fair, sweets, sweets, sweets! LOL.

This skull cookies have a name but, I can't remember it right now. Anyway, I usually get these every year. My dad used to get them and like them a lot.

Cherry nougat candy. I usually buy the traditional one but this year this one caught my eye and, it's defo worth it. SO delish!

I got many of these chocolate skulls filled with different things.

These mint marshmallows were from a smaller Alfeñique fair I went to. They have grounded coffee beans. So, so good. 

There's nothing too exciting about this special edition rotini but, it's orange and it's Day of the Dead so, I had to get it. Hehe.

Lastly we have wax melts. I got a wax melter last month and I finally got some wax to melt there. I wanted pumpkin or Halloween  wax but, I couldn't find them anymore so, sugar skull it is. It smells nice, it's sweet. These were on sale at Walmart.

And, that's everything guys! My first Day of the Dead haul ever. I don't even know if we'll have another one next year, we'll see. 
I still have some Halloween posts coming, I wanna share them before it's officially Christmas season. And, in a way, I'm still holding on to spooky season, haha.

See you next time~!💀

Halloween Haul 2025 ⚰️

I know I've been sharing spooky hauls in the past few months but, they were not really Halloween hauls. Today we have a collective haul with actual Halloween items. I know some things from the spooky hauls could be considered Halloween stuff for some but I decided to share here the things I got that were part of Halloween merch in stores or super in-your-face Halloween goodies.

OK! Let's get started!

I'm gonna start with the oldest item. I found this Snoopy book at a garage sale. It's actually a Mc Donald's book and even tho it comes with stories from other holidays as well, I mainly got it because of the Great Pumpkin and the Halloween part. I think The Great Pumpkin is a Halloween classic so, I had to include it here.

A sneak peek of what it looks like inside.

These Halloween scrunchies are from Temu. They came in a set of 8 (I think) but I only kept 3, the others are going to be part of my Halloween pressies this year. They all have a different design and color. I think they are a perfect way to add a Halloween touch without being too obvious. 

Closer look to the designs. I love them!

Witch hat straw top thingy. A few months ago I got a bat one and I love them. I think it's a fun wat to decotare your drinks, hehe. This one came in a set too, and it's also from Temu.


Halloween Pimple Patches! Do I need them? Probably not but, I couldn't resist, they are way too cute! 
They are from (surprise, surprise) Temu too. They had other brands and designs to choose from.

Moving on to Walmart, I got this Oogie Boogie jar from their Nightmare Before Christmas collection this year. I think it was the first thing I got when they started releasing some early Halloween. Right now, it is on my coffee station, I decided to keep some sugar on it for now.

I rarely choose Oogie Boogie stuff but I decided to go for it this year to have something different. They also Had a Jack one that was orange, I kinda wanted to get it too.

I also found this Rae Dunn canister at Walmart. I wanted one of these for a while now so I was very happy when I saw it. I wish it had a different phrase so I could keep it all year cuz Trick or Treat is super Halloweeny. Oh well. I think this could work as a cookie jar but I kept some tea bags in it.

Back to Temu, I got Halloween mascara! It might not be the best brand ever but, presentation is cute, I can use it in other seasons too and honestly, it does the job. They had other fantasy colors for costumes and stuff, I got this one cuz I wanna wear it as normal, everyday mascara.

So not necessary but, I got another Halloween plate. Loved the color combination, the fact that it was witchy and, of course, the bats. Plus, it's huge!

This wooden sign is so fun! I mainly wanted it to decorate my coffee station this year but I also think it'd look great on a bar or the kitchen.

I see this set of 4 place mats every year and I never get them, so this year I decided to go for it, the match a table cloth I got last year and if you don't use them on the table, they can add a spooky something to any other surface.

I got ghost cups for my small "Welcoming Fall" reunion with my family and, of course, I had to keep one. They are super cute, translucent and have a pretty good size for coffee. We were all in love with them. 

I love these socks to wear around the house. I have many but, I've never had Halloween ones. I just had to. They are from Temu and they had like 2 or 3 other designs. Of course I choose bats. 

I'm obsessed with the back tho, the rubbery part they usually have is a haunted house! I don't know if the picture shows it that much but, the details!

And just when I thought I was done with my halloween shopping I found this. My most unnecessary purchase so far. It's an inflatable coffin! I think it'd perfect and super fun for a pool, which I don't have (lol) and it can be also used as a cooler. I have to find a good way to use it. But, I have no regrets.

I mean, isn't it cool?

I swear everytime I say I will stop, another thing catches my eye when I go out. I ended up getting this cauldron wax melter. I wanted to get one anyway and this one is cuter than others I've seen. It is also something I will leave out all year.

