13 Easy Last Minute DIY Halloween Costumes

I’m not the only one who is a complete procrastinator… and costumes are no exception! I love holidays and themes, but even so I am always scrambling at the last minute. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays- there are so many opportunities for crafting and creativity. That’s why I made this post- so that my fellow procrastinators can get some quick last minute ideas for halloween costumes!

All these costumes are easy and simple to put together. I tried to use a range that would appeal to women and men of many ages. Some of them can even be made with things you already have at home- perfect for when you need to throw something together at the last minute.

So here are the adorable last minute DIY halloween costumes for you procrastinators:

1. salt and pepper

Easy Last Minute DIY Halloween Costume: Salt and Pepper

Simple and sweet! I love this costume idea from evite. It’s perfect to do as a couple or with a friend. You can easily make this using only a solid white or black tshirt, and some felt cut into an S or a P. Add a hot glue gun and you’ve got yourself a 5 minute costume!

A halloween classic! This costume is super easy to throw together using an orange shirt and some duct tape cut into eyes, a nose, and a mouth. This adorable costume inspiration comes from Hello Fashion.

3. pinterest board

Easy Last Minute DIY Halloween Costume: Pinterest Board

This might be my favorite costume idea ever. Who doesn’t love pinterest?! Sheknows really came up with a winner. All you need is something to use as a board- a cork board is ideal, but some cardboard would work just as well. Use some cute red ribbon to hang it around your neck and pin away (with real pushpins)!

4. risky business

Easy Last Minute DIY Halloween Costume: Risky Business

This costume is a classic because it’s so easy! You probably have a white button down, and if you don’t, you know someone you can borrow one from. Pair it with some shorts or boxers, crew socks, and sunglasses. This costume photo comes from HalloweenCostumes.com, but it’s so much easier to throw together yourself- and don’t forget to dance!

5. a sim

Easy Last Minute DIY Halloween Costume: The Sims

I know I’m not the only one who loved playing The Sims! Sims are easy to recognize because of the green gem over their heads- so that’s all you need for a Sim costume. Youtuber Classic Splendour gives a great tutorial on how to make an easy Sim costume with just a headband and green paper.

Studio DIY does not disappoint with this ADORABLE costume idea. With a white, pink, or brown dress and a headpiece you can become an adorable milkshake. All you need to make the whipped cream head is a headband, cotton backing, a red balloon, and red paper. Who doesn’t love a cherry on top?!

A mummy is a classic costume- and you can go the traditional way with toilet paper, or make something a little more permanent with this tutorial from PopSugar! All you have to do is cut up some old white tshirts into strips and tie them together to make a really cute mummy costume that you can use again.

9. harry potter in muggle clothes

Easy Last Minute DIY Halloween Costume: Harry Potter

We see Harry Potter costumes every Halloween- but they’re usually wizard robes. Harry wore muggle clothes all the time! Just throw on glasses and a scar, and carry a wand, and you can transform into the boy who lived. You can even carry the Maurauder’s Map or a Broomstick around to make it even more authentic.
