Danny's Trix and Kix in Spring TX!!

By
Real Estate Agent with Results Realty


Danny's Trix and Kix is located in Spring TX at the corner of FM 2920 and Meadowhill. (between I-45 and Falvel)

Halloween is of course their busy time of the year as you can see by the full parking lot. I had to drive around the store twice to find a place to park.

They both rent and sale costumes and have all the accessories to go with your costume including wigs, beard's, masks, eyelashes, boas, scarves, makeup, hats etc. They have sizes from infants to plus sizes.

They also have a large gift selection. They have over the hill gifts, novelties and gag gifts.

With a large selection of theatrical supplies this is the place to go if you are in the theater.  They have a large selection of make up etc. for stage productions.

If you are interested in magic they have a large magic trick and prank selection.

As you can see they are more than just a Halloween store. A few years ago we were late to get some patriotic items just before a 4th of July party and thought of them as a last resort. They still had a large selection of items and we were able to get the patriotic decorations that we wanted.

 They have been continually in business since 1976. Isn't that incredible! That means that they went through the oil bust of the late 1980's here in Houston and stayed in business. We moved here in 1996 and I could tell they had been there for a while but I had no idea how long until I asked today. 

I had asked them if I could take pictures inside their store but some of their costumes have restrictions that don't allow picture taking. I can understand that as they have a unique selection of costumes. They have a large selection of costumes in their windows so I had to content myself with window shopping (lol).

 They are obviously doing something right!

SUSAN, It is the perfect place for that perfect Halloween outfit.

MELISSA, I love these Mom & Pop businesses that have a specility and make it through the long haul.

ELIZABETH, They do have a fun pranks section!

GEORGE, I have to be honest I'm not wild about dressing up for Halloween.  Now I have a young adult daughter who is just the opposite. 

WILLIAM, I love a business like this that makes it through thick and thin.  Can you imagine a costume store in business for 34 years.  That's the same amount of time that I have been married.

Marchel - looks like a fun store. I once bought a great vintage wedding gown, added lots of black bows & made a black veil, did my makeup like elvira and was frankenstein's bride. When I became a Christian I took off all the black bows, and came as the bride of Christ!! Same gown !!

Costumes have always turned out the fun in our area!  Seems like some of the most fun is had by adults who get all dressed up and "trick" their family and friends into having more fun!

DALE, Danny's Kix and Trix is just a FUN store.  Isn't it cool that a fun specility store like this has been in business since 1976.

GARY, They were doing a BOOMING business yesterday.  I just wanted to take pictures and had a hard time finding a parking place. 

JOAN, OH MY GOSH we are sharing the same costume (LOL).

JONI, Amazingly they still seemed to have a lot of costumes so if you need one; drive on down!  We still need to meet sometimes by the way.

SHERILYN, What a cool story! We have something in common; we are sisters in Christ!

Marchel,

Wouldn't it be great if they held Magic Trick classes?  I always thought it would be a good business for someone!

Marchel - If there is one thing my family needs it is a good supplier of costumes.  It is amazing how much we do things in costumes. . .Pirate parties, weddings, etc.  I have found a consignment shop here in the greater Sacramento area, provides a great many of my needs.  

It is always great to see a business that creates a plan, that provides a way to stay in business for generations.
