You can always count on Trader Joe’s to have some of the most delicious grocery products out there, but they’re also getting on the home goods train. The next time you head to your local store, you need to pick up some of their colorful sugar skull succulents that are on shelves just in time for Halloween (though frankly, I would keep these out year ’round).
- If you want something different out of your decorations, these are great. Skulls are notorious around Halloween, but sugar skulls are a major symbol of Day of the Dead (DÃa de los Muertos), a Mexican holiday in which families welcome the spirits of their dead relatives. The bright, beautiful colors are a celebration of life and they look pretty cool too!
- If you’re not into creepy stuff, sugar skulls are the answer. The vibrant colors and the meaning behind these special decorations allow you to celebrate autumn in a way that’s a little more positive and uplifting, which is always welcome, especially right now!
- Trader Joe’s sugar skull succulents come with their own plant. It’s a live plant as well, meaning if you take care of it, it’ll stay with you for many years to come. Thankfully, succulents don’t take too much work to keep going, so it’s a perfect low-maintenance plant.
- Head to your local store to pick yours up. Trader Joe’s is selling the sugar skull succulents for $9.99 each and given how popular these things seem to be on social media, they’re likely going to sell out soon. That means you’ll have to be quick to make sure you get your hands on one (or a dozen – they’re so pretty)! They’re not just great for autumn but for all year long. Plus, think of all the compliments you’ll get when people are over your place?
