Halloween is over and its time to purge your scary costumes. Here are a few reasons why you should do it now:
You don’t want that thing looking at you while you sleep.
You might trip on something if it’s left lying around in a dark corner of the basement.
It could be a home for spiders, bats, and other creepy crawlies.
It might still have rotting candy in the pocket that will draw insects.
That fake blood could stain something valuable if it gets on it.
It takes up space in your closet, which is great for maybe one day out of the year.
A ghost never wears just one costume, so there’s no need to hoard all of them!
Halloween is over and its time to purge your scary costumes. Here are a few reasons why you should do it now:
1. Those costumes have been sitting in the back of your closet all year, they are dusty as all get out.
2. That’s too many spiders and cobwebs on those costumes, its creepy.
3. Your costume has seen better days. It’s time to put it out of its misery.
4. You’ve got kids, you know how those things go missing or get destroyed. Don’t let that happen here! Donate those costumes to a thrift store or charity so someone else can use them next year!
5. If you don’t donate them now, you’ll never want to do it later!
Halloween is over and its time to purge your scary costumes. Here are a few reasons why you should do it now:
1. A new costume for next year. You can’t always wear the same costume or you’ll just look like you didn’t try hard enough! Also, if you save your costume from this year, you won’t be able to justify buying that super cool looking outfit next year.
2. Your closet will be nicer to look at. It’s not fun to look in the closet and see an old banana peel in the corner because someone dressed as a monkey this year and forgot to throw it away.
3. It’s more fun to dress up as something else next year. Even though you may have looked amazing in that chicken suit this year, it’s probably better to try something new and different next Halloween!
Halloween is over and its time to purge your scary costumes. Here are a few reasons why you should do it now:
1. You probably won’t be wearing that costume again for another year
2. Costumes are made out of cheap material so they tend to tear easily and the last thing you want is to have a costume hanging in your closet and it rips even more.
3. It takes up space! You probably won’t use it in the next year so why keep it? You can donate it or recycle it if its made of plastic.
4. Mouldy costumes! If your costume got wet on Halloween night, you better get rid of it because you don’t want to have a mouldy costume sitting in your closet for another year!
5. The stench! Some costumes are made out of fur or feathers which can hold onto smells (sometimes bad ones). The fast you get rid of the costume, the faster your house will smell fresh again!
Halloween is over and it’s time to purge your scary costumes. Here are a few reasons why you should do it now:
It’s a pain to store.
Costumes take up space, and if you keep them longer than one season, then you have to store them for the rest of the year. If you don’t have a large closet or storage area, then this can be an issue.
If you’re like me and don’t have much space, then keeping your costume just isn’t an option. If you do have space, storing your costume is still a big hassle. You need to find a box or bag that will keep it safe while it sits in storage. This means finding something that won’t crush the costume, tear it or otherwise damage it.
You may also need to find room for any accessories like hats, wigs or masks that come with the costume. These also tend to take up quite a bit of room and can be easily damaged unless they’re stored properly.
The only way to really store them properly is by taking them out of the packaging and storing them on hangers when possible. When not possible, such as with makeup or other accessories, then they should be carefully packed away in boxes or bags where they won
Why do we really keep our costumes? I think it’s because we want to be prepared for next year. We don’t want to be the person who is caught off guard and unprepared. It would be so much better if we could just walk into the party next year with our sexy pirate costume than having to run out and get something last minute.
The problem with this approach is that the next time you wear your costume will most likely be at a college party or some other event where it doesn’t matter what you are wearing. I feel like there are very few real reasons to keep your halloween costumes, but here are a few:
– You have a young child and you plan on dressing up with them for several more years.
– You work at a place where they have an annual halloween event (like a nursing home)
– You are in charge of organizing the decorations for the annual halloween party at your school or office
– You really like your costume and want to wear it again next year (even though this doesn’t make any sense)
I love Halloween. I’m the one who actually gets excited to put on a costume and go door to door asking strangers for candy. But after Halloween, there’s always the lingering question of: what do you do with your costume now?
Sure, you could keep it. And maybe next year you’ll wear it again, or it will make a great costume for your kids. But if you don’t have kids and you don’t plan on spending $20-$50 each year on a new costume, chances are you probably won’t wear that old costume again.
So what should you do with it? Here are some tips for purging your old costumes:
1) Donate It
