Homemade Halloween Costume Ideas For Children
You can find a small group of Halloween costumes in a store around your house. However, when you consider the cost and lack of originality, homemade costumes are a more fun and oftentimes more cost-effective option. Getting your kids to help out with their homemade costumes will be a memory they’ll never forget and so much better than a store bought one.
Here are some inexpensive, homemade Halloween costume ideas that will cost little money and show lots of imagination.
A Scarecrow is a good idea a big flannel shirt with faded blue jeans with patches, stuff with straw or paper and a bucket hat and make up. You can stuff the inside with grocery bags or news paper and glue some straw to all the opening of the clothes the neck ,arms, legs and ect. A little makeup will complete your scarecrow costume.
Ghost: Ghosts are an old stand-by that never goes out of style. Use an old white sheet with holes cut for the eyes and sew a simple treat bag out of a scrap of material or a worn out pillow case. You can dress your ghost up a bit by making lips out of red lipstick and a few false eyelashes. And if you have a boy beards and mustaches would be the better way to go. You may want to create a colorful ghost by using a sheet covered with polka dots or one that is brightly colored.
Creating a clown Halloween costume is easy and fun all you need is sweat clothes and fabric pain or markers if you don’t want the clothes . You can sew on a few small pom poms buy a cheap wig with a cool wacky hat some make up and your good to go.
A hippy would be fun get an old pair of jeans add extra fabric at the bottom a bandana for you head and maybe a small sign that says make peace not war. You can even add a vest with fringe they’d be a real hippy costume that will make you soar into the past.
Nerd: Halloween is the time to dress like something completely out of character. You can dress your child as a typical nerd, complete with white shirt, pocket protectors, pants that are too short, horn-rimmed glasses, white socks and black dress shoes. Don’t forget the tape in the middle of the glasses. Make sure you use plenty of hair gel to slick back the hair and a few overly large fake teeth will be a great addition.
Finding a plastic barrel will be tricky but if you go to any car wash that has and automatic I’m sure you could ask them for one of there empty soap barrels and if you can get a hold of one cut the top and bottom out. Then paint the barrel your favorite can of soda you can also make holes in the side for arms. {With holes for arms and your head, a simple barrel can transform your child into a soda can.}
Your child can be the hit of your block or at the neighborhood Halloween party if you use a little imagination and create special homemade costumes out of inexpensive, household items.
Like the commercials say “The memory of your child in a costume you made together”… priceless.
