Make Your Own Halloween Costume

Girl Painting a Mask

Don’t rack up an outrageous bill at the costume store this Halloween. Instead, find some treasures at home. 

Dig through your sibling or parent's old wardrobe and the boxes of dated clothing you’ve got stashed in your attic. Borrow some eclectic jewelry and fun accessories from Grandma, or pick some up for cheap at a dollar store. You can also get creative by checking out YouTube for some adorable and effortless DIY costume ideas that won’t cost a penny.

Can you take the challenge and skip the costume store this year? Show us what you came up with by posting a snapshot of your friends in their Halloween getups on Instagram, tagging us @idealcreditunion #IdealCostumes.
