Step 1Make the costume

Make the costume
To make this costume I purchased two pumpkins. One slightly lager than my head and another larger than my waist. For the hat: I cut out a hole the size of my head, cleaned out the stringy bits and seeds and wore it. For the "pants" I cut a hole through one side of the pumpkin and out the other, removed the gunk and put it on.

Please don't tell me you were running around in the nude with only a hat!!!! Yuck. That's worse than when I got my braces yesterday. Gross. Keep your pants on, literally.

I don't think many moms would want you giving their kids candy. Good idea though!

I don't like thinking he made food out of the excess materials. I hope I never get fed any of THAT juju. Cool costume though, a bit disturbing, well, let me rephrase that, about as disturbing as it can possibly get. Yep. That's more like it.

Very Unique...I might need to get the eye soap though

A little from A, a little from B

thats pretty creative, but i would pass on the soup and pies, it has some extra "flavorings" in it lol
Oct 29, 2007. 12:45 PMjongscx says:
You know... I'm pretty thankful that the Stem was trimmed flush with the fruit...
Oct 29, 2007. 12:05 PMDanielfish says:
Lol, it sounds delicious. I really hope that's a 'Hello, my name is' sticker! It would just complete the whole outfit! Although, maybe you could have done with pump(kin)s for your feet.
