Ooohhh! Those are great!

 

Didn't realize this but Michael's CEO left at the end of November and they just got a temp CEO last week

The Michaels Companies Establishes Interim Office of the Chief Executive Officer

so...uhh...take what you will of this information.

 

Possible potential for arches again, they have two variants in the spring line

 

Michael's has a new Gothic collection for this year. Similar to the Nevermore one from last year.

 

Man it was kinda hard to find it on the website.

lmao the arch collection continues

Interesting they didn't bring back last year's designs but instead rolled them into these big pieces

 

Had to get the "My Weirdness Loves Your Madness" sign.

 

I got the scoop on Halloween y'all! Friday the 13th in June!

 

They were starting to put out the collection. The official name is Gothic Bordeaux.

 

Mine had the whole collection out today. Overall not much I'm interested in, though the dark colored glassware pieces did catch my eye. Not so much for Halloween, though.

I like the "I'm Not a Morning Person," mug, but...I can't use it because it would be a lie. 🤷‍♀️

 

LOL, the 28" narrow arch is the arch from last year just extended down. But then the 17" arch is a new design? Come on, Michaels.

 

Micheals has there gothic collection out picked up this today

 

I cannot read this, but it looks like the Halloween at Michaels might be out in July? Is that right?

 

We got dates and leaks!

 

Oh that porcelain cat ghost will be mine soon

 

Continuing to add to my bathtub collection. Looks like the one on the left might be ghosts in the sub instead of the skelly couple. And the one on the right....well...too dark to tell.

This one is a skelly for sure.

I think the bathtub design is new. Looks more like a plain free standing tub instead of the tapered vintage corner tub like the past two years.

Looks like we know where PC's disco skelly went

Curious to see what they price it at.


Agreeing with Jottle, the cats this year look great

And I think these two might be a wizard cat and ancient egypt cat (goddess Bastet)?

I know with the theme 'iridescent moon' I'll be sh*t f*cked I'm such a sucker for blue moon stuff.

 

Have to double post in both threads

That is a beautiful ornament!!!!!! Another unplanned purchase! Thank you for posting this!

 

Sorry for any confusion. I was scrolling through Michael’s website and saw it. Didn’t notice it saying AI. Ugh. AI should not be allowed on retail item pics but they don’t care what I think. I also didn’t realize until just now it isn’t sold by Michael’s and is a decal on the glass. I absolutely despise when companies sneak in items from another companies. My apologies, I messed up on every level on this one.

 

No problem Daphne. Before tariffs I shopped a LOT on Aliexpress and a bunch of companies would use AI for the mockups and actually make their final product look what was generated with several reviews from real people with real pics. Shoes especially, I have some crazy looking ones!

But this one I was like 'hmmm let's check reviews and was really soured that the reviews didn't show anything on any listing and were AI themselves too. Which led me to believe this is a 'pull the wool over the head' kind of dropshipper.

Shein is leaning the same way for stuff more lately but thankfully they give points for reviews so customers are more included to actually do photo reviews so you can see who's legit and who's a grift. I always laugh at the ones where the item looks big and then it comes only like 2 inches tall but with all the advertised detail. Those centimeter measurements always get folks 🤣

Appreciate you checking it out and posting before people bought it and showed up at my house with torches and pitchforks! Great catch!
Ah yes, the Temu 12 foot Home Depot skeletons that turned out to be keychains! Who can forget that fiasco? Amazon allows sellers to steal legit pics and sell counterfeits which is so messed up. I saw multiple sellers with awesome Highland cow house shoes that were an amazing price until I realized the reviews showed pictures that looked like what the cow generated on the opposite end. These lowlifes had all stolen the pics from the real company that made them. You get what you pay for. Lowlifes suck.

 

I took a trip to Michael's and found a ton of Halloween!
And the Lemax Spooky Town Village set up !

 

New Ashland items posting on the Web site. It's at 372 products, so not sure if this is the entire collection. I hope they add the Tiny Treasures/miniatures. Here's the link: Search Product | Michaels

 

On the flip side I did the Halloween category and selected 'Ashland' as the Brand in the side bar which gives 476 results.

3ft Disco Skelly's studio pics look the same as Party City's Baby Disco pics so I definitely think it's the same factory.

This lamp is so pretty!

Excuse me but wtf is this?

I'm really happy the wolf door knocker is back albeit in a black colorway. Same with the snail. Both pieces I missed out on last year. Glad to see the prices stayed the same.

What she said!!! Assume they had a bunch of extra parts left over, everyone had just gotten back from happy hour and someone said those infamous words... "hey ya'll watch this!!". I could have possibly accepted it without the hands but they put it completely over the top for me.

 

I guess I was a day or two early. I think the set date is Friday the 13th

 

I saw a couple of YouTube videos where some Michaels had the full thing set up. This cat, I do want two, but the rear view had me laughing.

 

I am circling like a vulture for Canada's drop tomorrow. I need these lamps.
