How Do You Create A Costume From Thrift Store Clothes?

Halloween costumes don't have to be expensive to win prizes. Go to your nearest thrift store, and be sure to bring along your creativity and imagination. Assemble a gypsy costume with a flowing dress, hoop earrings, beads, bracelets and a scarf or shawl.

Buy a white sheet to create a ghost costume. Look for bell-bottomed pants, platform shoes, a polyester shirt and beads to become a hippie. Search the racks for old pants, a long shirt, an old tie and worn-out shoes and you'll have the makings for a hobo.

Become a clown if you can find oversized shoes, a long, wide tie and brightly colored (ideally polka-dotted) pants and shirt. Transform yourself into a tourist with a Hawaiian shirt, shorts, sunglasses, maps and a camera around your neck. Don jeans, a flannel shirt and cowboy boots for a cowboy costume.

Turn into a prom queen if you stumble on a fancy old dress, stilettos, a crown and jewelry. Wash any items you purchase at a thrift store thoroughly. Do simple alterations to fit; pin ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
