What are you going to be for Halloween?
Every year as Halloween approaches, I am reminded of time spent with my family when I was young. We would always go to the store to look at costumes and pick out what we wanted to dress up as. My siblings and I would dress up as princesses or witches and my mom would put a costume together for us. It’s always fun to see all the different costumes that people come up with.
Costumes are hard to find and even harder to make. The market for Halloween costumes is huge. People spend so much money on their costumes, it’s almost like a second Christmas. When someone decides they want a particular costume, they have to decide whether they want to buy one or make one. If you buy a costume, you have to remember that it could be expensive and might not be worth it afterward because you can’t use it again. So if you decide to make your own, you have many things to think about such as time, money, materials and whether or not it will turn out how you want it too.
If you do decide on making your own costume, the next question is where do you start? How do people make their own costumes? What should you keep in mind when choosing the

Every year around Halloween, stores are filled with kids and adults alike. They all have the same question on their minds: what should I be for Halloween?
Some people find the answer right away, while others search through the stores trying to find their perfect costume. What those people don’t realize is that it could take days, weeks or even months to make a costume.
“I start thinking about it in January,” said Sue Ann King, owner of The People’s Store on State Street. “I think of something I would like to be and then I work on it from there.”
The People’s Store is one of the many businesses in town that offers Halloween costumes. King said she makes most of her costumes. It can take anywhere from one day to a few months to make a costume, depending on how complicated the costume is.
“Some take longer than others,” King said. “I made a Woody from Toy Story costume and that took a long time.”

Want to dress up as your favorite Toy Story cowboy this Halloween? Read on for some easy steps and pictures on how to make a Woody costume.
Step 1:
Get a red or yellow bandanna for your neck. This will be your scarf.
Step 2:
Get a pair of blue jeans, and if you can, brown boots or shoes with spurs on the back.
Step 3:
Find a white button down shirt and turn it inside out. Cut out the sleeves of the shirt and then cut off the collar of the shirt. Once you have done that, glue some yellow fabric onto the collar area of the shirt so that it looks like you are wearing a t-shirt underneath your button down shirt. Repurpose an old toy sheriff badge by gluing it onto the front pocket area of your shirt. You may also want to add some patches or other embellishments to your shirt if you want to make it more authentic.
Step 4:
The easiest way to get Andy’s name printed on the bottom of your shirt is by printing it out on iron-on paper online and then ironing it onto the bottom of your button down shirt. If
I’m not sure if I am going to dress up this year. If I do, it’s probably going to be a last minute thing. I’ve already seen some of the costumes online and they are awesome!!!
I’m not sure how many people will like these costumes, but they are pretty cool. The costume I plan on making is the Woody costume. It’s easy and simple to make: all you have to do is go get some material from the store and sew it together. You can find patterns for this costume at any local craft store or online for about $10-$15.
The first step in making a Woody costume is finding material that looks like Woody’s shirt. You can use any color fabric, but yellow seems like it would work best since it’s closest in color to what we see on screen when he wears his cowboy hat with cowboy boots underneath.
Once you’ve found your fabric, cut out two pieces that are large enough to cover both shoulders and most of your chest area (depending on how tall you are). Sew them together around three sides so there’s an opening at the top where you’ll put head through later; then turn inside out so seams are hidden inside garment before putting over head like normal clothing item would be worn with arms
