A scarecrow Halloween costume might be prepared by utilizing a flannel shirt and stuffing it with a pillow and then placing bits of hay or straw in the openings of the shirt so that it seems like the whole thing is filled with hay or straw.  The shirt and pillow needs to be held in place with a rope belt and baggy jeans or dungarees need to be worn over it also. After all, an actual scarecrow is normally manufactured from bits and pieces and stuff you don’t need so how tricky could it be to make a scarecrow outfit ?

Pirates are a classic Halloween costume. Everybody likes to dress up as a Pirate at least once. It is not really that arduous to make a costume with over sized, old clothing and a bandanna and you’d probably need a couple of props to really convince that you’re a buccaneer. A sword, eye patch or captain hat could be all you need to add to seem like a legendary pirate.

How about topical costumes ? Think of reports in the news and style a costume based on the individual or folks implicated in the story. A few years back it was octomom. Last year it was Barack Obama. What about wrapping a nine iron around your neck and donning golf gear and pretend you’re Tiger Woods. I’m sure there are a few reports that will break before Halloween to inspire you to make that topical and witty costume that could have the party chuckling.
