Whether you're dressing up kids, adults, or the whole family, these ideas are easy to pull off with minimal materials. Best of all, you likely have many of these items already at home, so there's no need for a last-minute shopping spree.
Classic Ghost: Grab an old sheet, cut out holes for eyes, and you’ve got a timeless ghost costume.
Mummy: Wrap yourself in white fabric or bandages for a spooky mummy look.
Black Cat: Black clothes, face paint, and homemade ears make for an easy and cute cat costume.
Superhero: Create a simple costume with a cape, mask, and DIY emblems. The fun thing about this is that you can be any type of superhero you want—Captain Underpants, anyone?
Tourist: For a funny, easy tourist costume, throw on a Hawaiian shirt, sunglasses, and a camera.
Sometimes Halloween sneaks up on us, leaving little time to plan a costume. Luckily, there are plenty of simple yet creative options you can put together at the last minute!
