Funny San Francisco Halloween Costume Ideas for October 2010
Use Your Creative Talents to Make These San Francisco Costume Outfits for Halloween
Now anyone can buy a costume off the shelf of the local store or through the internet. But it takes some special skills and dedication to make a fun San Francisco-styled Halloween costume that people will remember for a long time.
Take some extra time in 2010 and consider crafting one of these DIY Halloween costumes that are well-known throughout the world as being distinctly a part of the great City and County of San Francisco, California, USA.
Make a San Francisco Coit Tower Halloween Costume Outfit
Creating a Coit Tower costume takes a lot of work but is possible if you dedicate your time and resources. First visit sftravel.com for a photograph and history of Coit Tower. You will see that Coit Tower resembles a fire hose nozzle. The next step is to get a large piece of white cardboard and roll it into a tall oval that is as tall as you are but that fits you just right, and then use heavy-duty staples or masking tape to attach the ends together. It is best if you can make a square base for your feet so you can walk easily enough, just like the square base that fits the real Coit Tower. Then create a separate section for the top of your Coit Tower costume. Curve the top of this section and provide lookout holes.
Make a San Francisco Transamerica Pyramid Building Halloween Costume Outfit
If you have the time, consider making a fun Transamerica Pyramid Halloween costume. This outfit takes some effort but the basic supplies are cardboard and thin sticks for the structure. For construction photos of the building of the Transamerica Pyramid, check out the website of Transamerica.com. These photos should help you in the design and building of your Transamerica outfit. Recruit your design or engineering friends to help on this costume.
Make a San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge Halloween Costume Outfit
How about a fun Halloween costume of the famous Golden Gate Bridge? If you think it is impossible, think again. Check out this website for fun pictures of a Golden Gate Bridge costume. It will take some effort but this costume should be lots of fun. Just examine the photograph to see how it was made and then make your own plans for designing a similar Golden Gate Bridge Halloween costume for 2010.
Hope you can use some of these suggestions for a fun Halloween costume outfit with a San Francisco twist. Even if you do not live in San Francisco, these costumes will be instantly recognized all over the world. People will quickly take photos of you in your San Francisco-styled Halloween costume in 2010. Some people may even decide to take that trip to San Francisco that they had been postponing for what seems like an eternity.
Have a safe and fun Halloween night. If you have a big bulky Halloween costume outfit, enlist some friends to help you walk around at night. Take los of photographs and share them with your friends and family members. Happy Halloween!
