Pre-Halloween Reset Vlog!🎃 Future Decor Ideas & Wishlist!🖤 Getting Ready For the Spooky Season!✨ 

It just makes my day to find people that love Halloween as much as I do I used to think I was crazy for love so much Lol

I’m going to put an apothecary on my kitchen cabinets this year. I bought everything for it last year at At Home when everything was clearance at 90%off.

I say the same thing in the beginning of spooky season, I’m scaling back this year, never fails, I see new spooky stuff, and then I’m all over it! I did start pulling out my spooky things recently and checking things out. We do have different themes every year outside and indoors so I do try to use what I have at home and repurpose it. This year we started making new props like scarecrows and skeletons. However, I also started to invest in vintage Halloween decor and props. It’s whatever makes us happy Cris! Great job organizing and loved your pro tip. Definitely nailed it!

Queen Halloween ❤

Home Depot has some wire rack type shelving units you could stick one of those in your garage for Halloween storage

If you decide to do a witchy tree try to find a witch hat tree topper or make one!!!!!

Cris, you can do a gallery wall in the spooky bathroom with different frames (maybe black and white to stay on the theme)!! Some old photos, old houses, spooky landscapes... keep it really gothic!

Great vlog! Sounds like we have a lot in common with theming our theming lol I’m also planning on revamping some rooms this year- I also have permanent Halloween decor and add to it every year. I’m on the hunt for Haunted Mansion home decor since I made my book nook ghost themed. I’ll also update my bathroom from Hocus Pocus to a Cthulhu theme. My living room is half horror and half classic Halloween, but is full to the max. Can’t wait to see what you find this year!

The theme i like to do is traditional Halloween a spooky graveyard and a skeleton riding a Harley and some Jack O'Lanterns and and other spooky things

Always a good idea to do a visual reset to shift our environment ❤

You could get a 3 tiered Trey for your table. Put it in the center and then add your Halloween decorations to the tray and still have room to eat.

🦋👻🦋Hey, Cris! I think you need a curio cabinet for your spooky porcelain decos. That will keep them safe and add some organization...

Enjoyed the video. You have a lot of stuff… like me. I have always liked to decorate for Halloween. I have been collecting for years. I have an all around witchy theme mostly black and orange with slight pops of purple but I do go off that theme and add skeletons, pumpkins and a Butler. This year I’m adding in haunted house decor into the witch theme which will tie in my butler. My bedroom is opposite with off white lace and spooky cloth and is in a Ghost theme which was new to me last year. Had some trouble at first in how to put it together but I got it finally done and loved it. Looking forward to everything coming out for this next year. Your channel really helps!

I think ya need some shells in the garage and inside the house...it may help with organization thru out inside the house and in the garage...may help you find things better...just an idea...awesome video

Love the Bride of Frankenstein ❤

everyday is halloween.

I saw some people use those Halloween pumpkin buckets for there gardens .

🙂❤️ I can’t wait either, gosh the days going by so slow. I have my Halloween stuff. Sitting out in my living room already. Love Halloween decor❤❤❤and decorating every Halloween

omgoshhhh the little pup with a pumpkin bucket

A thought....u all could look at flea markets for a mantel for a wall and decorate it...we have a movable electric fireplace we use and decorate... But sometimes u can find mantels that people get rid of when tbey renovate... Its just a thought! 🐈‍⬛🖤🐈‍⬛🖤

Enjoyed your video, as always! And I totally love your lime green sweater!! I need to be more like you and stop buying everything I see! I watched your At Home video and immediately went to our local store and bought a lot of items you showed!! I do need to go through what I already have and stop buying so much! But it’s SO HARD!! ❤

It is looking cluttered in some spots and makes cleaning more difficult. You can always store and switch things around. That is what i do.

Great video!!! I really like your witchy tree idea. Black hats with the black and purple bats. Som glow in the dark cats. I think that would be cool. Muc Luv 💞

Gallery wall above towel rack. Shelf above door with spooky stuff you cannot see until door closed

You have great ideas Chis you’re definitely a thinker. Keep up the good work.

Awww sweet Bella in her dog bed ❤ I’m liking the alien vibe for one of your trees! Will you be adding on to your spooky village? I think you found some pieces at Michaels last year that I loved!

