Hi, all! I just BARELY made the shipping deadlines for my costume, but for those of you that find last minute plans that require a low-cost costume/makeup idea, let's post up tutorials/pictures/links to help everyone make this Halloween count! I know you all have found some awesome examples you'd be willing to share!

Below I posted my back-up costume idea if my ordered costume did not come in time:

Here's a great cheap way to make the crystal sculpture for this Lady Gaga costume! All you need is posterboard, scissors, glue, a wig and a solid dress... gold paint optional for the crystals... shouldn't cost you more than $20!

I'm dressing up as Miss Universe this Halloween. All you need ia a party dress, a pair of heels, a fake tiara from the dollar store, and a ribbon to make a sash :D

^That is probably one of the fastest and most convenient I've heard of yet! Love it! [Why the heck didn't I see this idea when I was looking for back-up costume ideas?] Keep 'em coming!

I was oogling the Instructables site, and HAD to share this... even though it takes a bit more effort in DIY, but OMG: http://www.instructables.com/id/Toilet-Costume/

I love the description under the pic after you click on the link! They actually used the toilet bowl as a candy bowl!
