Halloween Costumes Made Easy: How To Be Spooky For Less

There are many contests for the best Halloween costumes October comes. Mothers and kids all work together in order to bag the grandest prize or just simply to receive the most goodies into their Halloween bags. Either way, Halloween is really a fun time to don the cutest, most hilarious, and the scariest outfits for that special day. It is a time to have an excuse to be somebody else (or make fun of somebody else).

It is an excellent time to be somebody else for a night. Shopping malls and specialty stores fill up their racks of various Halloween costumes. And many people end up with the same costumes. Nothing is worse than finding out you bought the same costume as your friends. Another problem is that if you do not have enough money to go to another expensive store for something unique, you may end up with what everyone else is wearing. So, why not look at stuff in your own home instead?

Free those creative juices. Grab a scissor and glue. Then go make that cool Halloween costume. Here are just a few of those cool and easy DIY Halloween Costumes… (you can enhance it more yourself).

Ghost In YouBored with the same old white sheet draped over you every Halloween? Try dressing it up! Put a little lipstick around the mouth area. Put on fake lashes around slit cut for the eyes. Find plastic earrings and glue them by the ear areas. Cool long necklaces drape around the neck will make your ghost extra stylish as well. As for the boys, a bandanna around the head or any hats will give your otherwise boring ghost some character.

Tourists On VacationFor boys, wearing the typical Hawaiian shirt and shorts can pass as any tourist. As for the girls, they can wear a t-shirt (with the name of a city on it) and match it up with shorts and sandals. However, one can make this look better by putting accessories. Boys can bring along a camera sling around their necks, while girls can bring along a big transparent bag with maps, book, bikini, and sun block lotion in it. Straw hats and big luggage finish off a tourist-look. Another way to make it recognizable is to spray or paint your body with a temporary brown-colored body paint to get that tanned tourist-y look.

Grandma and Grandpa WannabesOne can easily borrow his grandmas or grandpas clothes to get this look (or check out old clothes from the attic). Boys can get old flannel shirts, big old pants, and a walking cane. Girls can put on an old, ruffled-style dress, old and thick stockings, oxford shoes and bring along a large purse. Both can style their hair using temporary hair color (silvery white, of course), or they can just dust it with a little bit of baby powder or flour. To have that aged look on their faces, apply egg whites smoothly over face.

Straight out from the Grocery Store lookGet a big box from the garage that is right for your body size. Cut holes on the sides and the bottom (for your arms and legs). Paint the box with your favorite cereal brand. Then use black or colored tights, gloves and a wig to look more fun!

Mother NaturePrim up your old leotards with anything from the garden leaves, twigs and a couple of flowers. Glue them on to your leotards. Put on a face mask, and later you can attach some small leaves and flowers around it to go with the rest of the outfit. You can also paint your body with the color of nature.

Be the hit of a party for less! Bring out your creative juices and use whatever you have around your home. Nevertheless, you do well for our planet by recycling some of your stuff. There are a lot of interesting DIYs for your halloween costumes, you just have to free your imagination.
