Fall / Halloween Decor

Sakuya — Sat, 05 Jul 2025 03:09:05 GMT

Home Goods has quite a bit of Halloween product in the stores. It seems the last several years they didn't have it out this early so it was a fun surprise to see it. June 27 is when I first saw it and today even more.

It has already been mentioned that Hobby Lobby has fall on the shelves. They have even more fall than a month ago as well as more Christmas. The newer items I have noticed are priced a little bit more, but not prohibitively more. Fall was 30% off this week. Christmas is not on sale yet. It is fun to see what they have and decide what I can incorporate with what I already own.

I am very much looking forward to some harvest things Valerie showed us in her video as well as David and Jayne's Halloween show(s). Hopefully they ordered more this year as the last two years they sold so much they either cancelled the second show or shortened it.

The At Home store started to stock fall florals last week. I have not yet checked it this week.

Has anyone else spotted fall or Halloween in brick and mortar stores?

Home Goods, AtHome, Cracker Barrel.... Many retailers have fall and especially Halloween on display now. I also read that some Spirit Halloween stores, which would usually open in September, have plans to open in August. Retailers seem to have placed orders for items earlier this year, I am guessing due to the anticipated pricing increases for items from overseas.

Enthusiasm for fall and Halloween decor seems to be at an all time high this year. 🎃👻

Wow...this is a record. I hate it that "pumpkins" have moved earlier and earlier....used to be Sept, then August. July? No thank you! July's my favorite month, summer my favorite season...it's enough we see "Christmas" all during it (not being Debbie Downer, I know loads of people love it, fine.)

Summer seems to be a weaker season for retailers after they try to sell 4th stuff. I used to work in clothing retail/buying....(at least here in the Northeast) the shows were smaller for summer things, the selling was mostly in early spring and then sales all summer once you hit July 4th, inventory weaker than fall/Christmas/spring. They push the seasons that sell best...I guess Fall/Christmas is the best for them.

Anyway, NO THANKS to FALL IN JULY for me! I'm steeped in SUMMER through Sept 22! 😎☀️👙🍉⛱️🌊🦀🐚

ps. This gets discussed, "debated" every year on these boards, Lol. Pretty soon maybe Q will have "Halloween in June!"

I love fall, but not a fan of Halloween. But NOT in June and July. I know retailers push the seasons.

I did see at walmart a sign that said "Summerween" when I walked in the door. They had a bin of blankets with skeletons doing summer things.

Just have to say that when I worked in retail--Party City ---all the holiday stuff started coming in just after the 4th-----even candy. there was even a small section set up with Halloween stuff in July--not surprised in the least--that's retail.

I noticed a few items at Home Goods. In my area Halloween items usually come in more around August.

I ran into the At Home store this evening. They have a lot of Halloween on display now. Quite a bit of scary things which is not how I decorate. I will keep popping in to see what new items they add to their collection.

I was at Hobby Lobby yesterday. The fall items are coming in but not much Halloween yet except for pumpkins, hay and scarecrows. I wish we had an At Home store in my area. Closest one is in a high traffic area about 15 miles from me.

I love fall, but not a fan of Halloween since it became so scary and grotesque.

@Estellee
Where I live Hobby lobby does not carry any Halloween decor. They are a very religious outfit and I guess the corporate office is of the belief that Halloween is related to the devil or something like that.
Home Goods, At Home, TJMAX, Marshalls, the online store Oriental Trading Company and maybe Kirklands are some places to look for Halloween.

@50Mickey Oh, that makes sense. I know they are closed on Sundays so that explains that.

Bath & Body Works has some Halloween stuff out.

I went to the Bath and Body Works website and they are advertising "Summerween" as well. Is this now a thing?

Pottery Barn has added more Halloween items to their website.

Crate and Barrel has Halloween on their website now too. I like the set of 3 cheese knives.

It would be a nice idea if QVC offered more adult/elegant Halloween entertaining items. It would be something different.

How about a Q branded entertainment line? Just think of all the holidays with a more upscale presence?

World Market has their fall product online.
