Wear a baseball cap and tape a leaf or snowflake to the bill of the hat. When people ask what you are, gently blow on the paper.

2. Regina George

Wear a shirt that you can cut holes in, exposing your different colored tank top underneath. Or you can tape colored construction paper circles to your chest.

3. Ceiling Fan


Pick a color theme and wear only those colors, while writing “Go Ceilings!” on your shirt or cap like a sports fan.


4. Strawberry

Wear a red outfit and tape yellow construction paper cutouts to your body for the seeds. Then, construct a stem and leaves out of green construction paper to make a hat.

5. Ladybug


Wear a red top and black leggings or pants. Then, tape black construction paper circles to your body for spots. You can even decorate a headband with pipe cleaners to make an antenna.

Safety pin an array of dryer sheets and clothes to your outfit for a fresh-out-of-the-dryer look.

Make a sign out of cardboard and write, “Nudist on Strike!” to hang around your neck with a shoelace or string.8. Brawny Man

Wear a plaid shirt tucked into jeans and a belt. You can even go unshaven and finish the look with a roll of Brawny Paper Towels.9. Tourist

All you have to do is grab a fanny pack! You can also add a Hawaiian shirt and a sun visor for this look.10. Secret Service

All you need is a sports coat and aviator sunglasses. You can even make a fake earpiece with a cotton ball and some paint.

Just wear all white and paint or tape lines across your limbs and torso. You can make the face out of a paper plate and cut out eye holes.

12. Ghost

If you're in a real time crunch, you can do a classic ghost with a sheet over your head. You could even be a 'sexy' ghost by adding a bikini over your sheet.

Take a roll of paper, or a sleeping bag, and fasten it to your back using a belt, safety pins, or the loops attached to it. You can top off this costume by adding a decorated headband with eyes.

14. Minion

Wear a yellow shirt under a pair of overalls or suspenders. You can make the goggles by taking your lab goggles and drawing or taping black rings onto them.

Write different names on a package of name tags and stick them all over your body. Easy enough, right?16. Dominoes

Wear all black or all white and cut out construction paper circles of the opposite color to tape to your shirt. This will also make an awesome group ensemble!

Wear a button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up and high waisted jeans. Top this one off with a red bandana in your hair.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
