Kids Halloween Costumes
There is a large variety of Halloween costumes that are sold in the stores in your neighborhood. But if you think about the price and lack of originality it would be better to choose homemade costumes – very often it is better solution – they are more fun and you will pay less. If you include your children in making the costumes, the results will be worth more than any bought costume. Here you can find some easy homemade and cheap Halloween costume ideas – all you need is little money and your imagination.
Ghost: Ghosts will never go out of style. You can use a white sheet – cut holes for the eyes and sew a treat bag out of a scrap of material or worn out pillow. You need to dress your ghost up – make lips of red lipstick and some false eyelashes. You can also draw a beard and moustache with markers. If you want to make a color ghost just use sheet with dots or some other colored sheet.
Clown: You can create a nice clown with sweat clothes, decorated with fabric paint and markers. Sew on some pom poms, use a cheap wig with colorful, large hat and if you want stuff the clothing with fabrics (but if you need a restroom, probably the fabric will be a problem)
Scarecrow: To make a great scarecrow all you need is a large flannel shirt, some straw and old discolored jeans with patches. Put some plastic bags under the jeans and shirt and leave a little straw to hang out of the jeans and skirt. To complete the scarecrow costume put on some make-up.
Hippy: Put on a shirt and discolored jeans with holes in the knees and you will become a hippy from the 1960s. To have authentic looking hippy costume just combine with a headband, a ponytail wig and a jacket or vest covered in fringe. You will have the best looking hippy costume.
Nerd: Halloween is coming – it is time to find a costume and to dress like something totally out of character. Your child will look like a nerd if puts on a white shirt, pocket protectors, short pants, glasses, socks and black shoes. For a true nerd appearance tape one corner of the glasses. Use plenty of gel to make the hair stay slicked back. It will be great to add some large fake teeth.
Soda Can: You have to find a plastic barrel large enough to hold your child and then cut a hole in the bottom. Paint the barrel the colors of your favorite soda sold in cans. Then make holes for the arms and the head and this simple barrel will transform your child in a nice soda can.
If you use your imagination and create a costume out of cheap and household items for your children they will be the hit at the neighborhood Halloween party. It is easy, quick and more over – it is fun.
