As parents we often get so busy with our lives not noticing halloween creep up on us. We are sometimes unable to order and prepare costumes in advance. With halloween just around the corner here are some ideas for using common household items if you are in a last minute stitch:

1. Spooky Ghost

Take an old white sheet, cut a few holes and voila, you have a spoooooky ghost, the closer to the floor, the cuter :)

2. Gauze Baby Mummy

Grab a body suit and some bandages to make the cutest DIY mummy costume ever. Pictures of your baby mummy will preserve your lil ones cuteness through the ages







3. Cardboard Dinosaur

Costumes made from cardboard boxes can be so imaginative, fun and cheap to make! Absolutely nothing to sew and if you have more then 1 child they can show their own uniqueness with their very own customizations

4. Rollhead Toilet Paper Wig

All rise, the court is now in session the verdict is your baby has been found guilty of killing them in the first degree with their adorable costume

5. Lil Yummy S'mores

Who doesn’t like s’mores? Pillows are not only for bedtime, just place your mignon in between 2 pillows and dip them in chocolate, just be sure to keep them away from the campfire
