— DIY COUPLES COSTUMES —
-Bob Ross and a happy little tree (Or a painting!)
*For Bob: A part of jeans, a button-up long sleeved shirt, and a large (afro-style) wig! Add a palette (can make out of cardboard) and paint brush, and you’re all set!
*For the happy little tree: Use a brown dress from your closet (or check the thrift store, then grab some strands of artificial leaves (most dollar stores will have them) and pin them to the dress! Decorate a hat with some leaves, too, so your head is covered in foliage!
*For a painting: Either get a canvas from a craft store and create a landscape painting on it, then cut a hole through for your face), OR check out a thrift store for a pice of a artwork that can be easily cut to make a place for your face!

-Cruella de Vil and a Dalmatian
Who doesn’t love Cruella and her 100 pups? Oh, everybody. Grab your fave black dress, a sharpie, and some old white clothes to create this couple’s costume.
Head to a thrift store or H&M to find a white top and white jeans for the base of this dog costume. Use black fabric paint to create different sized spots all over the piece. Use ribbon or felt to create a dog collar and finish off the costume with dog ears and a tail. For makeup, use black and white face paint to create a black eye, extra spots and a black nose.
Cruella’s costume is pretty simple — black dress, long red gloves and a Cruella wig. A fur coat is a must but if you can’t find one, stick with a piece of fur fabric. Top off the costume with a long cigarette holder, red lips and an evil laugh.
-Soap and Loofah
Couples costumes that are nothing but nice, clean fun! For Him: Although you could create a soap sign to wear, to make it easier, use a white T-shirt and write ‘Soap’ with marker large on the T-shirt. You can add bubbles as well! For Her: To create the loofah look, you will need roughly 16-20 yards of tulle or netting. Using a tight tank top and shorts, dress, leotard or romper and LOTS of safety pins, start wrapping your tulle around your tight apparel and securing it with the pins.
*For another way to create this look, check out this video: https://www....v=xTgRwYXnb8E
-Peanut Butter and Jelly
For Him: A brown T-shirt with the emblem of your favorite peanut butter brand taped across the chest. For Her: A purple (for grape flavor) or red (for strawberry or raspberry flavor) T-shirt and your favorite jelly brand taped across your chest. Bam! DIY couples costumes to make everyone hungry and nostalgic.
