We’re officially over halfway through October and you know what that means, Halloween is just around the corner! We’re incredibly excited for Halloween here at the MoC office and have been brainstorming our Halloween costume ideas for weeks now.
We thought of all the usual Halloween fancy dress ideas that you see every year, witches, mummies, werewolves etc. But then we thought, why not go for a bit more of a colourful costume? Colour powder isn’t just for fun runs or festivals; it can transform your Halloween into a colourful spectacle.
So if you’re searching for last minute, easy Halloween costume ideas for kids or adults, don’t worry because we’ve got you covered. Let’s bring some colour to this Halloween!
Colourfuk Skeleton Halloween Costume Ideas
A skeleton is a simple, yet effective costume and screams Halloween. But who says they have to be black and white? We definitely don’t! Ditch the boring old monochromatic skeleton costume and instead grab some of our vibrant colour powder, a black t-shirt and black trousers.
Draw out your skeleton design on the t-shirt and trousers with some glue and pour the powder over. Once dried and ready to be worn, paint your face with a spooky skeleton head and there you have it, a scary, simple but electrifying Halloween costume!
Dia de los Muertos Costume Ideas
The Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) is a holiday traditionally celebrated in Mexico, full of life and colour. It’s common during this celebration for people to paint their faces with a colourful sugar skull design, wear bright clothing and floral headbands and hats.
Taking inspiration from this vibrant celebration will make for a fun, easy and colourful Hallowen costume, creating a chance to get a bit creative with your sugar skull face paint.
80s Pop Star Halloween Costume Ideas
Travel back in time to the era of neon with this easy 80s pop star Halloween costume idea. Our tip is that the more colour you can include, the better for this costume! Think bright legwarmers, neon leotards or t-shirts and of course, you can’t forget the accessories. You’ll need a neon pair of sunglasses for sure, bold jewellery and a headband to match your big hairstyle.
Artist Halloween Costume Ideas
Now this one may be the simplest Halloween costume out of the bunch, but it’s still a colourful consideration. Turn yourself into your own living work of art by starting with an apron or some oversized clothing. Then, here comes the fun part! Taking some of our colour powder (choose any colours you like) throw them all over the clothing like paint splatters and with the addition of a paint palette and a brush as props, you’ve got the perfect, easy to put together costume for Halloween night.
Additional Ways To Make Your Halloween Colourful
Unique Halloween Party Decorations
Planning a Halloween party? Colour powder can take your decorations to the next level. Use it to craft spooky centrepieces, fill jars, or even create funky table runners. You can layer different colours in glass containers to mimic potions brewing in a cauldron.
Spooky Games & Fun Activities for Kids
Kids love hands-on activities, and playing with colour powder can be a blast at any kind of gathering. Create a mini colour party with a safe, supervised throw fest. Let kids toss colour powder at each other while wearing white T-shirts. It’s a fantastic way to get them laughing and having fun. Consider a scavenger hunt where children hunt for sweets and each time they one, a burst of colour is released into the air. You can also play a spooky version of dodgeball, where players throw colour powder-filled bags instead of balls. It’s the fun twists on classic games that add an exciting vibe everyone will remember.
Halloween Crafts with Rangoli
Crafting is another fun way to incorporate colour powder into a colourful Halloween. You can create bright Halloween-themed art with our Rangoli art kits and glue. Just think: spooky ghosts or spooky trees that can come alive with colour! Not only will this keep you busy, but it also lets your inner artist shine.
So, there you have it! With these colourful and vibrant Halloween ideas, you can let your creativity run wild. Well guys, gals and ghouls, we hope you all have a colourful and spooktacular Halloween! May your night be full of scares, laughter and plenty of sweets and chocolate!
