Make Your Own Halloween Costume

The easiest way to make your own Halloween costume is to buy a few inexpensive accessories and then use clothing you already have.

Angel
If you want to be an angel for Halloween, pull on a long silky bathrobe (over regular clothes, of course) and then pull on the wings and halo you bought. You can make a robe as well using an old white sheet. Fold it in half, cut out the rough outline of the shape, sew or glue it together and you’re in business! When you’re dresses as an angel, don’t forget the glitter on your face!

Cat
Becoming a black cat is simple. Invest in a black face pencil and a pair of black ears. A collar might make it rather authentic as well. Dig through your closet to find an old leotard or at the minimum a tight pair of black leggings and a black shirt. Pull on your ears, paint on a nose and whiskers and you’re set. Of course, if you can snag a cat tail to attached to the back of your outfit, you’ll be in even better luck.
