Last Minute Halloween Reminders

Christams Lady 2

With Halloween right around the corner you may still be wondering what you little one should be or whether or not you should dress up to. Luckily there is still time!

Some costumes range on the high end of the price scale and many families can´t always afford a costume for every member but there are many options available.

You can find many costume "collections" so that the whole family can match and they are affordable. One great idea for a family of three is to go as the Flintstones with dad as Fred, mom as Wilma and the daughter as Pebbles or if you have a son go as the Rubbles; Barney, Betty and Bamm-Bamm.

No matter what costume you decide on getting whether it is family matching or a little sexier for an adult Halloween party you cannot forget the shoes and accessories. Who would Dorothy be without her ruby red slippers? Who would a vampire be without their fangs? Who would a witch be without her hat or broom? These are important things to remember when purchasing your costume and can be what makes or breaks you winning the best costume award.

If you are still planning on putting up some scary decorations around your house to scare the trick-or-treaters spider webs and pumpkins are a must have. Many towns have pumpkin patches that you can take your children to. Pumpkin patches are a fun family activity that really sets the mood for fall. You can also find hayrides, corn mazes and face painting at many pumpkin patches, have fun finding the way out of the maze. So find a pumpkin patch nearby and head there the weekend before Halloween find the perfect pumpkin and show off your artistic side when carving your pumpkin to show off on Halloween.

So with these ideas and reminders hopefully you will find the answer to your Halloween costume questions. If ordering online make sure your purchase will arrive in time. Most places offer free two-day shipping when your purchase is over a certain amount. Don´t forget to charge the batteries for your camera and make sure you have enough space on your camera or on your phone so that you can take plenty of pictures! I will leave you with one final tip, don´t wait until the last second to purchase your costume if you wait your costume, shoes or accessories may be sold out.

Happy Shopping & Happy Halloween!
