Easy Adult Halloween Costume


I can't believe it's already October!  Where did September go?  It's coming to that time to think about Halloween costumes!  Kids costumes typically are pretty easy but when it comes to adult costumes it seems all that's out there is either totally bloody and guts or something on the verge of hooker wear.  Last year I dressed up as a bar table top (sounds weird, right)?  It actually worked out really well and got some chuckles.  Plus I was able to be comfortable and when I wanted to be done with it it was easy to remove.  Here's what you will need:

baseball cap
cardboard box
construction paper
deck of cards
coasters
chewed gum
empty beer can/plastic wine glasses

Cut the box into a square (or circle) only as big as you are comfortable with to move around and walk through doors (I originally did mine too big and couldn't make it through the door way...oops).  In the center, cut a circle to fit around your head on top of the baseball cap.  Cover the cardboard with black or brown construction paper and glue or tape on the cards, cans, coasters and wine glasses.  Then place chewed gum on the bottom of the box.  Dress in all black or brown and place your table on your head wearing the baseball cap.....Wala your a bar table!
