Alright Alright…so maybe I am not the most “Halloween-y” person in the world BUT I do appreciate a chance to see the weird ways people dress up.
Every year is something new! Two years ago was the Lady Gaga year and last year I saw more Sarah Palin’s than I ever wanted to see in a lifetime.
This year, however I am all about decorations! Scary pumpkin faces, googley eyeballs, candy shaped in cool ways. You just can’t beat that! The problemo here is that while decorations are one of the best parts of the holiday they are sometimes just too expensive and not worth it since they are only used for a week at most.
So drumroll please….I’m going to give you a couple of cool ideas for less! Oh yea baby! Let’s get to it!
· Spiders. They are creepy. They are crawly. They make us all jump in fear.
And when they are dangling from the ceiling, we freak out. So let’s
scare our good friends and hang some spiders!
All you need is a couple of creepy spiders and some Invisible Hanging Wire! Once you have the spiders, cut or punch a hole in the top, loop the invisible hanging wire through it. Then choose a spot on the ceiling and using tape, a thumb tack, or a nail, hang it up and watch your friends freak out!
· Here is a great costume idea! Good Ol’ Pippy Long Stocking
The challenge with Pippy is her iconic hairstyle. How the heck does she keep those pick tails up?! One way to do it is by using steel wire. Depending on your dedication to the ‘do you can choose stronger wires. My suggestions would be Galvanized wire or for a more structural hold, Durasteel wire.
Part your hair getting ready to make the pick tails. Before beginning, measure the wire from the end of one pick tail to the other, around your whole head. Cut the wire and begin to braid the pick tail around the wire.
Then when you are done simply bend the hair as desired. Easy as that.
You can purchase either type of wire on our website! OOKS.com
So good luck to all of you on your future Halloween endeavors! If you have any more funky ideas on how to use any of our OOK products – let us know in the comments section.
