Spring is here! Time to clear out the cobwebs, open the windows and welcome in the sunshine.
HAHAHA...just kidding, Halloween friends. We all know the cobwebs are permanent decorations around here... (I might say yes to some sunshine though - even in Texas, it's been a downright dreary winter.)
If the Marie Kondo bug didn't bite you, there's a good chance the spring cleaning one will. When the weather starts to warm up and the days get longer, I find myself doing a little extra sprucing around the Spooky Little Apartment.
And, like everything else in my life, I may as well Halloweenify it, right?
Today I'm sharing a few ways you can do a little Halloween spring cleaning. The first half of today's post includes some fun - and spooky - cleaning products...including a few you may not have known you can buy year-round. The second half of today's post? Some gorgeous Halloween items you'll need to spruce up your living space.
So let's get to it - time to Halloween spring clean!
Halloween Spring Cleaning Products
Because Halloweenifying your cleaning products makes it more fun to actually, y'know, clean...right?
Mrs. Meyers Multi-Surface Cleaner, Pumpkin Scent
If you're a Target devotee, you probably know Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day products come in pumpkin scent in the fall...but did you know you can buy it year-round on Amazon? This is the perfect way to Halloweenify your spring cleaning. GET IT HERE
Mrs. Meyers Hand Soap, Apple Cider Scent
Maybe apple cider is more your fall style? Grab a bottle of this scented hand soap on Amazon all year long. GET IT HERE
Activated Charcoal Soap Bar
Activated charcoal is such an easy way to make anything feel more gothic and spooky. Why not add this bar to any sink where you regularly wash your hands? GET IT HERE
Vegan Pumpkin Spice Laundry Detergent
Oh yes, you read that correctly - PUMPKIN. SPICE. LAUNDRY. DETERGENT. And this one from Etsy is vegan to boot! Now your clothes can smell like your favorite scent all year long. I can't think of a more fun excuse to do one of my least favorite chores. GET IT HERE
Dish Scrubbie in Pumpkin
I may not like doing laundry, but I enjoy washing dishes. (Good thing since the Spooky Little Apartment doesn't have a dishwasher.) This reusable dish scrubbie isn't pumpkin scented, but it's the perfect shade of orange to remind me of pumpkins! GET IT HERE
Halloween Dish Scrubbie
And as long as we're having fun with dishwashing...here are a ton of options in Halloween shapes. GET IT HERE

Room Spray
If you need to clear out negative energy in your home, this spray is just the thing. I think this is a great alternative to sage, it includes three of my favorite scents, and it's made in small batches. GET IT HERE
Halloween Spring Cleaning Decor
Does your home decor need a little Halloween spruce? (Answer: yes, yes it does...)
Candles by Lichen and Limestone
One of my favorite things to do after cleaning the Spooky Little Apartment is light a candle (shhh...don't tell my landlord - they're technically outlawed in our lease...) and fill my space with my favorite scents.
While this particular scent from Lichen and Limestone (named for the lichen that often grows on limestone grave markers) has been retired, there are tons more available on their site. SHOP NOW
Spring Ghost Throw Pillow from Odd Like Us
I need another throw pillow like I need another hole in my head, but I am obsessing over Odd Like Us' spring designs. The ghost and bats are my fave, but the haunted house is a very close second. GET IT HERE
Geometric Skull Planter from Poured and Crafted
If you have a green thumb, you're likely excited to plant new things to grow. How perfect would this skull be with flowers growing out the top all spring? GET IT HERE
Haunted House Welcome Mat from Nine to Wine Design
Live in a haunted house? I would totally put this out all year long! Esp. since, y'know, I actually live in a haunted building... GET IT HERE
Spider Web Suncatcher from Atlas Glass Company
Suncatchers always feel like the perfect addition to a sunny window in the spring and summer. This beautiful rainbow spider web would look gorgeous in your home. GET IT HERE
Macabre Tumbler Set from Counter Culture Design
Spring equals patio weather, and these gorgeously gothic glass tumblers are perfect for enjoying lemonade, iced tea, or—if you're like me—your favorite cocktail. GET THEM HERE
DIY Skull Adirondack Chair Pattern from The Winfield Collection
And if you're going to enjoy the patio...you might as well enjoy it in style. This is only a pattern for the chair, but if you're feeling extra ambitious (or know someone who could make this for you!) I think it's the perfect outdoor chair for a Halloween lover. GET IT HERE
