Does anyone know any last minute tricks of the trade to make these costumes up. Please help me!

Answer 1

It occurs to me that you could make the Flintstones costumes more authentic by saving some chicken bones from your dinner, letting them dry out and then attaching them to your clothing or hair with ordinary string, or, if available, thin strips of leather.

Answer 2

1st night: don't shave a good few days before the event, then get yourself one of these fake fur blankets (dead cheap from Au Naturale or something similar) and cut it out into a caveman's dress. Put some leather belt around your waste, don't wear shoes and make sure you brush your hair backwards to create a look that give the impression you've never had your hair brushed before (works better if you have longer hair).
2nd night: get a leotard, it's that easy. Leotards are very flexible so you'll fit into it. Put some number on your back.
Final night: dead easy again, depending on what style you want. You could dress as a new romantic or later 80's: lots of badges with the smiley face sign. T-shirt in very bright colours and smiley face on it.

Answer 3

for the 1st night theme -you can wear a three fourth loose gown with polka dots etc like Flintstones and a cloth wrapped up your legs and tie it near your ankles for shoes.just make sure you keep some soft thing at the bottom of your feet so that they won't get hurt.

for the 2nd -you can wear a skin fit dress or so

for the finale day- you can wear a parallels and a funky shirt and a funky hairstyle.you can even wear a muffler and a black shoe
All The best

Answer 4

I did a cave woman costume . Bought an old pair of light brown velvet curtains (you could use old furry car seat covers) cut out a costume and to save on sewing stapled it together with a staple gun , staple on the inside so the ends face the outside and you don't get scratched. I got a bone shaped dog toy and tied that round my neck, backcombed my hair and bought an inflatable club from Toys'r'us.

Answer 5

Face paints are good, you could do do your face yellow, get some yellow hair dye/spray and do your hair spikey (got it in boots).
Then a white t shirt, red shorts and trainers and hey presto you are Bart Simpson!
