    I hit Michael's over the weekend, used my older 40% off coupon to get what they call a "Chrome Skull". It is a little be-dazzled, but with the right light and in combination with other skulls of various shapes, sizes and textures, it should be okay. It's remotely similar to this:

    Went to Michael's at lunch today and was over-whelmed with happiness, that they have set out the Spooky Town items =) Used my 50% off coupon to get the fiber optic tree and also a stone looking urn from the home/garden section that is now only $17.00 >=) I am a HAPPY girl!

    On another note, I was a little put off by the "glamorous" Halloween items at the end of one of the isles. Sliver, glitter skulls... YIKES... maybe it's just not my style. But to top it off, the bust with the glittery skull of a head, looked like a piece that they had last year, that they just dipped in glitter this year.

    Am I the only one that feels this way? I don't intent to offend anyone who does like it.

    Still, in all, I was/am VERY excited to see Halloween popping up in stores =)

    sorry curly, but i want one of those sparkly skelly heads. that would really enhance a bunch of heads sitting together with a light on them.
    rikki, thanks for posting that pic. you came through again this year. i work at kmart. i see they have been making space for something. i figure it is back to school supplies. i am thinking of the next time the manager [tim] works to find out when the halloween will be hitting the stores. usually around here walgreens puts out first, then target, and walmart. shopko is the last to put out, and it's not usually to much of the good stuff.

    You're more than welcome Hallo!
    I actually like the glittery stuff when it's not overdone. Though I like it for my home decorations but not my party (and certainly wouldn't want it for a haunt!).

    Last year I got a couple of halloween trees at spirit. They're 4ft tall with black limbs and orange lights...basically a needleless Christmas tree.

    I think those glittery, tassley, skulls would make great ornaments for it. The tree is on the left....this whole display will be gone this year as I have much cooler props to stick there now

    I'm hoping to make it to that garden ridge by the end of the week and judging by the pictures you posted of what they have, i'm excited. I went to the old time pottery in florence, ky. I'm assuming if you go to one somewhere in the near by tri state area, the selection should be about the same.

    Ok, the above skull is cool. I would be happy to have it displayed in my apothecary.

    The disco ball "bling" skull at Michaels this year is a terrifying puddle of meconium.

    rikki and curlgoddess, i agree, the glitter has to be used in the right way. i never thought of this before, but my haunters are young, maybe i should do a disco haunt some year, i bet the kids would love it. that skelly head would be perfect.
    i asked at kmart today when the halloween stuff would be coming out. the manager looked at me and with surprise on his face said why. i said i'm a big halloween lover. he laughed with glee on his face. then he said not till august. i think he is a halloween buff as well.

    I kind of like the glitter ones too. We are planning on decorating the fireplace mantle with black mirror,candle holders and that spiderweb cloth and I think these would give it the added sparkle it needs to dress it up. I will probably make my own tho'
