Here are some more cute ideas. Take a box ad tape plastic
cups to it. In this version they cut holes in the boxes and put the cups thou
them and taped them from the inside. They painted the box blue and now you have
a Lego.
This is another cute idea for girls. A paper doll is a cute
idea. You take a large cardboard box and cut out the outfit. Remember to
include the tabs. You can always use yarn or sting to tape to the back to hang
around your neck. Be careful if you do this for toddlers as they like to pull
things around their neck. The next one is a costume of raining cats and dogs.
Take an umbrella and hang stuffed cats and dogs to it. Put on a rain coat or
buy a rain poncho at the dollar store.
Now who remembers Home Improvement show. It was a Tim Allen
show back in the day. You never saw the neighbor Wilson. He was always peaking
over the fence. This is a great idea of using popsicles stick or even getting
real pieces of wood to do this. Don't forget the hat as that is just important
to the costume as the fence.
This is a simple costume when you don't want to were one. It
is also a great one if you are a computer programmer. Get a tee shirt and Error
404: Costume not found. Great idea.
Cute couple idea, lets map it. We have all tried to use mapquest
and other programs to find how to get to places. The head pieces look easy
enough to in using cardboard but the shirts are a little more difficult. I
guess you can use yellow crepe paper and cut and write street names and you can
look thru magazines for places and tape it on the shirt.
Now here is a classic for all your horror nuts out there.
Here is one of the scariest scenes. Who didn't get chills when Jack Nicholson
character took the ax to the door in the Shining. I have only seen bits and
parts of the show as it scared the heck out of me. It is a simple costume
that could be made out of cardboard or scraps of wood. Remember if you used
wood make sure the edges are sanded properly as you don't want any splinters.
Here is another classic horror movie, Alfred Hitchcock's The
Birds. You can get the birds or ravens from the Dollar store or any toy store.
The challenge is getting them attached to your outfit. You can buy a jacket or
dress from the Thrift store and cut holes to put the birds feet in and then
tape it from the inside.
So there you go, a few more ideas for Halloween. I hope these will give you a few ideas. Enjoy and Happy Halloween.
