GOTH LOLITA PUNK BEDROOM & HOME DECORATION TIPS! SIN IN LINEN: SEXY BEDDING, ANIMAL PRINT APRONS, SKULL PILLOWS.
It’s the holidays, and I’m in Goth Martha Stewart mode! Let me share some easy ways to add a touch of Sin to your home decor.
The poster in the middle is a drawing of Seba and me, by Alice and the Cat (remember her Tokyo exhibit that we hosted)?
When I’m in Japan, I collect Goth and Jrock flyers. Stick them up, and your bland wall has turned cyber-glam.
You can achieve the same effect without flying to Japan. Simply print your favorite J-Goth photos in color, and arrange the prints on your wall.
I need to get rid of my boring bedsheets. But there’s nothing remotely pirate-punk in department stores.
Fortunately, I found an online shop that caters to us spooky kids. Sin In Linen stocks dark, flirty home goods. Help me decide between the above shower curtains: Rococo, skulls, black glitter!
My cat, Basil Farrow, votes for animal print sheets.
I prefer the skull pillows. But there’s something for every subculture; the Bedding includes pin-up girls, tattoos and spiderwebs.
The sheet sets are a good deal. My favorites are Raven’s Dream and Voodoo Bones.
How cute (and deadly) are these kitchen aprons? There are matching gloves and towels too.
Sin In Linen is a small woman-owned and operated business, so I feel good about supporting them. The Holiday gift guide has more ideas for darkly decorating your home.
Did you find these alternative / Gothic home decoration hints helpful? Will you be redecorating over the holidays? Please feel free to share your own tips in the comments!

I have to ask, is the vampire and girl poster in your first pic from anything in particular? I really like the drawing style of the artist. Thanks! ^_^

Basil is my favorite part of your room! I like the skull & bones pillow cover too! But basil could be a pillow ^_^
Awww yes, he is the softest pillow!
Great Room! Basil is always my favorite! Where you find the poster in the middle?

My bedroom is very similar xD I just have a bunch of Cure magazine pages all over my walls~
nice!
Love the pink leopard print bedding set! I’m also partial to the Rococo shower curtain, it’s a very nice base for an elegant bathroom scheme that’s easy to add onto.
I have black and white zebra print bedding that I like to pair with pieces from a solid neon pink set. Though it pairs very well with just about any solid color. I think any sensible woman should have a complete zebra bedding set!
I am leaning towards the rococo too :)
maybe you can get a zebra apron to match!
I’m totally considering it XD hahaha
yayyy
So I came across this website on tumblr and immediately thought it would be one of the websites you would recommend to your followers for clothing and etc. One of the dresses and handbags looked as if it was from Sourpuss. Anyways you’ve probably heard of it already since you go all over the place but in case you haven’t then here is the link..http://deadgorgeousclothing.com.au/
Love it! XD
:D there’s a photo of you on the other wall (not pictured), from a Mess flyer
U are awesome! I’m always looking for new ways to decorate my room, and dark decorating is not as common. Thanks! : 3 <3
Yayy I’m so glad!
Oo, those linens look NICE! I’ve got a purple and black flock baroque-inspired set and an all black flock baroque-inspired set as my bed linen for my vampire boudoir already, so I’m not sure their bed sets would match the style of my room (all purple-black-silver faux-historic anachronistic vampireness, much to my minimalist rivethead/industrial partner’s dismay…) , but oh! Those cushions and aprons are lovely <3 I am going to HAVE to get a goth apron! They're fabulous <3 Your wallpaper-y idea with the posters is snazzy. I like it better in the photo where they're prints with white borders, looks very artsy :) I've got a pile of flyers from London that I'm going to mount onto the board of a clip-frame as a souvenir of all the wonderful alternative-ness there as I don't think I could deal with a whole wall like that, personally.
Ooooh I can imagine your boudoir… gorgeous!
I’ve done my kitchen out like that!
This is an awesome company! I love my knife curtains and dish towels
Yes, they are lovely!
OMG I LOVE IT!! LOL All of it! I would love to deck out my kitchen or bathrooms with stuff like this!
It takes a while to get it together, but you can always start now!
So finally, a peak at the boudoir of La Carmina. Ooh la la.
For a split second I thought the model at the bottom pic was you.
Hehe not quite :)
You know…. my wife and I mostly admire this stuff from afar (at 50-something we just pick subtle elements to add to our daily garb and home to worry our peers), but I’m impressed at the extreme variety of ways in which you manage to keep your self relevant to fans of lolita/perky/kawaii goth. To borrow a phrase from Japan, thanks for all the hard work.
Brad, thank you. I really appreciate your words. :)
I vote for the skulls shower curtain! :D
Oh and thanks for the link to Sin In Linen. I was looking for something like this as well. :3
Glad you like it!
Awesome!
All the beds in my home have Sin on them,the newest addition is “Raven”. I also added the Raven Shower curtain in Master Bath and have gone with the black and white coloring.
Love it!
I’m sorry it’s actually “Raven’s Dream”….
Ooooh looks great!! :)
Love that bedding.
The cat on the bed is the best part :)
I just want to hug him
Love the prints!I was looking for this knowledge. Just so you know I found your web site when I was searching for blogs like mine, so please check out my site sometime and leave me a comment to let me know what you think.
Awesome your website
