Halloween 2022 - Spooky Cushions For A Comfy Autumn

I may have gone a bit overboard where Halloween cushions are concerned, and my bed is filling up with them before I even get previous years’ decorations out of the garage.

The Spooky Season velvet cushion is my favourite, which I found in TK Maxx. I haven’t seen it on their online store, but they do have a good selection of Halloween pillowcases to purchase there. That includes the retro style pillowcases I have on my bed.

Asda also has a wonderful selection of cushions, both spooky & cute. They also have duvet covers, blankets and lots more in their Halloween homeware online section. They have Disney themed bedding to match the Stitch cushion, and the Winnie the Pooh cushion, you really can go all out with your decoration for the season now.

Somewhere you might not initially think of for home items, but where I’ve found loads of cool autumn bits and bobs this year, is SHEIN. The large, retro style, purple ghost cushion cover on my bed is a SHEIN item, and I also nabbed this cute vampire kitty cover, which has a matching wall hanging which I’ll share on Instagram when I fully decorate in a few weeks.

It’s worth checking out SHEIN for decorations, but bear in mind shipping takes about two weeks for items to be with you in the U.K.

Halloween 2022 - Matching Disney Pyjamas From George At Asda

I have always been a bit of a Halloween fan. When I was first married, my ex and I shared a tiny little flat in Holywood, and I can still remember buying imported, American, Halloween decorations in TK Maxx for it way back then fifteen years ago.

Northern Ireland, and I suppose the U.K. as a whole, have only really started doing Halloween as a big house-decorating event the past ten years or so. Growing up in the 80s and 90s it was really just carving turnips as we didn’t have pumpkins, which seems crazy now. Costumes were plastic bin bags for witches’ dresses, and those plastic masks that cut the heck out of your lips.

Now we have home decorations starting to appear in the shops months before, similar to Christmas, AND I LOVE IT! Right now I have more Halloween decorations than Christmas ones, stored in plastic tubs in my garage. So I thought I would fire up my blog again and share my finds this year, as I already have done on my Instagram in previous years, starting with pyjamas!

This year Asda has this very cute family set of Mickey and Minnie Halloween pyjamas. Prices start at £10 for children’s sizes, and £14 for adults.

For kids we also have Ghostbuster print pyjamas, some very cute Pumpkin, Ghost & Cat pyjamas, and a snuggly pumpkin onesie. There are a few other Halloween prints I haven’t included too, so lots to choose from.

For women there are also these witchy Potion pyjamas, and Crystal print pyjamas, at a pretty reasonable £12.50 a pair. George at Asda also have tonnes of Halloween themed t-shirts already in stock, as well as a small selection of fancy dress, if you are hoping to plan for October early.

I will be updating The World of Kitsch with more Halloween finds in the coming weeks, and sharing my own decorations closer to the actual date.
