Fall is in full swing and one of the greatest holidays during the school year is around the corner: HALLOWEEN!! Lucky for you, Green Observer is here to help you rock October 31st, while keeping it green! An excellent way to save money and the earth is to re-use old costumes. If you don’t want to be a costume-repeat offender, swap costumes with friends, hit up the Salvation Army, or thrift through second-hand shops for inspiration! Here are a few costume ideas that you can construct with items lying around your apartment:
· Old Sheet: Poke 3 holes to become a ghost, cut the sheet in strips to transform into a mummy, or wrap and tie the sheet up with golden rope to walk like an Egyptian or ancient Roman
· Cardboard Robot: All you need is a couple of different sized boxes! Get crazy and decorate it with buttons, glitter, stickers, antennas, etc., or keep it simple by using certain boxes… nothing classier than a Natty Light robot!
· Cowboy/Cowgirl: We go to school in Central Illinois… so plaid shirts, jeans/jean skirts, and boots are pretty easy to come by
· Masks are sweaty, smelly, and uncomfortable, so ditch the rubber thing and make use of make-up you already have lying around the house.
We hope you have an amazing Halloween! Have fun, be safe, and don’t forget to recycle any aluminum, glass, or cardboard party favors!
