Easy Halloween costumes that you can make at home

CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) – Halloween is right around the corner, but what if you don’t have an idea for a costume?

Most of these last-minute costume ideas can be created from items that you most likely will have lying around the house or can be completed with one or two items that you can buy online just in time for Halloween.

If you are running out of ideas for a Halloween costume for either yourself or your kids, The Pioneer Woman has you covered:

1. Mad Scientist Costume– This costume is easy to pull together with a wig, white lab coat, and yellow dish gloves.
2. Lumberjack Costume– All you need is a flannel and some jeans, and accessorize with a beanie and a toy axe.
3. No-Sew Dinosaur Costume– You can transform a simple hoodie into a dinosaur costume using nothing but scissors and colored duct tape.
4. Mario and Luigi Costume– Both looks are easy to recreate with T-shirts, overalls, and a few accessories like a fake mustache and some gloves.
5. Folk Singer Costume– Look to your own closet for a flowy dress and cardigan, plus boho accessories like a headband, sunglasses, and jewelry.
