For those that participate, Halloween is just around the corner!

It reminds me that I need to decorate, carve a pumpkin, and think about what my costume will be this year. Naturally, this brings me to The Junior League of Philadelphia, Inc. Thrift Shop to see what’s available. Shopping for Halloween items at the Shop is a great way to support the JLP and reuse decorations and costumes. Plus, when I no longer need these items, I can donate them back to keep the cycle going.

I stopped by the Shop on September 29 and some items that struck my eye were:

Remind me next time I am here I need to donate some kitchen items so I can buy other kitchen items, like these super cute cookie cutters:

These photos do not begin to cover all the Halloween items available. The Halloween section is located toward the back of the Shop, near the Lancaster Avenue entrance. While these specific items might not be there when you visit, the Shop always has unique and affordable treasures. As for me, I picked up this felt mask to use while handing out candy this year:

You never know what you are going to find at the JLP Thrift Shop!
