subject: Unique Halloween Costume Ideas [print this page] It is easy to pick out a costume from one of the same overused Halloween costume ideas that everyone likes to rely on. While it might be fun to be a witch, a pirate, or a convict, all of those have been done to death. Instead of trying to recreate a theme that has been used a million times already why not do something that will be new to most people. Many of these ideas aren't used often and are sure to be a fit.
Try being a highway this Halloween for a cheap and easy costume that should get some laughs as well as compliments on originality. Start off by dressing in an outfit made of black clothing. Then add some white tape for guidelines on the road. From there you should attach some cars, signs, and people to make yourself look like an authentic road. Be creative with the costume and you are sure to come up with something cool.
For a costume that doesn't require much of anything dress up like a husband who is cheating on his wife. To do this you simply need to mess up your hair, button your shirt wrong, put your shoes on the wrong feet and get someone to leave lipstick kisses on your shirt. This is a very easy costume and will be pretty funny for everyone else.
A spelling bee is an excellent costume for a child because it is clever. Dress them up like a bumble bee and then begin attaching a bunch of words and letters to the costume to complete it.
Another original costume is a peeping tom. To create this outfit get a name tag and write Tom on it. Now build a cardboard window and hang some curtains from it. When people ask what you are look through your window and they will immediately understand.
A self portrait is a quick and easy project that can be created with some cardboard you can get from free. Make a large enough picture frame that you can frame the upper half of your body in. Now sign the bottom frame of the picture and attach the frame to your body so that you are centered in it.
One of the most interesting of these costumes is a black and white film star. To pull this costume off dress in all black and white clothes. Now paint your skin with a gray paint that will take any color away from your complexion. Now simply avoid talking and act out anything that you want to say or at least mouth the words.
Clever Halloween costume ideas are created by thinking out of the box. Most of the time people are the same handful of things each and every year. Sure it is fun to redo holiday favorites, but it is even more fun to create a costume that nobody else has ever used. Pick out a few of these ideas for your next costume or come up with your own ideas before the next Halloween rolls around.
