Okay, so Halloween is just around the corner, and I was totally unprepared. I needed a costume, like, ASAP, but I didn’t want to spend a ton of money or waste time going to a store. So I thought, “Let me just use what I have at home.”
I started by rummaging through my closet, trying to find anything that could be useful. I found an old white bedsheet first. Then I thought, “Hey, a ghost is a classic, right?” So I decided to go with that. I draped the sheet over myself and realized I needed eyeholes. I grabbed a pair of scissors and carefully cut two holes for my eyes. It was starting to look like something!

But it was still kinda boring. Just a plain white sheet? Nah. So, I started digging around for some accessories. I found a funny hat in the back of my closet. Then I also found some sunglasses. Perfect! I put those on, and suddenly, my ghost had some personality.
Making it Pop
I was feeling pretty good about the costume, but I wanted to take it up a notch. I remembered I had these bright, colorful socks with crazy patterns. And I also had a pair of boots, just normal boots. So, I put on the socks and the boots. And man, it made a huge difference! The colors totally popped against the white sheet, and the boots added a bit of, like, a spooky edge. It’s not scary, but it is funny, I think.
Honestly, I was pretty impressed with myself. I managed to put together a decent Halloween costume without spending any money or leaving my house. And you know what? It was actually kind of fun to get creative and see what I could come up with. So, if you’re in a pinch for a Halloween costume, don’t stress! Just look around your house, you might be surprised at what you can create.
