Ask your girlfriends from other colleges if any of their friends had creative costumes from the previous year. When you’re bored, Google costumes or make a list of a bunch of ideas, that way you can look out for supplies when you’re out shopping or doing earrands. The best tip I have is to be creative. Put aside some time to browse different consignment stores like Goodwill or Savers. The less money you spend, the more fun you will have making your costume.
