Creative Halloween Costume IdeasHomemade Last-Minute Costumes for Kids & Adults
Oops! The Halloween party is tomorrow and you're not ready! Fear not. Here are some creative ideas to make it seem like you planned in advance for your Halloween costume!
It happens. You meant to order a Halloween costume weeks ago and now the costume party is tomorrow... and you got nothin'. Don't worry! With just a few minutes and a few household items, you can put together an original, creative Halloween costume that will impress your friends and make you seem prepared! Creative Halloween Costume: Black Eyed PeasSo easy. So clever. Wear black pants and a white shirt. Get some black makeup cream or black eyeliner and draw a circle around one eye to look like a black eye. With a fat permanent marker or some black felt, make a huge black "P" on your chest. Pow. You're a black-eyed pea. Several people together in this creative Halloween costume look cute as well. Creative and Yummy: Smartie PantsEasy and adorable. You just can't beat a Halloween costume that doesn't involve makeup or heels! Simply stop by a grocery store or convenience store and pick up a few bags of Smarties wrapped candy.Get an old pair of jeans. Use tacky glue, clear packing tape or a box of safety pins and affix a few dozen Smarties to your jeans. Poof. You're Smarty Pants! A Good Deviled EggAnother fun, creative Halloween costume. Wear a white sweatshirt and white pants. Use yellow felt or a huge yellow marker and make a circle in the center of your chest. Get or make a pair of red horns, a red spiked tail and a pitchfork. Whammo. You're a deviled egg! A Cereal KillerThis one is easy and clever for grown-ups or older kids. Wear white sweatshirt and black pants. Go to the grocery store and buy the 8-pack of miniature cereal boxes. There are several ways to make this one happen (Krazy Glue, rolled clear packing tape), but basically you are going to affix these cereal boxes to your sweatshirt and pants (not while you're wearing them). Use a knife to 'viciously' cut open the boxes- glue some of the pieces of Fruit Loops, etc so it looks like they are spilling out of the box. You can get creative with fake blood or food coloring 'dripping' around your outfit. You should affix a knife to your shirt too. Bam. You're a cereal killer! Clever, cheap creative Halloween costume for sure! Easy Halloween Costume: Freudian SlipThis one really only works for the ladies- although it would be hilarious on a guy as well. Get a one-piece white slip and write FREUD on it with a thick black marker. Now what could be an easier Halloween costume than that?! Need more ideas?