I did hocus pocus last year, I’m thinking about doing it again this year if possible(sp?) because there is so much more that I want to get, and decorate a different way. I do need a Sara water globe, all the spirit halloweens were out when I bought the other 2. At least around here they were. I would love to do a tree as well but I unfortunately don’t have the room. Maybe if I find a table top tree. I would definitely do a witch yard, because there is so much you can do with that, and you already have some things. I will definitely keep my eyes peeled for things, and also for the haunted mansion stuff.

you could do a pail stack with a poll in it and lights. another thing to keep in mind is moving themes around repurpusing. the pails can be used for pumpkin, T 0r T, or retro themes. you can also do the floating harry potter pumpkins with fake tea lights and wires

I love the spooky vibe all year round.

just a thought you may not have a mantle but you could decorate over the cabinets. i did it for the first time last year and loved it!

Love this video cris and I love Halloween and look after yourself and tampa jay also keep making amazing videos too.

Hi Cris! Every year I say am going to do a theme! 🫣🥴then it’s like I love all my decor! I want to see it all again! lol so I get things I enjoy. I am getting bigger items. It’s harder as I get older to curate a bunch of small decor vs larger pieces. An idea for your JOL. You can hang them with fishing line from the ceiling at different heights. You can do them like a garland against the wall. 🎃💀👻 I got the Cracker Barrel witch too! So fun! Happy Halloween 🎃

Chris the girl and tampa jay about to have fun decorating their home !!! Tampa J should pick a certain part of the house and do camp Crystal Lake theme !!!

I'm new to your channel and right away feel at home - Your personality is so genuine and I'm thankful YT brought me your way. Also that sweater is fab .. would you mind sharing where it's from? Thanks!

So nice to see all your fun Halloween items! Love your sweater! Happy haunting! ❤

Haunted Mansion Tree 👏👏👏👏

Love the spooky vibes to start off the season. Love your stuff sm

Cris, I heard you mention the pumpkin pale/buckets. I saw an inspiration photo on Pinterest where someone hung a bunch from a tree outside with orange lights. All the pumpkin pale buckets I can find are super small/mini and the regular size ones are $15 per bucket! :( I thought about using summer kid sand buckets with solar lights.

Girl I've been waiting for you to clean up that background for a while! 😂. I noticed a lot of little things tend to clutter really easily so nowadays I try and avoid buying the tiny things unless they are extremely special and then I group them all together in some cohesive way. Otherwise I like the bigger pieces and tend to go for a vintage spooky vibe. Happy hunting! ❤

I don't really decorate for holidays more than a wreath on my door and my Christmas tree. I absolutely love your bathroom and wouldn't tear it down either.

Hey Chris, you could put spooky light up eyes in your garden/trees, you could do lovely pumpkins or lanterns up your front path, you could have skeletons themed with whatever you're going with. You can buy Autumn or Halloween type plants and flowers to put in tubs, you can get outdoor lights to set an atmosphere and fairy lights. You could hang things in those little trees as long as they aren't too heavy. I know the struggle of going through your halloween stuff, I gave 4 boxes to the Scouts to get rid of things. I wish there was as much choice here in Scotland but at least we are no longer trying to make turnip (neep) lanterns and we do get TK Maxx there are only 3 At homes in Scotland though. Still, that's why I love channels like yours, you get to see what's on offer else where and get ideas from it.

You guys do an awesome decor. Much ahead from you both. Looking forward

I want to get spooky sheets….i need to also look into what plan I have this year for outdoor and indoor decor.

Loved the vlog but love your cardigan even more

Do hope you are feeling better. Have been thinking about you wishing you well. Can’t wait to see what you come up with this season!!

Hi Cris! Maybe you could look into a large curio cabinet to put your treasures in. It would give you more space to display them, i believe, and, I think most curio cabinets come with lights, so you could even turn the lights on to highlight your pieces.

I want to get spooky sheets….i need to also look into what plan I have this year for outdoor and indoor decor. I would love the 12 foot skeleton from Home Depot

I think a beetle juice tree would be so cute!

I’m kinda loving your black and white bathroom…. I hate to see you dismantle it too! ❤😊

Great Video Cris! We have the same ceramic spooky tree from Home Goods... It's just more black than purple! Hoping to meet you and @tampajay at Spookala or Spooky empire later this year!! I was crushed when Jay's flight to Texas Frightmare was cancelled was looking forward to meeting him there! Both of you are big inspirations for me starting my YT channel! Keep up the great work both of ya!

