October 30th Costume of the Day

Almost there!  Can't believe tomorrow is Halloween.  Seems like we just got over Christmas and was wondering what the new year would bring!

Today is a funny tribute to the S**t costumes (i.e. Holy S**t, No S**t, Bull S**t, etc.)  Instead of being S**t we will use the terd...term, Poo, as in "Poo" Bear.  Any of the S**t costumes will do and just add teddy bear ears and a jar of honey.

October 26th-29th Costumes of the Day!

Playing catch-up!  It's been a crazy week and costumes have been the focus of just about everything leading up to this weekend :)  Here's the final cut:

October 26th: Mr. "T"ea, Wear a mustache and put a capital T on a shirt, OR throw on the Mohawk/Fauxhawk and carry a cup o'tea. 

October 27th: Devil with a Blue Dress (1995 classic), easy peasy!  Wear a blue dress...funnier when a guy does it, and throw on some devil horns :)

October 28th: Boxed Wine, Pick your favorite wine label, attach it to a shirt, make a black spot around one eye (for a black eye) and wear boxing gloves.

October 29th: Happy Bunny, you can buy bunny ears pretty much anywhere as well as a t-shirt with a smartass saying on it.

The top two will be posted soon :)

October 25th Costume of the Day

One of my favorites :) 

Fat Tuesday:  A play on the Wednesday Adams character with a Mardi Gras twist.  Wear a goth outfit with some extra stuffing and don a Mardi Gras mask and beads, jester hat, etc.  <---this may be next years project for the Massacre *shhh*

October 21st, 22nd, 23rd and 24th Costumes of the Day

Sidetracked by work and play I had to post the full weekend for today. 

October 21st (Thanks to Jenny) Iron Chef:  Wear a chef hat with an apron and carry an iron. 

October 22nd (Thanks to Roger & Shell) Dick-tater: Get a potato or Mr. Potato head and string it around your waist to hang...well, you know...

October 23rd Hairy Potter: Wear a hairy costume without the mask and carry a planter or clay pot around.



October 24th Bloody Mary had a Little Lamb:  A scary crossover classic, dress in your best blood bath with a ghostly face and drag a mauled looking blood covered stuffed lamb on a chain.  Yeah, that's a sweet addition to my Scarytales series :)

Happy Costume Hunting :)

October 20th Costume of the Day

Invisible Woman: (very easy) buy a sheet of camouflage netting; when people ask what you are dressed as, wrap it around you so they can't see you. If you're a guy dressing this part just add a wig and some lipstick.

October 19th Costume of the Day

A Lady Gaga tribute...

Poker Face: Draw the four suits on your face (heart, diamond, clubs, spade).  To really add to the costume you can pin cards in groups of a full house, four of a kind, flush, etc. to a shirt.

October 18th Costume of the Day

Not to beat the angel theme to death, but here's another spin on the feathery lovliness.
Earth Angel: Wear an angel costume and on the dress/robe use paint to make a map of the world (It's a 1950's classic by The Penguins in case all you youngins missed the pun!)

October 17th Costume of the Day

Holy crap it's getting harder and harder to come up with ideas that aren't already costumes you can buy!  Here's another one from the original list...

"Arch" Angel: angel costume with golden arches as wings :)

October 16th Costume of the Day

LOL!  Here's a funny classic...

"It puts the lotion on the skin":  You can go retro with a tan skin suit (They're all the rage this season with a multitude of colors--hubs has one!) and carry a bottle of lotion.

OR

Joe Dirt style: skin suit, sleeveless plaid button down shirt, a mullet, and lotion. 

October 15th Costume of the Day

For my SIL-ly gal (SIL-Sister in law for you non readers): 

Johnny on the Spot:  Wear a name tag that says "Johnny", cut out a big black circle from felt or construction paper.  When someone asks who you are throw the spot on the floor, stand on it, and say "Johnny on the spot!"

**The picture of Johnny Depp has nothing to do with the costume...he's just a hottie :)

October 14th Costume of the Day

Pink Eye:  Use the white powder makeup to lighten your face, and paint one eye pink. 

October 13th Costume of the Day

Here's one for adults only...

Teddy Bear:  Wear a bear costume and put lingerie on over it...get it?  Teddy?  Oh whatever.

Cops and Caffeine

I have some friends who wear badges and run towards the chaos.  In the midst of the chaos, long hours, weird encounters, and dangerous daily tasks, I asked them, "What's your poison?" 

Here's some of the replies:

Fuzzy 1: Mt. Dew.  Gotta have the Dew.

Fuzzy 2: Water, gym time, and protein *insert man grunt here* 

Fuzzy 3: COFFEE...<---must agree

Fuzzy 4: Sweet tea *I've heard it keeps'em sweet, otherwise they are a bear to work for*

Fuzzy 5: Diet Coke, coffee, Mt. Dew, straight caffeine works too.

Fuzzy 6: Coffee with a Diet Dr. Pepper chaser *wink*

The caffeine crusade continues!

**Just for S&G I asked about the donut diet...I'll save that for another post ;)

October 12th Costume of the Day

Jail Bait:  Another easy original, any convict costume will do and add some bait and tackle :)

October 11th Costume of the Day

Here's an inexpensive costume ANYONE can pull off:

Leaf Blower:  Get a fake leaf, attach it to a string, hang it from a baseball cap just in front of your face...and blow it.  LOL! 

October 10th Costume of the Day

Zom-bee:  Another twist on a cute classic, wear a bee costume and lather on the blood, guts and gore!

October 8th and 9th Costumes of the Day

I'm late posting the costumes, blah blah blah.  Been a yucky weekend here in the "Raining cats and dogs, flooding like a banshee, wind blowing harder than a hooker for rent money" state.  This torrential downpour needs to stop.  It's cramping my blogging.

Here's yesterdays costume of the day:

Rainbow Bright:  Your traditional childhood fave but with a twist.  Add horn rimmed glasses and some Physics books :)
