Designing your own Halloween costume can be easier than you might think. All it takes is a wee time and some imagination. Start by deciding exactly what you would like to be for Halloween. Once you have made this decision your next step would be to gather the significant materials to compose the exquisite costume. Be sure and allow yourself enough time to work on the costume, that way if you end up missing an leading item you still have time to go out and pick it up. Waiting for the last wee is not a good idea.
Angel - For an angel costume you would need some white material for the body of the outfit. You can buy some thin, easy to work with wire from most any craft branch store. Use this to compose the halo that fits perfectly around your head. Also, pipe cleaners can be used for this. Dress it up by using lace or some type of silky material to sew around as a covering. Some white or gold color material would look exquisite for the angel's wings. Sew some wire through the edges of the wings to help them stand out.
Halloween Decorations
Witch - Have you always wanted to be a witch for Halloween? If so, you simply start by purchasing the black material. Just sew a straightforward pull over dress then use a belt to pull it tight around your waist. You can whether buy a black belt or sew one from left over material. Cut the bottom in a zigzag to add a touch of flare, add some black boots, an old broom for a prop and of course, the pointed black hat. If you want to make the hat yourself you can do so by using cardboard to form the wide brim pointy compose and glue the black cloth to the outer covering of the cardboard.
Animal - perhaps a cute wee animal such as a cat, dog or even an adorable wee bunny is more what you are looking for. Pipe cleaners sewed to a strap for hold make breathtaking whiskers, or just use a makeup pencil to color them on. Ears can be made by sewing together material with just enough stuffing to give them shape and body. Sewing wire along the edges of the ears will allow them to be shaped into separate positions. To make a tail for a cat or dog you simply need to cut out and sew together a piece of material the literal, length. Next, add the stuffing to give it the depth it needs then sew it onto the rest of the costume. A big ball of cotton glued onto a bunny outfit makes a exquisite Peter Cotton Tail.