Well, as far as theming the front yard, I usually do different ones every year. Witch aliens was a great idea but we'll see how it plays out lol. Friendly reminder Cris, you have a tote of Halloween decor in your garage lol. I love the idea for a haunted mansion theme for the tree, I can see madame Leota as a tree topper. Happy Halloween and we'll see you in the next video queen.

You would love Hallmark Haunted mansion ornaments and tree topper. They light up and have sound. I think they will be available in mid July. They will release 3 more ornaments next year.

We definitely decorate on this level for Halloween. I've had a Halloween "Spooky" tree since 2019 I think. I have a love of glass blown ornaments and when I found the Halloween ones I had to have a tree for that too. I had to come back. Google Haunted Mansion tree. They are out there and they are fabulous. There are so many ideas online. Just go down the rabbit hole!

I have a print from Lucky Hellcat that is a Beetlejuice Big Boy! It would look great with the bathroom color scheme you're thinking

I love your sweater!

There is potential if you are able to hang things. Above kitchen cabinets, above door ways, maybe add simple shelving (where you don’t have to hang heavy items) to avoid making too many holes and able to move around stuff easily. You can hang your pails from the tree. Or hang them above your Halloween tree… things they can be utilized command hooks with broom handles from dollar tree to help hang things over the door ways… I really thought you were getting the bony flamingoes…

Got an idea Your black table, look around for a top part, forget the hutch.

I have so much Halloween myself. I bought a 12 ×24 foot Storage building a Few years back. I was Buying totes, but i wasnt Getting the storage i Needed. So i went to The the black garbage Totes. They worked very Well i could get 2 to 4 Reg. Size totes in to One of these. The only Problem is you cant Stack them. But i was Able to store. 25 in Storage, and my other Stuff, on them like Stuff i couldn't put in them. I have been collecting halloween Since the 80s. Im slowing down now. Im getting older in age. But let me tell you! If collecting makes you Excited and feel like Your inner child is Comming out. Take Care of her. Its medicine For your sole. I vist My collection quite Often..love to see things I forgot i have.. my Most Favorite are Paper decore, and Tablecloths. They dont Make the prints they Used to make. I have Some great prints From the 80s. And Window clings. You can put clings on Clear big empty pickle Jars. And assorted Jars to size. White Canister sets. The 80s And 90s i loved the Most. You go grillllllll..... I just wished i could have got to keep my Stuff all year long. But, it wasnt welcome In my home. Just 3 months a year. Better Than never, i lived with That. But when August hit the 1st day, It was on!!!!! Happy Halloween is Comming!

Fermented Farmhouse is my party theme this year! 😊

I would take a video and picture file of my halloween inventory on my phone of what I have great advice 😊😊😊😊

I enjoyed the video thank you🧡🎃

I can’t wait to get all my Halloween out, I already have my Jack Skeleton & NBC all out - year round…my daughter still has her splash mountain hat 😉I think ;) from MK !🖤🎃💀🕷️ You have some great stuff!

Hi Cris, just wondering, how are you feeling? I hope you're doing better, your community cares about you. 🥰

What about we ufo/alien theme tree. See if you can get we hanging aliens and we ufos. Maybe use a ufo at the top with we flashing lights and use like foam for the clouds or something..🎃🙂👽🛸

I love your barbie with the Mickey ears and Balloon. I have one in a different outfit.

August 9th 2024 - begins Mickey not that scary - Family friendly event season at Magic Kingdom 2024. 🎃🎃🎃

just an idea but why you not painting your walls Black and some Forest Green and buy some big shelfs that reach from floor to ceiling? would fit more decor, plants etc, and the room would look bigger, less crowded and spookier 😊

The reset is so refreshing right? I’m trying to do my decor planning right now too… thinking I want more vampire and bride/Frankenstein decor. I like the old school monsters vibe. Also I’m working on a haunted corn field/Jeepers Creepers theme for my front yard. And I will also be stocking up on Mrs. Meyers’s fall scents this year! Lol I love your sweater - where is it from??

