9 Cheap, Last-Minute DIY Group Halloween Costumes

In This Article:

Here are nine easy group Halloween costumes if you don't have a lot of time or money!! They're really easy to make for groups big or small, and inexpensive too!

Four Seasons (and Vivaldi!)

Be as creative as you want when making the Four Seasons costumes; bundle up for winter, whip out your best Hawaiian shirt for summer, so on and so on. And it's even better if someone in your group dresses up as Vivaldi! (Bonus points if you get the joke)

Care Bears 

You can personalize this costume however you want with just a plain color shirt, white felt, and some markers. Making some ears from felt and cotton balls isn't that hard or expensive either!

Cards Against Humanity 

This will definitely be a hit with the crowd on Halloween. Feel free to personalize these cards however you want, and mixing-and-matching will make for some hilarious group photos.

Fruit (Ninja?) 

Making a fruit costume isn't that hard because all you have to do is decorate a shirt, and you can really get creative and make any fruit you want. If you want to get super creative, you can harken back to 2010 and have some people in your group dress up as ninjas; all it takes is a few people to wear all black in addition to your creative fruit numbers and voila, Fruit Ninja!

M&Ms (or Skittles!)

Giphy

All you need is a T-shirt and some white felt or paint, easy as that! And you can have as many people in as many different colors if you want, so this is a great easy costume for big groups! And if you're more of a Skittles person, all you have to do is change the' to an 'S' and you're all set.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 

Giphy

A green shirt and some fabric paint makes this costume incredibly easy for anyone to make. Extra points if you make felt bandannas and/or tin cooking pan shells!

Dalmations (and Cruella)

The only thing you need for this costume is a white shirt and a black marker, and maybe some black face paint as well. One person in your group could even throw on a dress and some white gloves and be Cruella!

Mimes 

All you need is black jeans, a striped shirt, and some face paint and you have the perfect mime costume! It's great for big groups and if anything, you'll only need to buy a cheap striped shirt and face paint, so it's very inexpensive too!

Kiss

If you want to go more hardcore than a mime but still want some awesome face paint, the band, Kiss is a great option! Just throw on all black, paint your face, and stick your tongue out and you've got it on lock!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
