    Last minute costume ideas for guys?

    My boyfriend got the night off for Halloween last minute and needs a good costume. Any ideas?

    1.  Take a cardboard box that's big enough for him to wear (you can buy these at Home Depot or Lowe's), paint the entire thing white (use spray paint since you're in a hurry), then add dots on each side like dice.  Cut out arm holes and one for his head, and cut off the bottom flaps, and you're good to go.

    2.  Go as a kissing booth.

      I love the dice idea. He even works as a craps dealer at a casino so that would be even more perfect. I'm going to run it by him. Thanks

      I was going to suggest a Rubik's cube; you need all the paint colors of each side, and some painter's tape to create the grid effect.  This is more time-consuming than dice, but fun to try.

    Take a plain white sheet, cut two eye holes in it, and he can go as a ghost. When Halloween is over you can patch up the holes, wash it, and use it again to sleep on.

      Actually, that idea is already on the table. He used to work a a hotel even and took home a bunch of old, mis-sized sheets, so we don't even have to bother patching it up.

    I thought this one was funny --->  Three-headed person - Blow up two balloons and draw faces on them. Attach them to your shoulders and give yourself and the balloons similar "collars," like neckties or necklaces.


    Farmer - If someone in your house has a flannel shirt and a handkerchief/bandanna, you've got the basic materials. Jeans would work with this costume, but overalls are best. Carry a shovel or pitchfork if it's safe for you to do so.

    found them at   http://www.essortment.com/halloween-cos … 52269.html


    GOOD LUCK...HAVE FUN!

    -go get a wrestlers mask, and wear layered, bright color clothes
    -A lumberjack :flannel, work boots and a fur hat if you have one
    - Gangster: either dress street gangster, or with  a suit, hat and cigar gangster

      I like the word plays, but he doesn't seem to go for any of them.

    Preppy. The first year I met him, my partner wore a polo and some tan pants for Halloween. Irritated and scared me because I can't stand polo's. Goth - Use black jeans, some chains, dark shoes, possibly a black jacket and color black around his eyes with eye makeup.

      The party we're going to, preppy might get him kicked out, and goth wouldn't be much of a costume. I've never seen him in a polo shirt before though.

    And the winner is... ninja. Way overdone on his part; 5 out of the last 7 costume parties he went to. Thanks for all the great ideas though, maybe next year...

    I am not commenting on your boyfriend, so please do not misconstrue, but I think most guys should consider dressing up and acting like a real man...at least for one night of the year.  :0)
