Halloween is just a few days away!  Raise your hand if you’re a teeny, tiny bit under prepared.

I’m talking haven’t-bough-pumpkins where-are-the-Halloween-decorations the-kids-need-costumes under prepared.

Congratulations! We’re in the same boat. (And, might I add, you make a lovely boat companion!) 

Last Minute Halloween Costumes

Halloween is one of those holidays that seems to be AGES away until it isn’t. Don’t worry, there is still time to get costumes ready!

As I see it last minute planners have two choices:

  1. Run out to the store for some picked over and seriously overpriced plastic get-ups or
  2. Grab the glue gun and make your own.

I’m going with the second option because homemade Halloween costumes are adorable and fun to make. (Honestly, I’m down with any excuse to use my glue gun!)
