Are you scrambling to piece together a last minute costume for the kids this year?
No fear here are 13 last minute life saving Halloween costumes for the kids!
- Jellyfish -Start with an umbrella and a sweat suit. Make the jelly’s eyes out of construction paper and its tendrils from ribbon. For the finishing touch, attach battery powered lights inside the umbrella to make your jellyfish glow.
- Pop It Fidget- Start with a large cardboard box and paint stripes with craft paint. Using hot glue, attach small plastic balls — think ball-pit-sized balls — or small balloons onto the box.
- S'more- Cut a large piece for the cracker and a smaller piece that’s painted brown for the chocolate. Glue the two pieces together, cut a hole in the center, and use ribbon to create suspenders. A white shirt and tutu becomes the marshmallow. Attach a small piece of cardboard to a headband and make the lines of the graham cracker with brown marker.
- Cow- Paint black spots on white pajamas and pair it with a red bandana or a white hat. Attach pacifiers to the belly for utterly cute udders.
- Scuba Diver- The scuba diver’s air tank is made from plastic bottles, paint and black tubing. A black sweat suit becomes a wetsuit and strips of duct tape add pops of color to the costume. Make the fins from felt, and add a pair of goggles to finish the look.
- Bubble Bath- To make the tub, use a plastic container or cardboard box and cut out the bottom. Make suspenders out of ribbon and create bubbles with small clear and white balloons.
- Ghost- Give this classic costume a fun and creative upgrade by attaching the sheet to an umbrella.
- Miss Universe- Grab a party dress and attach pictures of planets, stars and constellations. Finish with a crown, a bouquet of flowers and a sash made from an old T-shirt.
- Mario and Luigi- Create this dynamic duo with red and green T-shirts, matching hats, white felt and a hot glue gun.
- Bank Robbers- The whole family can get in on this look with black pants, black and white striped shirts, and masks made out of felt. You can DIY the striped shirts by painting black lines on white shirts.
- Georgie from "It"- Pull off this spooky costume with a yellow raincoat, red balloon and a serious face.
- Mummy- Start with an inside-out gray or white sweat suit and rip up strips of white T-shirts or bed sheets. Using glue, attach the strips of material to the sweat suit. The best part of this costume is the messier you get, the better.
- Deer - A brown leotard and craft paint can become a darling deer. Use a headband, flowers and felt to create the deer’s antlers and cotton to make a fluffy tail.