Hi, newbie here. I think a haunted mansion tree would be amazing! Have you seen the ornaments and tree toppers from Hallmark that are HM themed? Im a Harry Potter collector so during Halloween i go all things witchy for the most part. I like tradional witches, Frankenstein, ghosts, werewolves, vamps ect. Cant wait to see more. Btw i love seeing your shopping videos. Im always looking for more wizard in world feel items.

I buy black cats and witches. Ghosts and pumpkins lately we get a big skeleton put in my car.

You should do a ghost and witch them outside.with like a graveyard and skeletons.and maybe do like a spooky Halloween town

I'm sure you have been asked this before but what do you think it was that spawned your love of all things Halloween??? Did it evolve from your childhood, good memories of fall time, scary movies??? Anyway I love all things spooky so I just thought I would ask.🦇

If you did a ghost themed tree you have alot of black and white things already from last year to add. If you did the purple, black green theme you have those other little buckets also from last year to put on the tree. Either would be cool.

Mornin Cris!!!👻💀👽

I want that Frankenstein Bride plush looking thing , hope I can find it lol

Hello new sub here all the way from Australia. I just wanted to say any of those smaller rugs that you have seen in previous videos, you can put them on the wall. Thats what I do (as a renter). So, you could put them in your bathroom. I also put pieces of material into frames.

I live in Queensland Australia and live in Mackay. Australia . We don't have Halloween in Australia at all. Love Des

Tampa Jay needs to use his ghost hunter device in your house. Might be surprised!

Looking beautiful

Great video I really enjoyed it. I know I said it before but your bathroom is so awesome. All the effort was definitely well worth it. But you do have alot of cool Halloween stuff. Oh and now Fiber internet is in the area I am in now I can keep up on all the content now. Last thing I really do like you make your videos in 4k.

Where did you get that cute little cactus and wooden Knick knack shelf?

Lowe's is coming out with haunted mansion animatronics I don't know if you want to have those with your tree if you're going to do a haunted mansion theme but I just thought I would let you know so you could be able to get Headstart on making purchases.

You still got a Christmas tree up lol

does crate and barrel actually sell crates and barrels

Your Bluetooth mic sounds good. You should have just clipped it to your cool sports bra

Does anyone know what color her bathroom wall is? It looks really nice I can't tell from video if it's a type of olive or a shade of brown?

👽 This should be the year of the extraterrestrial! 👽 Hi, Cris!!

I know I'm so late in the game on this I wanted to say when I saw this cuz I had misses and pulled it up on RU-vid and I was so surprised to see it but anyways you were talking about things The hills have eyes that would cover crazy and nobody knows and all kinds of skeletons cuz they hung their skeletons everywhere and bubbling in the group of but you probably have most of these things The hills have eyes

Helllllooo! What little Mic are you using?

If you don't have enough room for all your decorations. You need more shelves. Lol. Put TJ to work.

Looks like a big cluttered mess.

❤❤❤❤❤❤love you guys 😊😊😊😊👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻😱👀🕷👽🕸

🎃☠️🎃 I decorate for Halloween, but it's very traditional and crafty. I cant afford to buy store decorations. So expensive!

Wait... Crate and Barrel? or Cracker Barrel?

There is a RU-vid couple who DIY decorations. Check it out they have a lot of great ideas.

Collecting or hoarding? Looks very cluttered, think less is more, can appreciate the items when can see things clearly, just 2 cents

I'm sorry, but you need a bigger t.V to watch your scary movies.Or anything with Tampa, Jay. Just saying in eighty 5 inch TV would do that would help.

25:43// leave the Christmas lights in place. Just replace the Bulbs, or remove the Lighter bulbs. FD: my grandmother has a Christmas tree (fake but Huge) up year round. just adding presents when december came around. Trees are like plants, but larger. some people have fake fruit on their dinner table, or fake plants. so what if there be a tree up yr round. it is decor that helps the soul Bear its natural path. quote Bulworth, 'live your life (tree up and all yr round)'.

14:37// Looks good. may well make it easier to unload and such. myop u should decorate the bathrooms of where u plan to hold your wedding and reception. U have an eye for it..

front lawn ideas. oh, for sure a wannabe graveyard. u know, with half dug graves. perhaps a hedge for a Mike M to stare out from behind. and leaves leaves stuck (stick-ed/pinned down/tied) to the ground that never blow away.
