October Country
...that country where it is always turning late in the year. That country where the hills are fog and the rivers are mist; where noons go quickly, dusks and twilights linger, and midnights stay. That country composed in the main of cellars, sub-cellars, coal-bins, closets, attics, and pantries faced away from the sun. That country whose people are autumn people, thinking only autumn thoughts. Whose people passing at night on the empty walks sound like rain...

Good to see them mixing it up! I like the wooden skull sign.
Thanks for posting these, Bean!! I guess I better head back over to see if this end of the country is keeping up with yours.
Excellent.
Omg this made my morning!!!!!!!! =) Thanks for posting! So heading out to Michaels to see what ours has today!
I like them!
Thanks for posting. I haven't looked at our Michaels yet. It seems slow to show up at our end of the country.
Great pictures! I like the wooden skull! Time to head over to my Michael's and see if anything is there! Thanks for posting!
Nice to see some different items this year. Definitely some nice pieces! Can't wait to hit my local store
I'm loath to question your veracity but you're sure this is Michael's? Our local branch has much of its Halloween stuff out and I didn't see any of these items when I was there earlier today. Or do they vary their selection in different parts of the country? If so, that's unusual for a chain store, but what do I know?
Yes, it was Michael's. It was the only store we went to that day.
Thanks, Bean, I guess I'll need to keep checking back at our Michael's. I may be wrong saying "much" of their Halloween is out, at least I hope that's the case. There are some items in your photos I'm interested in so I hope they'll show up at our local branch.
I saw some things I dug, mostly I just looked at the flowers and foliage and wandered around talking to myself about what I could make.
Flowers...I just buried my man card, yes I did.
A follow-up FYI. I was at our Michael's again today and unless they're pulling a fast one and keeping a lot of Halloween yet in the stockroom, our store does not and will not have most if not all of what's in Bean's photos. I don't get it and if someone can explain this to me, please do. I had posited above that perhaps the range of merchandise varies depending upon what part of the country you're in and my guess may prove right. Could be our store isn't up-scale enough (small town in Central WI)?
