Homemade Halloween Costume Tips
Before we get to the epic list of ideas, here are some tips that will help you before you order your supplies.
Save Your Boxes
There are a lot of costumes you can make with leftover cardboard boxes! Save them and use them as you make homemade costumes. They are free and don’t require any sewing.
Ask Kids For Help
This can be a happy and wonderful time to create memories with your kiddos. Let them cut, glue, and paint right along with you. If the costume requires sewing, teach them how to use the machine.
Consider Car Space
If you are going to transport your child somewhere, try to pick a costume that fits in the car. (My mind instantly goes to the paper mache octopus in the movie Love Actually). There are tons of comfortable Halloween costumes you can make that will also fit in your car without any issues.
Make Costumes In Layers
Since you never quite know what the weather will do, it’s best to plan a costume that has layers you can add and remove easily. Long sleeves, jackets, pants, hats and gloves are all items you should include in the final look.
Here you go! Check out these cute, fun, and cheap homemade Halloween costumes! Read through the list and then click through to the full tutorials. Happy crafting!
