Need a Hallow-Win!

I need your ideas!!! I need an idea for a Halloween costume! I don't sew. I have little or no money. I cannot wear skimpy costumes... just trust me on this. That being said, I need an idea for a CLEVER and EASY costume!!! Not LAME either... I mean, I want something that doesn't require extreme makeup, but yet good enough - clever enough - to win a prize... Yeah, I'm not PICKY at all!!! lol!

So, hit me with some Bloggy Goodness... What ideas do you have for me???

this is hard because I don't know what you have in your wardrobe. It has to be something that makes you look cute. I'm gonna think about it for a little bit.

maybe an old lady. you can baby powder your hair. cheap and easy but won't make you look too cute and you might not win a prize. I'll keep thinking.

Gosh...I got nothing! If I think of something I will come back. You might want to check out Martha's site for inspiration. You may not be able to do her complicated stuff but, you may find a cheap way to do an idea:-) That's what I always do!

Well, there is always the classic kitty cat. Wear all black, draw on some whiskers and a little nose, put some kitty ears on a headband.

I agree! The black cat is always a cutie and a cheeky winner!

Make yourself a Lego....take a box, cut arm holes, glue empty margarine tubs on the front. Paint and wear. I saw that in a magazine and it was So cute!

be a butterfly wear all black and buy some wings. the dollar tree in my town sells wings. can you afford a buck?

Swine flu. Paint on or make a piggy nose mask (egg carton would probably work), glue some felt ears to a headband, make a tail out of pipe cleaner, then wear a face mask and glove everywhere. I bet you have most of the crafty stuff already at home.

Okay I have the winner! I won a contest with this in college and it cost me next to nothing. Go as a picnic table! You cut a big cardboard box into a circle, cover it with one of those cheapie tablecloths, add place settings with hot glue-cups, plates, forks, spoons, etc. Cut a hole in the middle of the table for your head, put a paper cup with plastic flowers in it on your head with bobby pins and viola! It's not sexy but it's hilarious and you will WIN!

Do you want something funny or scary?

Do you want to borrow my Crazy Cat Lady costume? I just made a simple dress, bought a sweater and slippers at DI. I sewed on some cheap stuffed cats.

You can go as a pig. I have a plastic pig nose and a pink sweats outfit.
