Inspiration for Easy DIY Halloween Costumes

My kids love trick-or-treating. This is probably due to the fact that because their mother is a chocoholic, we can’t have ANY chocolate in the house for most of the year because she can’t be trusted to eat it in moderation.

So, every year we join in the drama, er I mean joy, of choosing Halloween costumes so my children can go beg for candy from strangers. I don’t know if costumes have gotten more expensive the older I get, or if it just seems that way because I have more kids to buy them for.

Whatever the reason, I have a hard time shelling out a bunch of cash for something that is only going to be worn once just so my kids can get candy that I could buy for much less than the price of a costume. Thanks to the creativity of others, I don’t have to. Here are several inexpensive and easy DIY Halloween costumes.

Criteria for Making the List

My criteria for selecting costume ideas to include in this collection was – could I, with my limited craft ability, make these without any help? If they are on the list, the answer is a resounding “YES!”.

Now, I’m not saying all of my attempts at these costumes have turned out as cute as the originals (featured on the next page), but I have been able to do recreate them. And trust me, if I can do it, YOU can too.
