Honestly this is one of my least favorite holidays...(because everyone uses today as an excuse to dress skanky and gross)but with some persuading I ended up making a costume, again! and carving pumpkins. I had a good time hanging with my friends. Whatever.Here is my costume from this year 07.
I bought 2 of these sweatshirts from walmart ($5 each) and converted them into this slimfit hoodie with ears and a care bear power belly. I'm bedtime bear because I still have a bedtime (it's 9 oclock). It was the perfect idea for a kid like me who is not really into it. I was bearly dressed up but everyone knew I was a care bear character. (I tried to be the opposite of skanky and think I succeeded quite well)
Pumpkins I have less luck with...Not nearly as cute or creative, I copied my design this year from someone who put theres on Craftster.
Here is what I did last year. I was really excited for it and spent a LOT of time on it.
I'm a flamingo.
I shortened my Senior Prom Dress and added feathers all over it, made a mask and dyed my tights yellow (a lot of that dye ended up on the carpet of my dorm room, never to come up)

I think that costume is simple and fantastic. Besides... who doesn't love a Care Bear? ...and your pumpkin rocks... copied or not... You were festive in spite of yourself. :)
