Easy, Last Minute Halloween Costumes

Dress Up as a Pun This Halloween!

Amanda Thompson
If you are looking for an easy costume this Halloween maybe you should consider a "pun costume." Halloween pun costumes will get a chuckle from everyone you see and require limited preparation.

Tickled Pink: Wear pink clothes and carry a feather. Touch yourself with the feather and laugh a lot.

Ceiling Fan: Write "Go Ceilings!" on the front of your shirt and occasionally cheer for ceilings. Add a couple high kicks and you're in business.

Melted Snow Man: Drench yourself in water or wear blue clothes and carry around two sticks, a scarf and a carrot.

Got Milk? Ad: Wear a sign that says "Got Milk?" Paint a milk mustache over your lip with make-up or other white substance. Talk about the benefits of milk.

Leafblower: Wear a baseball cap with a leaf attached to dangle in front of your face. Blow of the leaf occasionally, especially when talking to others of explaining the costume.

White Trash: Wear all white clothing and attach trash to your clothes. Glue or tape candy wrappers, fast food trash, and anything else to you clothes and act unaware.

God's Gift to Women (for men): Dress in your nicest clothes, add a large bow and a tag that says "TO: Women, FROM: God."

Black-Eyed Pea: Take a blank t-shirt and draw a giant "P" on it. Put black makeup around your eye to fake a black eye.

Devil's Advocate: Wear red and carry signs that say, "Devil is #1" and "Vote for Satan." Wear buttons advancing the cause and talk about future plans.

Someone You Can Count On: Wear all black clothes. Cut out big, bright numbers and attach them to your clothes. Allow people to move numbers around and complete math problems.

Past Your Prime: Put a sign on your shirt that says, "Sell by June 21, 2007" (or any date that has already passed).

Paper Shredder: Carry around a bag containing several sheets of paper. Occasionally take out a sheet of paper and tear it into pieces.

CD Burner: Tie a blank CD around your neck and carry a lighter. When someone asks what you are, light up and start to burn the CD.

Birthday Suit: Wear a suit and a birthday hat. Carry a horn or kazoo and sing "Happy Birthday" during quiet moments. Throw confetti at people.

Jackson Pollack Painting: Splatter drips of paint on your clothes and hang a picture frame around your neck. Talk about how creative your artist was.

Headquarters: Hot glue quarters to hairclips, and place in your hair. Make sure your attire is professional.

Head of Lettuce: Attach real or fake lettuce leaves to a hat. Wear the hat and green clothes.

Weight Watcher: Carry a small 2-pound dumbbell with you. Stare at it every chance you get and explain that you are watching your weight.
