So, we are throwing yet another theme party, probably in late July. It's a Downton Abbey theme. I need suggestions for decor and such. There are tons of sites I'll use too, but I'd like some ideas from folks about what they might like.

The only thing I know about Downton Abbey

1. Look at a thrift store or make your own costumes
2. The music for that show is wonderful so you could go to itunes or any other media source and download the soundtrack and play it through out the party

(I love this idea)

Drinks served in teacups with saucers as if everyone's sipping tea -- even if it's beer.

Toy hunting dogs/ dog that looks like the one in the show, sitting by a fireplace.

Somebody dressed as a butler serving food and drinks.

A crashed vintage car with a dead man lying beside it on the front lawn (probably not entirely practical) :P
