{glitterbombing ideas ~ gateways, bridges, & doors!}


fairy door
Originally uploaded by bagaball


* Make a pile of tickets marked with locations like “fairyland”, “Avalon”, “the Moon”. Decorate appropriately. Pick a door or gate to a public building, park, or other space. Every time someone tries to pass you through the door or gate, hand them a ticket and say “You’ll need this”. Effective with or without a costume.

* Set-up an impromptu “fairy gate” between two trees using string and gauzy material hung from it. Tie the fabric back to the trunks of the trees using ribbon or leave flowing freely. Hang a sign or stake a signpost in the ground near it that says “This way to fairyland” or another whimsical place. Can also be done with holes in trees. Bonus points if you chalk sidewalks with arrows and directions leading to the door..

* At the gate to a public park post a sign that says “Beware the mommeraths”. Bonus points if you stick around in the park dressed as a mommerath. Note: can be done with any magical creature.

* Find holes in the ground, made by animals or humans. Put up a sign that says “This way to Wonderland” or a whimsical place of your choosing.

* Chalk a stretch of sidewalk in yellow. Label it “The Yellow Brick Road” or “This way to the Wicked Witch of the West”.

* Wait under a small bridge dressed as a troll or other creature. When someone gets close growl, giggle, or yell at them to get off your home. For a lighter version, bring small charms or prizes with you and randomly hand them out to people crossing the bridge.

* Chalk or post up a wooden door on a wall. Offer a prize to anyone who can open it. Bonus points if you make the door out of recycled/reclaimed materials.

* Chalk or post up a tiny wooden door on a wall. Chalk or paint tiny footsteps or animal prints along the sidewalk or down a wall towards the door. Bonus points if you make the door out of recycled/reclaimed materials.
