Hey Loves! As Halloween is fast approaching you might be unsure of what you want to be and you don't want to go and spend a ton of money on a pre-made costume at the store. I am all about DIY costumes for cheap. You can actually be some really creative things for cheap and don't think you need to be crafty to make your own Halloween costumes.
If you aren't a creative genius or aren't sure of what you want to be you can always use Google or Pinterest to look for costume ideas. You don't have to be the usual cat or sexy devil like everyone else. You can practically create any thing you want into a costume. Here are some costumes I have created at home for myself over the years:
 |
| Navy Girl |
I was a girl in the Navy and I used used a larges men's shirt and cut/tied into a dress. I used puffy paint to write Navy and wore white heels. Simple.
 |
| Jello Shot |
I again used a large men's shirt and cut/tied into a dress. I used a white belt and hot glued 2 Jell-O shots and jello package to the front.
 |
| Wonder Woman |
This is one of my all time favorite costumes! I used a red tank top and painted the gold neck line with puff paint. I used gold foam and elastic to create the belt, wrist guards, and headband. I used iron on fabric for the stars on the blue shorts.

| Nerd |
I didn't wear this for a Halloween Costume but a friend had a White and Nerdy party. Just throw on any skirt, sweater, or white button up. Maybe add some pigtails or glasses.

| Minion |
I wore this last year and totally loved it. I used Rit Yellow dye to dye all the yellow pieces.I picked up suspenders, black head band, pipe cleaners for the hair. You can create the eyes easily with Dixie cups. I have a separate blog post on how to create this costume yourself
here.

| Cowgirl and Cat |
I obviously purchased my costume this year but I wanted to show that my friends easily were able to create costumes on a budget. For a cowgirl wear jeans or jean shorts, plaid shirt, and cowboy hat. If you want to be a cat just use any black dress or top you have and add cat ears and tail.
Hopefully these outfits gave you some more ideas for Halloween Costumes. I am in the process of making mine for this year and I am planning to create a blog post for that as well! Stay tuned.
