Costumes! Costumes! Costumes!

One last chance…..

Today is Halloween, and tonight is the Halloween costume party.  No matter what time your local costume shop closes, there will be somebody pounding at the door five or 10 minutes after closing time, begging and pleading to get in to make a quick last minute purchase. 

Will that be you?

At this stage, you might want to just take an old sheet, cut a couple of eye holes in it and go as your favorite ghost. 

You might want to wrap that sheet around you, and go as a Roman politician or a Roman goddess.

It’s creative time.  As in earlier posts, put something, anything together and give it a name.  Remember an earlier post, if you can name it, you have a costume.

HORRIBLE HALLOWEEN !!!!!!

Another good, last minute idea for a costume, as submitted by a pair of unknown authors.

“i dont have any costumes because i decides to go trick or treating today on halloween and now theres no time.. but does anyone know any ideas for a 14 yr old grl for a home made costume(besides the pj costume thing lol) like should i paint my face a ladybug or something?”

“Ask your folks if you can borrow the laundry basket. Cut a hole out for you to step into- wearing it like a dress. It’ll be ruined, so ask first! Then pin some dryer sheets to your shirt in a random fashion. Then a few socks. Pinning them to the shirt and the bottom of your dress so they flow down. Then put sn empty botte of bleach and/or fabric softener in the basket, along with the empty box the dryer sheets came in, as well as an empty laundry soap bob. Walah!!! You’re, guess what…………… dirty laundry! Have fun and Happy Halloween!”

A question and answer from two unknown authors. Hope the sources listed are good, as I have no knowledge of them myself.  That last sentence is called a disclaimer.

Question: “I would like something unique and not slutty but still beautiful. If anyone knows how to make easy at home costumes please i need some tips. I would love to do something earthy like Mother Earth or Mother Nature. I saw some beautiful mid evil looking Mother Earth costumes on line but they are kind of pricey and id be afraid to buy online. Maybe i could buy an earthy colored, mid evil looking costume that isn’t too expensive and add some fall leaves and flowers? IDK Any ideas?”

It was a dark and stormy night…. 

The rain is pouring, and gusts of wind.  The sky is black with hundreds, perhaps thousands of lightning strikes….

A clap of thunder…then another, and another…

The old church clock ticks off the last few seconds before midnight…..nine…eight…seven…six…five…four…three…two…

Scared yet?  Well you better be if you haven’t gotten your Halloween costume for that Hallowed Eve only three days hence.

What?  You don’t even have a Halloween costume idea?

Perhaps a review of this site will give you a few last minute ideas.  So wait not; hie to your nearest costume shop or…….. prepare for everlasting doom….!!!!!