And I think I'm gonna end this post here cuz I keep adding and adding things and I don't want it to be a super duper long one. Will that stop me from buying more? Probs not, but I can always share another one later, haha.

See you next time~!⚰️

Hello Fall! 🍁| Obligatory Pumpkin Haul |


 My favorite season is here and, as every year, I like to stock on Fall and especially pumpkin spice stuff, for the season and, for the rest of the year. My house usually has some Fall touches all year round. 

So, yeah. I wasn't planning to make many haul posts this month because last one had many of them but, I couldn't help it, I've been collecting some stuff and it felt like the right thing to do to welcome the season. Sorry not sorry.

Let's just do this. I'm gonna start with some things my mom gave me back in August. I love it when people think of me when they see Fall stuff~

First we have this "hello pumpkin" sign. I love the fact that it doesn't say anything "Fall" or "Thanksgiving" related, it means I can keep it on display during other seasons too. Cuz I've been called pumpkin before. You know, as a nickname because of the hair and stuff and I find it very cute. 

I kinda like it there, on my forever Fall corner. It stays like that all year.

The next item is this cute pumpkin shaped Mason jar. The size doesn't show much in the pic but it is great for coffee. Love the fact that it came with a matching lid and straw, it's perfect to take on the go.

I have mostly pumpkin stuff for the season so this candle holder is a nice change. I'm currently using it to display my Fall teaspoons that are a couple of years old now. It doesn't show that much in the pic but the glass has the leaves printed on both sides, inside and out and it's slightly translucent, I'm sure it must look pretty with a lit candle.

And to wrap up the pressies part, she gave me a Coffee Mate pumpkin spice creamer as soon as they were out at thee supermarket. You know I love me a good pumpkin spice coffee.

Moving on, here are the things that I've bought so far. I'll probably buy more, who knows?

Glade Golden Pumpkin Spice Air Freshner. According to the internet it has notes of heirloom pumpkin and star anise. Personally, I hare anise but I can't smell it here. Honestly, I can't smell the pumpkin that much either. To me it smells a little bit more like... cinammon rolls. Which is still a very cozy, Fall-like scent to me.

This wooden piece of decor is now on my coffee station and I'm planning to leave it there as a year round decor. Pumpkin spice is one of my favorite drinks / flavors so it makes sense for me to have it there. Plus the colors are pretty neutral, it doesn't scream Fall. 

Just added a couple of Fall touches to the coffee station for now.

And that's that for this haul guys, I realized most of the things here were gifts. I'm spoiled, can't deny that. 
Anyway, I'm just happy Fall and the -ber months are here. My house already has a couple of cozy Fall touches here in there since September started, I'm sure I'll start decorating for Halloween pretty soon.

See you next time~!🎃

Spooky Haul 🩸

It's time for our monthly spooky haul! Haha. These are just things I've been collecting since our last one that I don't consider to be Halloween stuff. I'll save those for October because yeah, I already started buying and collecting some Halloween goodies. 

I've gottend these things from different stores and places so, I'll try to mention them as I show you the items. Let's do this!

First we have this Yokai 3D pring. I got it ealier last month at a Japanese Matsuri I went with my friends. I believe it's supposed to be a bookmark but I have it as decoration in my room. The picture doesn't really show it but, it's textured.

This bat was a very random purchase, it's actually a dog toy we found at Walmart. I removed the tag so I don't really know the brand. My sister made it hug me while gocery shopping and... I just had to get him and name him "Billy". They had other super cute dog toys, my sister algo got one and a spider ball for the furry niece. 

I am obsessed with this bloody tee from Temu. I've seen it with other phrases on it but this one was my favorite. I got M size which is slightly loose, I don't mind but I wanted a different fit. I just think it's super fun and original. I believe they have matching pants too.

I accidentally bought 2 of these bat scrunchies and ended up giving my sister one. They are also from Temu. The scrunchie is ,ade of a velvety material but the bat wings and wars are felt. It's not the best quality but I still think they are very fun and cute.

I also bought a set of 6 black, bat socks (but I'm only keeping 4). I don't need more socks but you know, it's something we always wear so, yeah. I don't remember if they had other colors too. These are from Temu too.

Lastly we have some candy because, I had to. These gummy fangs are SO good and SO cute! I'm on my Vamps obsessed era so, it made sense to get them.

This is the most unnecessary thing and the last thing I recently got, I just couldn't resist cuz then again, we have fangs. This like one of those "baby pacifier" kind of hard candies. It's strawberry and I love strawberries so...

And that's that guys! This is probably the last spooky haul before moving to a Halloween Haul, I'm excited about it, hehe. 

See you next time~!💋
