Food

Oreo Cookie: Cut two large circles of cardboard, spray paint them black, and glue on white cotton balls to spell Oreo. Tie the two pieces together and slip over your head, and wear all white underneath for the cream filling. Carry a plastic pumpkin full of Oreos to give to your friends and you'll be the hit of the party!

A friend of mine took a wicker basket and cut the bottom out. He wore a shirt with tropical fruit on it. He filled the area between his body and the basket with plastic fruits he got a Wal Mart. Then he put(this is a true story) a pumpkin (do you know how heavy and hot a pumpkin is after four or five hours) on his head. He then declared he was a basket of fruit. He was a major hit. I still have the shirt

Black-eyed pea: Just put black make-up under your eye and pin the Letter "P" to your shirt.

Super Big Gulp: You need 6 people, 2 to dress as bread, 1 lettuce, 1 tomato, 1 cheese , 1 bacon, 1 turkey. If you have a lot of friends you can go as a sub!

pumpkin: Last year I took some orange material sewed it into a tube, then attached two green tubes for arms, made a green collar, made an orange hat and presto! My son went as a pumpkin. I added the eyes to the hat, painted his nose black! You could pad it for warmth as I did--simple draw string design. Vision clear, and not cumbersome for walking and easy removal and clean-up!! Hope this helps for ideas!!

Super Big Gulp: All you need is red and white construction paper and a poster tube.

Any canned soft drink: Easy to make with cardboard.

Green bean: Wear green clothes and green cardboard for the head.

M & M: Colorful cardboard again.

Pez Dispenser:

A grape: wear a green body suit with tights of matching color..and buy purple balloons...attach them to the suit with double stick tape

Baked potato... wrap up in foil

a bag of jelly beans....you need a clear trash bag and some waterbaloons. Put on trash bags (my son wore red tights and a red sweathirt and shorts....) blow up water ballons until you have enough to fill the bag. Staple the top shut. If you want with paint or a marker write "brock's Jelly Beans" on the front and a UPC code bar on the back.

A Bunch of Grapes: Attach purple or green balloons to your shirt and pants (and stay away from sharp objects!).

A friend of mine once got some cheesecloth and some autumn leaves and made himself into a teabag! All he needed was some heavy twine and cardboard to make a Tetley teabag with the little cute saying on it.

What's for Dinner?: Take a box, at least as wide as your shoulders. Cut the top off, cut a hole in the bottom. Take an old tablecloth, cutting a hole in the middle, and place it on the box. Glue or tape it down. Then tape plastic dishes, silverwear and glasses to the top. Add a napkin, some condiments and a centerpiece and you are a walking dining room table.

Hershey Kiss

Hugs and Kisses candy

Hershey's Kiss: Built a cone shaped thing I could wear around my shoulders.... and a pointed hat with a piece of white paper coming out of the top.

You can be a chocolate-covered raisin, just get some dark pantyhose and a brown 30-gallon hefty bag. Put holes in the bag for your arms and legs and tie the bag around your neck. Great laughs and simple.

Drape yourself in red and pasta-colored yarn. Attach "meatballs" also made of yarn!
