big deal in NYC. Home late from work midnight, I came up with a quickie. The 'Bloody Butcher'. Contest at work. I'm such a bah-humbug usually....have a roll of butcher paper and made a chef hat even lined the edge with a strip of cotton drop cloth for comfort, staples. Found a white thrift store tuxedo shirt in our closet, and made a quickie floor length apron from an old drop cloth. I planned on making pizza anyway...
I may win the prize. Eye liner for a curly mustache.
Making fresh pizza just might be the ticket...

Halloween Costume for Adults
Comments (10)I don't know how to post a pic, but you can get the idea pretty easy by the instructions. go to goodwill and buy an old woman's dress, purse, shoes,some old neckless, like pearls, stockings(knee highs) a cane(if you want to use one), and a babies bunting outfit or some kind of a one piece outfit w/ a hood. Try the hood on your head to make sure it fits you. now stuff all of the babies outfit w/ cotton or newspaper except the hood. you will need a backpack, stuff it also, now put the backpack on you then your dress(that's what gives you the hump back) then have someone to safety pin the baby outfit on your back w/ the hood on you. pin it at the hands, and at the shoulders, let the rest just hang loose. we also pinned a pacifer to the glove part of the outfit. now get you an old woman's mask and pin it right below your chin on the dress. we had an old mask and I stuff it w/ paper then got a wig head and bought two eyes and glued them on the head so it looks like the mask has eyes.now just walk bent over and you are the hit of the party.I have a pic of my daughter in this outfit, but she would choke me if I put it on here, but if you will email me I would be glad to email youthe pic. also check out on yahoo, search walking illusions or walking illusion costumes, ther are some pretty funny ones there....See MoreNeed ideas for cute/funny adult Halloween costume
Comments (27)Thanks everyone for all the fun ideas. For a while there I was considering having DH be a king and I'd be a court jester. But, the party is on a Fri. night, which makes prep a little more tricky, decided to keep things simple also since we're hosts... so we are going to be the Skipper (DH) and Gilligan (me) from Gilligan's Island....See MoreUtterly adorable baby Halloween costumes
Comments (14)Our DGD was Yoda to her big brother's Jedi Knight last year. She tells me she'll be a bee this year; don't know about DGS's costume. She is 3 1/2, and he is 9 1/2. They trick-or-treat in their other grandmother's neighborhood in the city, where she goes through mounds of candy every year. Houses in our area are not close together, and there are civic celebrations. We stay dark now. None of our nearby neighbors have little kids at home any more. We never had more than 15-20 kids even years ago....See MoreHalloween costume?
Comments (16)Such great ideas. Thank you, everyone! Moni, definitely take a picture for us. What are you going to call the costume--"identity crisis?" "Confusion?" I remember that Tom Cruise movie, but cannot think of it right now either. Remember the scene very well. 50 Shades of Gray--very clever and easy. Not sure I would want to do it. Didn't read the book. I asked the question about a costume for myself and for my sister as well. My dear sister lives in the far corner of the Pacific NW, so the "cloudy with a chance of showers" will be great for her as its the weather forecast most days! She also said she could be a "fog bank." Perfect. For myself, I'm kinda liking the "identity crisis" theme. Again, thanks. KTers are the best!...See More

I only had this for a costume this year:
