Last Minute Halloween Costumes
Today is Halloween! (Or Samhain if you caught our blog
post last week.) Whether you’re having people over for a party or going out
Trick or Treating with a child or sibling, one thing is a must have. I’m
talking about your Halloween costume. Now the afternoon of October 31st
is probably not the best time to be thinking about your costume, but we’ve got
you covered. Below are 4 Halloween costumes you can put together in minutes.
Yea, they are definitely corny, but it’s your own fault for waiting so long. Happy Halloween from Chicago Gateway Green!
- Ceiling Fan: Use adhesive letters (or masking tape) to spell “Go Ceiling!” on a shirt. Carry pom-poms or mop heads. Short pleated skirt optional.

- Iron Chef: Wear a chef’s hat ($7.50) or an apron and an iron. Tie a rope around the handle of the iron and hang it around your neck.

- Fork in the Road: Wear black. Using white duct tape, make a line of dashes (your lane lines) that begins at one ankle and ends at your collar. Fasten a fork along the route.

- Pumpkin Pie: Dress in orange. Cut out a pi symbol from black paper (or print one out; type option + p) and tape it to your shirt.
