2022 Halloween HomeGoods Haul

It is officially August and stores are already flooded with Halloween decor (I am certainly not mad about it)! HomeGoods is a place where, if you see something you like, you basically have to get it at that moment because you don’t know if you’ll come across it again! I noticed decorations started coming in around the first week of July so this haul occurred between then and now haha. I wanted to get this up ASAP so that you have a chance to check your local HomeGoods for the same thing!

If you are someone who loves Halloween but still wants to keep it elegant and chic, then this post is for you! If you are just starting out your collection and need some tips – I will share two guidelines I go by. 1.) Choose a base color for the decorations you buy. If you couldn’t tell, mine is black. 2.) Choose a metal and stick to it. My metal of choice is silver but I have also seen a ton of pieces that have accents of gold. I like to throw in a few accent colors (plum, burnt orange, white) here and there but just make sure that your base color is the most prominent in your collection! Now – on to the haul!

Left to Right: Black Woven Placemats – Set of 6 ($12.99), Skeleton Appetizer Plates ($9.99)

The black placemats go perfectly with my monochromatic black tablescape. Check out my Halloween tablescape setup here (keep an eye out for an updated tablescape this year)!

The appetizer plates are also an amazing find! I struggle to find small plates that don’t feel *childish* and look chic. I love how one set of four has a different image on each plate! If you run into these, definitely pick up two or more packs for your next party!

Left to Right: Black Blown Glass Pumpkin ($16.99), Sand + Paws Pumpkin Woods ($12.99), White Skull Candle ($19.99)

When I saw the black pumpkin, I knew I had to have it. It is GORGEOUS! Not sure where it is going yet but rest assure, it will find a home. The Sand + Paw candle smells amazing. It is very similar to Bath and Body Works Marshmallow Fireside (my #1 candle). The skull candle comes in both black and white. I chose to go with white for contrast and plan to put this on our coffee table. I’ve seen other skull candles being sold for much more and they’re half the size of the one I got!

Left to Right: Large Skeleton Bones Hurricane Candle Holder ($24.99)Medium Skeleton Bones Hurricane Candle Holder ($19.99)

I saw these a few times before pulling the trigger. I decided that these would look amazing on my coffee table with the white skull candle mentioned above! I plan on using gray pillar candles similar to this one with black stone vase filler from Target. HomeSense sells these candle holders in silver as well!

Left to Right: Small Ceramic Mixing Bowl ($5.99), Large Ceramic Mixing Bowl ($9.99), Light and Dark Gray Pumpkin Turkish Kitchen Towels ($6.99)

I love to bake all things pumpkin in the fall so these are perfect! I’ve seen similar bowls sold at Crate and Barrel around Christmas for 2x the price! 

It is so hard to find minimalist Halloween kitchen towels that are cute. This one comes in a pack of two – one light gray stripe and one dark gray.

Above: Skeleton Utensil Holder ($14.99)

When I saw this in the store, I screamed! I can NEVER find utensil holders I actually like. There are three compartments so you can display your forks, spoons, and knives at your get together. 

Above: Skeleton Hand Marble Tray ($19.99)

This tray was at every HomeGoods I visited (and I went to a lot). I plan on using this in my kitchen at our coffee station. You can also use it as a drink tray when you have guest over, an appetizer or dessert tray, or a cheese board!

Above: Three Silver Cauldrons Condiment Server ($19.99)

This is another item that I saw a few times before buying (HomeSense sells this as well). They sell this in silver and gold. I figured this would be perfect for condiments / dip such as salsa, guac, and hummus. It is also perfect to use at a drink station (hint – post coming soon on how I use this)!

I hope this post helps you get excited for Halloween!
