What are some good decorating ideas for a Gothic/Fantasy theme party?
It's going to be a dress-up costume theme party. Think dark and dreamy. I need ideas for decorating (not expensive). If you still don't understand the theme, it's like fantasy, only not frilly and girly, more dark and evil. But not necessarily evil, just... dark. I may hav a fog machine I can borrow, or buy if I have to. It's also a dance party, so my basement where the dancing is will be the main focus of the illusionary decorating. It will have a strobe light.

- First i would try and get decorations which are colours like black white purple etc maybe some coloured lights? also baloons and streamers look rad and its always funny when someone steps on a baloon lol
- Candles, but make sure they are out of the way and secured. You don't want anyones swooshing sleeves or hair to catch fire. You can get attractive votive holders fairly inexpensively if you have no holders for tapers. Check the craft store for black or purple silk flowers. Fairy lights are always good for mood lighting- the purple sold at Halloween are best, but at this time of year you can get clear or red ones that will work for Goth. Black tulle, available at a fabric store, is cheap and good for draping over mirrors, doorways or whatever. Get some dead branches, spray paint them black, wrap the fairy lights around them, drape tulle over them. Check all your friend's Halloween decor stashes for ravens, owls and bats and hang/sit them around. Hope you have fun!
- sounds cool.. i've no idea currently.. but i suggest that you go to some gothic communities to get the inspiration.. like Gothicsoulmate.com .. you will get many ideas if you post this topic there.. good luck.. ^_^
