Oriental Trading Co. has thousands of Halloween items. Here’s a goody bag of random treats I happen to like that I haven’t posted in previous roundups here or here (wow, there was some cool stuff in those old posts now that I look back!).

For the jewelry makers…
Hanging Bat Charms

Body Part Charms

Bat and Mummy Lampwork Beads

Latex Skull Balloons

Stripes!

Stickers (childhood, I miss you!)

Plus Bean Bag Bats (I have NO practical use for these…but they are just so darn cute).

Halfway to Halloween Countdown: Halloween Hot Sauce

Posted in food, halloween, products with tags , , on April 28, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

Everything is better with a bit o’ Halloween involved, and hot sauce is no exception. So I bring you Halloween Hot Sauce.

I am high in the running for World’s Biggest Wuss when it comes to spicy food, so I’m a Spider Venom kinda girl.

Do you like your hot sauce haunted?

Halfway to Halloween Countdown: My Pet Ghost

Posted in halloween, products, undead, you can't handle the cute with tags , , , on April 27, 2013 by shewalkssoftly

For super cheesy Halloween fare, I must admit Hallmark’s My Pet Ghost series is pretty neat.

My favorite is Maxwell McSpooky…the MAD SCIENTIST.

The bottle appears empty, until you push a button (not me in this video):

Van Der Lichamm

Posted in anatomy, products with tags , on November 3, 2012 by shewalkssoftly

This aromatherapy bottle design looks like it was made with me (and my fellow anatomical geeks) in mind!

From the Van Der Lichaam is a Dutch aromatherapy company based in Delft, Holland:

“I designed a set of perfume bottles along with a box of perfume vials. This set of perfume packages are inspired by the Victorian cabinet of curiosities. Each go the illustrations on the back of the label relates to the aromatherapy of the scent. The jasmine + sandalwood fragrance is to increase romance. The bottle features an anatomical heart illustration. The rosemary + bergamot fragrance is blended to improve metal clarity. The bottle features a brain illustration. The eucalyptus + lemon fragrance is blended to improve respiratory health. The bottle features an illustration of a pair of lungs.”

I’ll take all 3…

Halloween Countdown: Vintage Beistle Reproductions

Posted in decoration, halloween, products with tags , , on October 15, 2012 by shewalkssoftly

I am a tremendous fan of vintage Beistle Halloween decorations, but they can be rather pricey on ebay (if you want originals).

For a more reasonable price range you can visit The Vintage Beistle Store and check out a bunch of reproductions.

Not exactly the same as the weathered old ones, but still…

Do you have a favorite iconic Halloween decoration? I’d love to do a post about reader favorites.

Wonderland Sticky Notes

Posted in home, products, wish list with tags , , on August 1, 2012 by shewalkssoftly

Here’s a cute little product for people who actually still use pens and paper in the digital age (I happen to be attached to the antiquated written list).

Wonderland sticky notes! You can’t see the one in back very well, but it’s a “While You Were Down the Rabbit Hole” office memo. How fun…

Pizza Cones

Posted in food, home, products, wish list with tags , , , on July 7, 2012 by shewalkssoftly

I’ve had a mild obsession with “pizza cones” since I saw a picture of one a year or two ago. My favorite food in a novel new shape…how could I not be intrigued?

Now there’s a kit to facilitate the pizza cone making process. Here’s the demo:

I know it’s an impractical purchase…but I’m tempted. I imagine there are plenty of creative recipes one could make with this.

Has anyone had or made a pizza cone?
