Killer costumes require a little more than a glance through your closet, or at the very most, a quick trip to the drug store. So what will you be? Luckily, I’ve got some ideas for you that shouldn’t take too much work:
1. So this might be a little farfetched, but, if you have curly hair, this is a great costume idea. My friend Ashley (thanks for letting me use your picture) was a lion and took advantage of her wonderful curly blonde locks to mimic a lion’s mane. Add some face paint, makeup, throw together some ears and voila!
3. Remember Twister? Take the plastic Twister game mat and hold it up next to your body. Wrap the dress around you and determine how much of the plastic you need to create a simple dress. Wrap the mat snugly against your body, but use enough fabric so that you can move easily. In addition to determining the width, decide on the length you want.
Or, find a white, inexpensive, simple dress or white clothes and buy different colors of felt. Cut the felt into large circles and use glue to stick them to your outfit. Buy a headband and use glue to attach the spin board.
4. For all of you beer pong fans, use cardboard to make a table. Glue on cups and carry around ping pong balls – easy enough!

5. An oldie but goodie… Where’s Waldo? Throw on some circular glasses, a tossle hat and a striped shirt.
Lastly, if you’re not in the mood to be creative, costumes are on sale now since you waited so long so you can probably pick one up for much less than what the rest of your friends paid for theirs. Happy hunting and Happy Halloween, slackers!
