Being Gothic- Home Decor
Decor:
|
Beautiful sconces are a great way to light up a room. The retro styling lends itself well to Gothic decor. |
|
|
|
Catalog City has a great selection of very unique candle holders. |
|
Candlemart is another place online to find some great candle items. |
|
This is a unique idea for a fire place. Instead of creating a fire, put a holder, like this one, in the fire place and light candles. |
|
Or if you prefer, decorate the outside of the fireplace with a lovely screen such as this one. This is back to Catalog City again. |
|
Screens are an awesome way to decorate whether you use metal or fabric. |
|
If you've got a ton of money to throw around freely, this is the way to go. I love Egyptian things. If I could have this piece to decorate my living room, I would be so happy. Anyhow, it's not likely many of you are going to be buying anything like this any time soon, but I had to share. We can dream can't we? |
Statuary and other Accessories:
|
Choose images for your home that reflect your dark personality. Like faeries? How about the Grim Reaper? Whatever you choose can add a little life to an empty shelf or side table. |
|
If you could see this whole picture, I know you would love it. In fact, click through to the link and you can see it there. This is a gargoyle sitting on a coffin. I'm really big on gargoyles. And remember when you keep them in your home to point them towards doors or windows. They will protect you. |
Art:
|
Many things can be framed to create your own art. Postcards in frames can be grouped. Or a collectable sheet of stamps. But I suggest that if you're framing stamps you have it professionally done so you don't destroy them. |
Posters:
|
Posters always come in handy when decorating and showing your musical tastes. Dead Can Dance posters can be found by clicking on the picture. This is a very cool poster, but others can also be found at the site. |
|
|
Bauhaus is always a basic staple of the Gothic lifestyle.. Find their posters by clicking the picture. This site has some other choices as well. |
|
Alchemy: Gothic - Dragons Of The Runering
|
 |
|
|
Classic horror posters are a nice addition to any room. Catalog City has a good selection. |
Bedding:
|
Fun for a child's room, but I think I'll get one for my bed. Be comfy while watching TV. Get a hug from Dracula. |
