Feeling the dollar pinch this Halloween season? Skip the pricey costumes that your kids will only wear once and get creative with what you already have. A leotard, leggings or sweatsuit is all it takes to form the foundation of these awesome, easy―and completely affordable―kid costumes.

Bunch of Grapes
For a fun, frugal, and fruity costume that you can pull together while watching an episode of Project Runway, dress your little kid as a bunch of grapes.

Start with: Purple or green sweatsuit or leotard, green or purple balloons, brown tights or leggings

Add on: It's really this easy: Blow up small purple or green balloons and carefully pin the ends of them to your kid's sweatsuit or leotard, and you’re all set.

Share your kid's Halloween look for a chance to win $500!
