[Claire Ryan]

Every costume I had as a kid was based around a bin bag! Wanted to be a witch? Cut arm holes in a bin bag and put on a witch's hat. Wanted to be a cat? Cut arm holes in a bin bag and have Christmas tinsil as a tail. Gotta love the inventiveness of the 80s!

[Laura]

A cut out mask from a cornflakes box which I coloured in myself and glued on material for hair, then made a costume out of old clothes till I was a beautiful princess and made a wand out of tinfoil on top of a stick and more cardboard from the cornflakes box!!!!

I was "pretty woman" - character from the movie, i did the boots, hat - i looked like such a skank. I won 1st prize for it because I had Julia (sorry Vivienne!) down to a tee!

[Karen Lloyd-Peate]

I dressed my son as a Mummy, i tore sheets in shreds and stapled them together as i wrapped them around him, unfortunately i stapled a few bits to his skin by mistake on a few occasions in the rush of it all so ther was no real need for the fake blood as there was plenty of the real stuff, and if his bandages were unwrapped from his face his face would have won any halloween competition, what a cruel mother lol x

[Jennifer]

Its not mine,but my sons from last night.He wanted to dress up as handy manny but instead of buying the costume we decided to do it ourselves,We even made him a wooden tool box,painted it red and stuck on some handy manny signs,and sewed on a picture of handy manny onto his cap.he looked great!
