You could go to a Halloween shop and get a $25 rayon approximation of your favorite character’s outfit, or you could spend $80 on a state-of-the-art costume that looks like you just walked off a movie set. OR, you could make one of these DIY Halloween costumes, get tons of compliments, save a load of money, and have a blast doing it!
DIY Halloween Costumes
Believe it or not, you don’t have to go to the store and spend a fortune to get a great Halloween costume. You can easily make one yourself from items you may already have at home or that you can buy on the cheap at a thrift store.
Our sister site, Living on the Cheap has compiled a list of 101+ cheap and easy Halloween costumes with instructions on how to make each one.
The list, which includes costumes for both kids and adults, is broken down into these categories: Scary Costumes, Real-Life People, From Pop Culture and History, Costumes for Couples or Groups, Off-Beat Costumes, Sports-Themed Costumes, Animals, and Bonus Ideas.
Happy Halloween!
