Cackle all the way down the street in this spellbindingly easy witch costume. Wear all black and purchase a
witches hat and you are good to go. Unless you need a bag
for your spell ingredients too? If you want something more magickal,

Sports fan
AFL and rugby finals may be over when Halloween rolls around, but decked out every piece of team apparel you own, and you can dress yourself a sports fan for Halloween. NBA fans the season is just starting so, gear up in your team colours.
Maybe being a team mascot or
cheering the side on is more your style?
Picture this!
If you are in a real hurry, take the picture or painting out of a frame to become a self-portrait. You could always
be a ghastly ghostly face, wear a
Halloween-themed mask or be the
Queen behind the mirror from Snow White in a frame too.
The Tourist
Get your hands
on a floral print shirt and a bum bag, then combine it with some cargo shorts, retro sun visor, and a camera with a neck strap and you’re a tourist for Halloween. Socks and thongs optional but we say go for it.
The Fonz and Grease T-Birds
Wear your own black denim jeans (cuffs rolled up), a white t-shirt and a black leather jacket. Slick back your hair and you’re
one of the T-Birds or Happy Days coolest cat, The Fonz. Heeeeeeyyyyy.
Rosie the Riveter
Embody resolute icon Rosie the Riveter. Jeans and a denim shirt. Easy. Then tie a red bandanna around your head and you’re girl-powered and party ready. We’ve got a
retro wig with bandana included if you fancy.
Kindy craft skills needed for these DIY Halloween costumes:
Facebook Profile
This article has a step-by-step guide to creating
your Facebook profile as a costume. Basically, you will need to:
- Gather some basic materials from your hardware store
- Build the frame and attach some handles to carry it
- Allow for the display hole - this where your face will be the profile picture
- Print and glue your Facebook page layout to go on the front
Beer Carton Spartan
Stockpile empty beer cartons (or get some from your local liquor store) and put them to good use as Beer Carton Spartan. Depending on how tidy
or crude you want the costume to look, there are templates online to help you.
The helmet is probably the hardest part to DIY, so if you want to skip that part,
consider purchasing gladiator headgear and focus on nailing your beer box armoury.
You want a pizza me?
Got storage boxes in your cupboard? If not head to an art supplies store and buy some. Grab some coloured paper, glue, acrylic paint and some string or ribbon (to tie the costume on).
- Cut two triangle shapes out of cardboard (one for back and front)
- Paint brown for the crust, red sauce, and yellow cheese
- Cut out toppings of your choice with coloured paper and attach with a strong glue
- Pop some holes to thread the string through so the slices can hang over you.
