Hi! Our Sunday School class is having a dress up Halloween party, with the theme being "animation". We are supposed to dress as any animated character on TV. (Scooby, Elmo, etc...) Does anyone have a costume we could buy cheaply for this event? It's Nov. 1. I'm an adult small and my husband is probably a large. We've just started the Dave Ramsey class at our church, too, so I'm trying to find "budget" friendly ways to go to this event without purchasing expensive costumes we'll most likely wear once! Thanks!

What can I do next?

Do you know the show Fairly Odd parents on nick? well you could be cosmo and wanda. cosmo wears black pants, white long sleeve button up shirt with a back tie, his hair is green and wanda wears a yellow t shirt and black pants and her hair is pink. you can make wings, wand,& crown from carbord and cover the wings in tin foil or you can go to the dollar tree and buy the kids fairy wings glue yellow construction paper over the crown and star of the wand the crown floats above their head so you can get head band and wrap a pipe cleaner around it and then tape the crown to it so it looks like it is floating above your headand they don't wear shoes so i would wear black socks but if you need too wear shoes i would try to go with black. if you need picture referance go to

Hey -
I bought a "blue's clues" "Blue" costume for my son off of ebay and then I created a "Magenta" costume for me by using a cheap pink sweatsuit from Walmart and painting the circles on it. I used pink socks on headband for the ears. I am unclear as to whether or not your kids were dressing up, but you could do a whole family affair out of the Blue's Clue's show.

I don't know if you can sew very well, but I wonder if the Flinstones would work out for you. I thing the costumes would be really easy to sew since they're not "clean" edges, and you might be able to find a big clunky white necklace at a thrift shop, or even make one out of those little styrofoam balls! Have fun!

I suggest renting. Then you are not stuck with a costume and doomed to be daphanee forever.
