Oh-Em-Gee! Halloween is less than 2 weeks away!!! Where did October go???? We had all of these grand plans for sweets and crafts and costumes…You too?
Don’t scream yet, you still have time to cram almost all of it in. Make the most of your time by checking out some of our Awesome Halloween Tricks and Treats for lots of fun sweets and crafts for the holiday. They’re guaranteed to add some instant fright with minimal effort.
That just leaves costumes. We did some sleuthing on Pinterest and kept coming back to all of these adorable food costumes! Wear your favorite food this Halloween!
Can’t have Netflix and Chill without the popcorn! Plus, you can carry around a snack all night judgement free!!!
2. COTTON CANDY
I can’t even with this fluffy skirt and turquoise shoes! Another costume where it’s perfectly ok to carry around a snack. Are you noticing a theme here? This is the perfect way to reuse that blush colored bridesmaid dress you said you’d “totally wear again.” If you don’t have a fluffy peach dress hanging in your closet, it’s easy to make your own tutu skirt. Tip: Cotton Candy goes great in champagne!
Who didn’t love these as a kid? The flavors. The colors. Analyzing the flavor key for Bubblegum only to get Peppermint. A bag and some balloons and you’re done. Harry Potter fan? Take this one a step further – Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Beans!
4. STARBUCKS
Everyone’s favorite coffee beverage! This costume is flirty and fun. Grab a dress from a second hand shop, or if you’re adept with a sewing machine, a simple pattern and some coffee colored fabric and you’re on your way.
5. PINEAPPLE
We are in love with all things pineapple right now and that includes this adorable costume. Cute dress with an easy to make topper! Can’t get much easier than that.
6. TACO
Who thought a taco could be elegant? We’re almost tricked into thinking this could pass for semi-formal attire. Customize the toppings to your liking – cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, peppers. Guac makes it extra 😉
You probably have everything you need for this nostalgic costume in your closet, and if you don’t, you can wear most of it again. Grab an inexpensive white t-shirt, some pom-poms, and load up your hot glue gun.
8. CUPCAKE
It should be no surprise that a cupcake makes our list. I mean, if we could be any dessert, we’d be a cupcake! And no cupcake is complete without sprinkles!!!
9. DONUT
Donut worry! Be happy! The milk hat makes this NO-SEW donut costume!
10. MAC-N-CHEESE
Start saving those empty toilet paper and paper towel rolls. A few dozen of those and a round laundry basket are the base for this instantly recognizable costume.
11. FRENCH FRIES
Mickey D’s fries are a cult obsession! We don’t blame you if they’re your guilty pleasure too. Scrap cardboard. Red t-shirt. Yellow fabric paint. Pants optional. Costume done.
No fry is complete without some Ketchup!
12. AVOCADO
Expectant moms, don’t hide your “bump” on Halloween – feature it! It makes the perfect avo pit! If you’re not pregnant and you want to channel your inner avocado, get a half-sphere of floral foam and glue it to the foam-core board.
13. PIZZA
This one’s for you Jenni! Studio DIY is back at it again with this totes adorbs pizza costume.* Plus it’s Jenni’s favorite food, so how could we not?! These girls KILL it with the costumes. We’re taking notes!
*Delivery boy not included
**BONUS COSTUME** STRAWBERRY
Here’s another one that takes some minor skill with a sewing machine, but with a few cheap supplies you’ve got yourself (and your best friend!) a berry adorable costume! Convince some friends to dress as a Pineapple (see #5 in our list), Grapes, and a Banana and you’ve got yourself a fruit salad! #GroupCostumeGoals
