Halloween costume ideas for next year…
when i put out the word that i needed some last minute Halloween costume ideas i had no idea how many crazy and fun suggestions you guys were going to come up with. it was a hard call, but i ended up going as a “Cereal Killer” thanks to Russ Pait. check out the photos in my Random Fun Gallery.
there were so many other great suggestions i thought i’d paste them here for your entertainment and for ideas for next year. enjoy!

another great idea from Russ Pait:
“Dress up like a cow and act like you’re really pissed off. Tell people you have ‘Mad Cow Disease’”
a great and easy idea from Holly Thomas:
“my favorite low maintenance costume was a happy ending. i wore all black, and stuck a piece of construction paper on my butt with a smiley face on it. it got lots of smiles.” i bet it did!
a brilliant idea from my elementary school art teacher, Terry McManus:
“Ok. You take a sheet of foam board and cut a hole in it (rig it) so that your waist fits in it. or you can just put the board over your head and balance it on your shoulders.The board is cut in a circle. Staple a skirt or sheeting around the foam board…..glue some cigarettes, a small ashtry, an empty condom wrapper and a note saying “I’ll call you”, signed John on top of the foam board …table. Put a lamp shade on your head with some trim or fringe on it and voila! You are a one night stand!” i think this may be my favorite, but alas i didn’t have quite the time to pull it off this year…maybe next year!
a yummy idea from Shana Newman:
“I went as alphabet soup. I took letter stickers and put them all over my clothes. Then I put a ribbon around a ladle and wore it as a necklace.”
the funniest idea from Andrea Zulliger…
“I saw the most hilarious costume on Saturday night. The woman was “Granny Gone Wild” and she had a padded toucous and “boobs” that were in nylons…she’d flash you by lifting up the shelf bra of her tank top (under a very appropriate Granny top) and the boobs would hit the floor. Absolutely hysterical and very original.”
the most clever idea i’ve heard yet, from Cathlene Bell:
“the best last minute halloween costume idea I have is one my best friend used once. Not feeling the urge to scramble around for a mediocre costume, she simply wore normal clothes, and made a sign that said “NUDIST ON STRIKE”. It always gets people laughing!”
