Gore Decor



Halloween is almost here, and it’s time to pick up some gory, yet chic décor!

Stop at your local craft store to pick up some cheesecloth and burlap. The cheesecloth is a great pick to emulate cobwebs on your table linens and can be placed outdoors on stairs or statues to create a creepy vibe for trick-or-treaters.


Wouldn’t this look great on our Black Sheer with Silver Fireworks linen?

Burlap accents over a mantle can be a stylish addition to any living room. An easy at-home DIY project, this decoration can be completed with the help of the kids too: 


Once personalized with monograms and other colored accents, these accessories would complement dining room buffet table overflowing with Halloween treats anchored with Mosaic's Helix linens- available in orange, apple, blueberry and black!




Halloween is never complete without some skeleton bones! At a recent event, we added black lights, velvet burnout drapes,  embroidered skull -n- bone pillows and some Mexican painted skeletons and skulls to give this celebration a Day of the Dead vibe.


For this affair, we even had New York celebrated pastry designer extraordinaire, Sylvia Weinstock, create a show-stopping cake accented with metallic details, pearl embellishments and skulls.


If you really want a challenge, why not try to make these witches for a centerpiece in a large room? They are sure to be a crowd pleaser at a large event: 


Or, if you are cramped for time, don’t worry- there are quick fun options for you to achieve a ghostly- groove! Light up your table a sea of drippy candles can look particularly spooky at any party, especially if you take some time to print out some Halloween themed labels for the bottles. These would look especially ghastly paired with our Black Flocking Swirl linen:





One Kings Lane also offers these great skeleton placemats for your dining room table if you need some last minute embellishments for your party!
