Blow molds

Vintage blow molds are hot commodities on social media marketplaces and eBay. But if you don’t want to shell out serious cash for vintage, look for new versions with bright colors and vintage styles. Here are some of our favorites.

Ghost

If you love the vintage blow molds you find on eBay and elsewhere the Union blow molds line is what you’re looking for. This ghost is so sweet and has the pumpkin and ghost thing going on, so you don’t need to buy two things.

Pumpkin

It’s a little different, and super spooky. This lighted pumpkin blow mold is black with a light that changes colors through the night.

If you’re the traditional type, this blow mold marries the best of the classic Halloween look and fiber optic options.

Skull

This skull is enormous and will be a cool centerpiece to any Halloween or Dia de los Muertos display.
