As Halloween draws nearer, it’s time to start thinking about what costume to make this year. DIY Halloween costumes are always a hit and are so much more fun (and affordable!) than those from the store. Nothing feels better than showing off your kids’ adorable DIY costumes as you trick-or-treat in the neighborhood or soaking up the compliments at a Halloween party.
However, the hardest part of making a Halloween costume is actually coming up with an idea. You want an original, unique costume, without being too obscure so that others can appreciate your hard work. If you’re a parent or grandparent, you only have a certain number of years to dress your little one up in adorable outfits, so you want to make sure to have a special costume each year. As time ticks on and you struggle to find an easy, creative idea, you might be tempted to go with a boring, traditional costume that has been done a million times, or even (yikes!) a store-bought ensemble. Finding the time and patience to create a high-quality costume is a challenge.
