The Best DIY Halloween Costumes

If you are anything like me, you may wait until the last minute to get yours and your kids Halloween costumes.  Maybe to the point that everything is gone from Target and you may be too cheap (like me) to spend the ridiculous amounts from the specialty Halloween stores.

This year, I vow to not wait until the last minute to start my Halloween planning! I will not be that lame person who comes to the party with the “This is my costume” t-shirt (although I do kinda like this one and may have it as a back up!)

So, back to me being a better planner! Here are some DIY Halloween costumes that I found and loved! Some may be more involved than others, but hey, at least they are all super cute!

Alan NAILED it with his Carl from UP DIY Halloween Costume! It honestly doesn’t get much better than this! Check out @fozzcook on Instagram for more great pics of his “Dug”, I mean Cricket!

DIY Robot Halloween costume from Paging Fun Mums – who doesn’t love a robot? Some silver paint, a box and some flexible ducts are the basics for this cute costume!

Ken & Barbie in a box couples costume(if anyone know the original source, please let me know so I can link it!)

Baby Clark Kent – (if anyone know the original source, please let me know so I can link it!)

Toy Army Man from Wild Ink Press – this may get a little messy! I wouldn’t let your child sit on the couch while wearing this (or touch the walls….or anything!!)

DIY Weatherman Costume! (if anyone know the original source, please let me know so I can link it!). This is a great last minute outfit for kids or adults.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s (I just found out that this picture isn’t a DIY, but can be purchased here on ETSY at this FABULOUS store Atutudes – check out the rest of their amazing work!! !)

Thing 1 & Thing 2 from How Does She – this totally cracks me up. First of all the kids are adorable! You can find the wig tutorial from the link above or you can buy one here. There are also a ton of Thing 1 and Thing 2 Costumes including tutus, wigs, onesies, etc.

Shadows from Coolest Homemade Costumes – I do love this idea, but please have your child wear something that glows or makes them standout when trick or treating so cars can see them!

Baby Harry Potter from Spearmint Baby – I am pretty certain that this little guy will receive his letter to Hogwarts.

Rock Paper Scissors from Lauren Conrad

Dye pantyhose ANY color – (Who knew??) from If you Give a Girl a Needle – Not so much a costume, but a tip!!

Can’t forget one for the Dog  – Beanie Baby Dog Costume from Princess Pinky Girl!!

Looking for some other fun Halloween ideas – I’ve got a ton of them!!
