The disco ball spiders and potion bottles at Target are Halloween design superstars

Okay, sometimes bargain bin products are cheap throwaways. Everybody knows this isn’t true at Target. If this is news, then take a look at the Halloween gems I spotted. As always, I’m obsessed with these. Shop for what’s still in stock in my Target Bullseye’s Playground collection here.

Decorative potion bottles

These Halloween-themed poison bottles are so well made and nicely designed. First off, the iredescent effect is striking. It instantly grabbed me. The labels are bold and the typography feels very “apothecary” as if they were grabbed from some demonic potion cabinet. The flexible rubber corks are in three forms: a skull, a witch, and a bat.

I tossed a few onto a guest bathroom shelf and even placed one at the sink.

It’s like your shelf decided to throw a Halloween party and forgot to invite the boring decorations. No cauldron needed to grab some attention with these. Every room deserves a little character, even if it’s a little witchy! Get them HERE.

Ice Scream Man skull figure

At first, I thought this was some sort of upside-down drinking cup. The styling felt hand sculpted, which also caught my eye. Again, I wasn’t really sure what I was looking at, so I did a little research.

Designed by Brutherford, this ice cream man sculpture started out as an experiment and then was licensed by Target. I think this will become a collector’s item. Brutherford’s work will get tons of attention from the awesome creation!

Pick one up here in my Bullseye’s Playground shop before they vanish.

Silver Halloween spider disco ball

These spiders are glitzy and unforgettable. Produced in two colors, the spider is made of very light plastic. Yeah, it totally looks like metal, but isn’t. The contrast between the faceted disco ball spheres and the simple, tubular legs is a thoughtful contrast of smooth and textured forms.

At a mere $1.00, I bought six for myself and covered the top of my piano with them, along with a bunch of LED candles. The scene is fab. You can see them in the video above.

Get them HERE before they scurry away.

Laboratory inspired beaker beverage cups

Made of plastic, these beverage flasks (maybe for shots?) are hilarious. I don’t know if they’re dishwasher safe, but they’ll totally look great on a black tray. Maybe fill one with dry ice? I could also imagine a black rose in one of these. It looks like you can get them in-store, but not online. Some more details about the beakers here.

Decorative Potion Bottles

Covered in sequins, these skulls sort of stared a hole right through my soul. The dark blue one adorned with gold is the sure winner. Seriously, what an unexpected color way. See them at Target HERE.

Skull and Witch Throw Pillows

I love the texture and size of these two pillows. For a second, I thought the skull was that awful ghost from Scream!
