Lego Halloween Costume

Two years ago, CRAFT: did a fun round-up of quick and easy Halloween costumes to make for kids, and Diana Eng made a fantastic Lego costume out of a cardboard box!

You could easily adapt this to an adult size, or make a whole flock of them in different colors for you and your friends — and how cute would a toddler be Lego-ized?

For more Halloween costume ideas for kids, check out CRAFT:’s other tutorials for pirate, bee, sushi, and monkey costumes. I made the monkey one with my nephew in mind, and it’s one of my favorite projects ever!

Rubik’s Cube Costume

rubiks-costume

Cardboard + duct tape + colorful paint= perhaps the coolest geeky costume ever. Designerd posted this baby at instructables, and it’s just amazing. The added detail of making each square on this Rubik’s Cube Costume appear “twistable” makes this a cardboard box costume that takes a little more than some spray paint and accrodian tubes for arms, but would be so worth the trouble.

Kill Bill Halloween Costume

gogo-yubari-costume

In honor of my movie-geekness (and love of all things Tarantino) I am featuring this amazing Kill Bill Halloween Costume I found on Flickr because it’s awesome and a little too soon for any good Inglourious Basterds costumes. FlemingBonaparte made this GoGo Yubari costume a couple years ago for Halloween. It appears doable with some decent thrift store finds, some tinfoil and enough creativity to get a wooden plank to stick to the side of your head. I love it!
