The Flintstones Group Halloween Costume Ideas

Jennifer Claerr
"The Flintstones" costumes make excellent group costume for families. "The Flintstones" are an especially good choice if you're going out on Halloween with another couple. Even if you're stepping out on Halloween with your friends, dressing up as "The Flintstones" would be lots of fun. The costumes should be easy to make if you can find fabric or old garments made from fleece or felt. Felt is the best fabric to use. Since it isn't woven, you can cut it any way you like without hemming it. Acrylic fleece has the right texture for Flintstones costumes, but since it's woven, it might unravel if it isn't hemmed. If you're using fleece or any other woven fabric, use liquid fabric fray stop on the cut edges to prevent fraying.

Flintstones Group Halloween Costumes

Make a Fred Flintstone costume by getting a long short-sleeved orange gown or dress. Cut the sleeves and the hem of the dress with a jagged edge. Use permanent black marker to draw triangles on the Fred Flintstone costume. Then get a long light-blue scarf to tie around your neck. For a Wilma Flintstone costume, get a white dress with a white belt. Cut the end of the skirt to a jagged edge. Cut and sew the top of the dress to create a single strap over the left shoulder. Add a large white bead necklace and a red wig that's been styled into a bun. Make the Pebbles Flintstone costume by pairing some light blue shorts with a green baby doll top. Color triangles on the shirt with black marker. Tie a prop bone into a red wig.

Rubble Group Halloween Costumes

You can make Barney Rubble's costume out of a simple brown dress or gown. Cut up the end of the costume at the hem. Cut four holes at the neckline and lace it together with a black lace in an X pattern. Make Betty Rubble's costume with a sleeveless light blue dress. Cut up the hem like the other Flintstones costumes. Attach a white plastic disc and a black strap at the neckline of the costume. The Bamm Bamm Rubble costume can be made by making a "loin cloth" out of and orange skirt or pair of shorts. Cut up the end of the shorts or skirt and attach a brown strap, which should go over the left shoulder. Attach a bone to the bottom of the strap. Add a white wig, a cap to match the loin cloth and a prop caveman club.
