The (Totally DIY-able) #IceBucketChallenge Halloween Costume
Okay okay, we know we’re totally buying into the #IceBucketChallenge mania, but this was too good to pass up. We know you’re all thinking about how to pull off the best Halloween costume of the season, something that’s funny and modern and as far away from that M&Ms group costume you pulled off last year. And we have just the thing.
You already know how much we love our DIY and pop culture costumes, and this one really takes the cake (ice?) for being timely. Pair your favorite outfit with this bucket, faux water film, white tulle studded with faux ice cubes, and an ice cube tray. Or, as we prefer, simply make your own! All it takes is some white fabric, some glue skills, and a little creativity. You could even show up in wet clothes if you wanted (but we imagine that would be kind of uncomfortable).
We’ve been so inspired by all of those #IceBucketChallenge videos that a costume seems like the perfect way to bring it all home. And guess what? This $40 costume ALSO benefits ALS. Win, win!
We recommend planning out some speeches, walking around with a video camera, and pretending to nominate all your friends for a dunk under your “ice” waterfall. The potential for humor and raising awareness is just endless.
Would you wear this #IceBucketChallenge costume? Or is it too much at this point? Let us know your thoughts below!
