Blog Prompt: What is your favorite Halloween costume? It can be one that you have seen or one that you have worn.

When my brother and I were younger, my mom made us Indian outfits. I loved that outfit and I wish I had a picture of it. But, we do have movies of us wearing them. I remember they were made of really soft brown material and there was fringe! It was so cool for a costume and my mom was good about making our stuff for Halloween. I don’t even know if they had store bought costumes back in the 60′s.

Oooh… I like your layout! Great colors! Ummm…. my favorite costume (that I have worn) was probably when I was a little girl. I have two sisters… and all three of us were ladybugs. My mom was a flower… and my dad was a bug exterminator!!! LOL! The pics from that Halloween always make me laugh! Well… have a Happy Halloween!

LOL, Beth. Love the family costumes.

Not sure what my favorite was? I’ll go with one I made for my son when he was 3. I was a single mom with no money. So I thought I would make him a costume instead of buying. I took strips of felt & hot glued them to an old sheet I cut out (like a ghost). It wound up costing more than buying one, but it was definitely uniques….and heavy! But it was super cold that year and my little guy stayed toasty warm. (more than I can say for me).

I went as a trash can in the 6th grade and won best costume in the elementary school. That was my absolute fave. One year (as an adult) I went as a tube of Crest toothpaste and that was fun too. My boyfriend was the toothbrush.

If they had store bought costumes back then, I never saw them. It was unheard of to buy one back then. That just meant you were too lazy to be creative!

Great layout. Back in college, I dressed up as the devil once, wearing a black leotard and making my horns out of tin foil and my barbed tail out of felt. It was a popular costume with all the boys, so I loved it, too. LOL
