We are going to have a Gothic Christmas!

Christmas is coming and all is getting fullfilled with christmas decorations! There's lights, trees, bows, etc. everywhere and it's time for us too to start thinking how to celebrate Christmas, possibly in a gothy way. So how to goth-up your Christmas?

If you are one of those goths (like me) who doesn't like those feisty happy glitterish glamorous decorations then you could try to gothify your decorations with lace appliques or by using darker colors. For example, last year I put black and purple christmas balls on my tree. Came out beautiful! This year I want to try to buy a black tree and put red bows all over it. I think red and black is perfect for christmas time! I usually do not use bright colored lights but prefer using those which resemble candle light and create a warmer sober and darker atmosphere. Also last year I matched wrapped the gifts with light violet wrapping paper and black bows! :D Looked amazing and also matched the tree decor :P

Another thing that I do on Christmas to give it a more gothic atmosphere is putting the Nightmare Before Xmas soundtrack on on loop! xD (Especially that "Kidnap the Sandy Claws" track revisited by KoRn... ♥)

Other rockin' Christmas songs are all the classics christmas songs revisited by the Twisted Sisters. \m/ And the Within Temptation's "Gothic Christmas" song of course!

Amazing Goth make up idea for Christmas!

How do you usually goth-up your christmas? :)
