If a traditional Christmas is too sugary sweet for you, try something a bit darker this year. Whether you call it Gothmas or Creepmas, there’s lots of cute Christmas decorations, accessories and gift ideas to match your mood.
Of course, your first stop should be Em & Sprout (US) who have a whole Creepmas collection. There’s lots of cute ornaments for your tree, stockings to hang up and cosy PJs, robe and slippers to wear while you open your presents.
Another must-visit is Lydia Jean Art (US) who has dozens of creepy cute designs for the holidays. This postcard set is perfect for sending to friends or adding to a gift, but there’s also gift wrap, stickers, ornaments and keychains.
Ditch the ugly Christmas sweater and pick up a kawaii hoodie from the winter holiday collection at Sugarhai (US) to keep you cosy and festive. There’s a few creepy cute designs to choose from that are also available on t-shirts and stickers (Sizes XS-5XL)
The Nightmare Before Christmas is the perfect movie to watch while decorating and The Disney Store (UK/US) has a Jack Skellington snowman plush that would make a great decoration or sofa buddy.
You just know Kuromi would be all in on Gothmas and she always adds a little bit of mischief, however sweet Sanrio’s Christmas themes are. ARTBOX (UK) have a few cute Christmas cards in stock that would also work as decorations, especially the light-up wreath!
Tired of sweet artificial scents? Burke & Hare (US) have some seasonal candles including Holiday Spirit’s pine, bergamot & hemlock. They’re all vegan, cruelty-free and handmade in small batches.
A Gingerdead House necklace by Dolly Cool (UK) is the perfect pastel accessory to finish off your outfit. There’s a brooch version too, plus Gingerdead Man and a Christmas wreath,
You can make your own Gingerdead cookies either by decorating Christmas cookies – or a whole gingerbread house! – in a darker theme or by using your Halloween cookie cutters for gingerbread with peppermint icing. They’re likely to be on sale right now too, like this fun set that’s half price at Meri Meri (UK/EU/US). You could even use my Animal Crossing spooky cookies templates.
