Any easy Halloween costume ideas?
I have to dress up to help out at my child's school on Thursday for the "Spooctacular." Any easy ideas for a quick costume?
If you look in your closet, you are going to find a lot of things. You can use. If you have a above your nee short dress. You can dress like go go girl from the 70's. For shoes you can wear boots. Then use jewelry that matches the era. You can go buy a colorful wig that matches your dress. Then , you use make up. Have fun miss amiebutchko.
Thank you erorantes! I don't always love Halloween! That is a great idea and very doable by Thursday. Thanks!
Zombie is always easy, just grab some old clothes and rip them up a bit, mess up your hair, then cover your face in splotches of dark eyeshadow. I did it last year as a very last minute costume and it actually looked a lot better than costumes I'd put a bunch of effort into.
Cat is super easy, too... just grab ears, a tail, and some face paint and wear all black. Simple and under $20.
Great ideas! I love Halloween, but sometimes its too much pressure! And you're right - too expensive! Thanks for these great, budget friendly ideas!
One Halloween I took an old sheet and cut out a bunch of over-sized holes and threw it over my head, then found a brown paper bag that I filled with some rocks. When I saw our kids I told them I was Charlie Brown! They cackled with laughter
That's very funny! Love it! And I wouldn't have to talk to anyone cuz they wouldn't know who I am!
Yep, wrote a hub to answer this, see my hub called: Easy and Inexpensive Homemade Halloween Costume Ideas for Kids or Adults
