MNASSHP costume question

[sbpuckett]

OK, i have several new questions today. This is the first. This might sound crazy but I hate the idea of paying so much for adult costumes so... does anyone know if you can "rent" costumes anywhere around Disney? I guess my other option would be ebay, but that's just one more thing to lug back and forth. My husband suggested going as the "Incredibles" since that's our 6 year olds newest fave. And there are 4 of us...

Any suggestions?

Don't know about renting costumes, but remember that it can get hot for the party so when you pick out costumes try not to have something you will get overheated in. Also choose something that you can easily ride the rides with and walk through the parks with.

Have Fun!!

Good point - Thanks! I was also thinking of a POC theme...

I don't know of any places around WDW that rent costumes but you could make some that would be easy to pack.



EASY TO DO & EASY TO PACK COSTUME IDEAS

101 Dalmatians.... You could take white shorts/pants and t-shirts and go to town with spots! Ears could be made out of felt or craft foam on ball caps (esp for the guys) or maybe headbands for the ladies.

The Mickey Mouse Club....Red pants,mouse ears,t-shirts with each ones name on it.

Baseball players...Your favorite team's jersey/t-shirt and a ball cap,shorts or sweats and sneakers.

Pirate....Easy and light weight too. Black shorts or capris,striped shirt,bandana,an eye patch,a hoop earring and there ya go....arrrrrrrrrrgh matey!!!

Hippies...tye dye shirts,denim pants,peace sign jewelry,bandana around your head,round glasses.



I found several pretty cool sites for make your own.There are 100's of places to buy costumes online!

Thought I'd share these with my DIS Trick or Treaters!

I know this is obsessive, but we are Fed-Exing our costumes to POFQ and sending them home that way to save on luggage space. We LOVE Halloween!
