5 Easy And Affordable DIY Halloween Costumes

Halloween is just days away. If you are like me, you have no idea what you are going to wear but are expected to show up in something other than regular daily attire. To help us both out, I've scoured social media sites and found these 5 easy and affordable DIY Halloween costumes for TikTok Tuesday.

I have friends who have been planning their outfits for months. Some of them are putting together elaborate costumes that they have been painstakingly constructing in their free time. This holiday is like their Christmas. They absolutely love it and go all out.

You might be the same way. If so, thank you. You help make this season entertaining and fun.

I'm typically someone who waits until the last minute to throw something together. This year is no exception. Sometimes last minute ideas are homeruns, other times they are strike outs. I'm just trying to get on base with some of these ideas.

If you're costume is done but you need help with food and decor I have some ideas for those too. For some pumpkin spice recipes that cover lots of ground, click here. If you are looking for creative appetizers for Halloween, here are some great ones to try. Also, for cool pumpkin carving designs and ideas, click here.

If you don’t have a TikTok account, don’t worry. I’ve made it easy to view the videos by taking these links from mine. Simply scroll down and watch from this post. Share this with friends who are also behind in getting their costumes together.

This is an old faithful. Blow up a bunch of balloons to become a bunch of grapes. Word of caution, be thoughtful in what you wear underneath. People will inevitably pop those balloons as the night goes on.

You see these often and they always make people stop and look. Even if you know how it is made, you can't help but stare and try to figure it out. This takes a little more time but it turns out great and is still affordable.

This one was hot years ago but it still makes a fun costume or inspiration for something similar. Plus, I love the way this guy gets into it in his video.

This is a cool way to get straight lines on your face. Even if you don't try to create a spider web like this one, it is a great tip for other designs.

This could not get any easier. If you have kids and are on a budget, check this one out. The entire family could pick a different Ninja and cover the whole group of the famous cartoon turtles.
