I see fortune in your future… Including a long skirt, sparkly top, and an empty snow globe. Pair it with some chunky jewelry and a head scarf and you’re ready for all the spirit world demands.

Love cupcakes? Then why not take the motto “you are what you eat” to the next level? Dig a hole in a basket, cover it up with some aluminum foil or colored paper, get some cotton, spray it your favorite color, and TA-DAH! You are awfully sweet.

4. Sheepish

Halloween can make everyone a little sheepish… *pun intended*

So, let the animal lover inside you take full form in this costume made from a white bathrobe, a black long-sleeve shirt, black leggings, some cotton balls, and look baaaad to the bone.

5. Mr. or Miss Cactus

The only time saying “don’t be such a prick” actually makes sense. All you need for this costume is a green top and green pants (or bodysuit if you can find one) and some toothpicks.

6. Vintage Doll

Most of us have played with the vintage dolls that need to wind up key.Just make a key out of the cardboard, attach it to your dress and you're ready to unwind!

The classic DIY Halloween costume. Throw some white long cloth over you, cut down just the eyes and get your scare on.

So, there you have it, folks. Halloween is the best excuse release the “crazy” inside and get dressed up in something truly frightastic. So, with Halloween just a few days away, pick up some materials and start imagining… The possibilities are actually endless.
