Halloween Costumes | Pad Patter 10.25.16

[keepscrappin]

So tell me do you dress up for Halloween? Are you dressing up this year? What have you been in previous years?

In the past I have dressed up as many things. I've been a witch, a mad scientist, a pirate, a gypsy, and a spooky lady, but I'm just not feeling it this year. I guess we'll have to wait and see how I feel come Monday... bwahahaha!

I'll be back with some pix, just need to go find them.

Here's a couple... Pirate 2006.

And spooky lady 2007.

This year, I'm wearing reindeer antlers. That's about it. It will go with my son's Santa Claus costume (yes, he's going as Santa Claus lol).

I haven't dressed up in awhile. The last time I dressed up was in 2012 as a witch.

Santa - that's Awesome! You could add a red clown nose and be Rudolph! hehe What's your daughter going to be? My 10 year old is going as a biker chic from Teen Beach Movie and I'm not sure what my 16 year old will go as.

We usually do a theme in our special education department at school. We've been m&m's, The Wizard of Oz, Zombie teachers, and a few other group things.
I am the Tin Man here:

Last year:

This year, most of the dept are dressing as Greek/Roman Gods and Goddesses, but two of my teacher assistants and I are going as the Sanderson Sisters from Hocus Pocus. We have planned it since last year I'm going out to pick up the last thing I need for my costume this evening. I am Sarah.

I don't normally dress up, though one year I did throw on some scrubs and a witch hat for fun (I'd just been through two knee surgeries the month before, so it was fitting).

I bought the cutest Darth Vader costume for one of my dogs (the one who tolerates such things) to wear last Halloween, and then on my way down to Mobile to spend the week with Darren I had a flat tire...with both dogs in the car! It got patched up, but by the time I got there (I was driving on Halloween) it was so late and I was so tired that we pretty much skipped all the festivities with the exception of handing out candy to the neighborhood kids. Hopefully I'll get a chance for him to use it this year!

I usually only dress up if we're going to a party. This was a few years ago.

cool group costumes. I love those zombie scars and the hocus pocus idea sounds fun too. I'll have to tell that one to my dd 16. maybe she and a couple of her friends could go as the sanderson sisters.

love your face painting and those roses on the spider web veils are so pretty, yet spooky.

Halloween isn't very big in Australia (though it is bigger than it ever was), but we still dress up sometimes. Melody's school had a Halloween Twilight Market two years ago and we dressed her up as a zombie/mummy.

I do not... unless I have plans to go somewhere on Halloween. Usually it's just trick or treating. I have a muted sparkly spider shirt I'll wear.

This question inspired a scrapbook page.

I have never been very enthusiastic about Halloween. My parents didn't want to celebrate it. I trick or treated only once in my childhood, at the age of 16 with a friend in her neighborhood. We just dressed in pajamas and called ourselves babies.

My favorite costume was in 1999. I loved the movie Titanic. I soaked my hair and a dress and carried this foam life preserver looking like someone who'd almost drowned. It's the only really creative costume I've ever done, and I love that it was so easy.

For many years in adulthood I just put on a headband with black kitty ears and tied a furry long tail around my hips over black leggings, and wore a black sweatshirt. In recent years I've been wearing this beautiful rainbow witch hat and a red velvety cape.

My kids, especially my girls, on the other hand, are very creative! It's getting late though, so I'll leave it at that.

So glad this thread inspired a layout for you Michele @michelepixels. I really should go back through and make a layout with various costumes too.

I totally have done Witches and Pebbles and dressed up one year as Q's assistants for James Bond. I love to answer the door in costume. This year maybe a death fairy, a la Edward Scissor Hands by Tim Burton.

Awe thanks Cynthia. I scrapped most of them long ago. Some during my paper scrapping days or at another digi site that's long gone now. I do however, think it would be fun to make a layout showcasing my costumes over the years like Michele @michelepixels did.

Photobucket is being fussy with resizing my pics right now, so here's a couple. 2010 we were bugs. I was a bee. Last year the boys were the Titanic & the iceberg. Hubby & I were sailors.

She is going as Serena (trainer) to go with her pokemon doll Eevee.
