Holiday costumes are here and it’s that time of year again to get excited and ready for trips to the malls, office parties and hosting one at home. The festivities begin the day after Thanksgiving and go through the new year.
Here are some wonderful costume ideas that you can wear for all these occasions.
The most famous costume is Santa Claus, of course. To get the jolly costume, plan ahead and order online, or you can rent it from a costume store. They will have everything you need to make you look like the ho, ho, ho man.
Just know that with the Santa suit, if you start looking before Halloween, you’ll be able to find it. But if you decide to do this at the last minute, you can always look at stores that sell Christmas lights and other Christmas products.
Santa always needs a helper to hand out that wonderful candy cane after the kids see the big guy. The elf is the second best person in the Christmas season. They are helpful and funny, and they always let the kids see Santa.
There are green suits and big shoes that help topped off with a little green hat. And of course you have to paint a little red on your cheeks so that you look as happy as possible. The green stockings help to finish off the outfit.
Who takes Santa and the elves to the mall? He is the famous reindeer! They have these costumes available at the costume shop. If you’re good at sewing, all you need is a brown fur cloth and a big red nose for the most famous of them all.
Mrs. Claus is the right hand that keeps everything running smoothly. You need a red ankle-length dress, a white lace apron, and an antique hat that looks like the one pioneers wore to bed at night. You always want to put a small red circle on each cheek to make it look rosy.
Angels are very easy costumes to make. Get a white robe, put on a gold wrap around your waist, a beautiful gold halo on top of your head, and some really pretty wings on your back.
It’s always nice to sing with Frosty the snowman in the snow. It would be easy to find on the internet. Frosty would be nice to have at an office party or a party you’re having for the kids. They would love to have it. Just make sure he has a big black top hat with a flower on it. Add a pipe and you’re done.
The Grinch Who Stole Christmas is always a great costume for office parties, kids’ parties, or when you have one in your house. If you do house one, remember that it is green with fur all over it and is mean at first. When he’s nice you can put a big heart on his chest to say I’m nice and I love Christmas.
Churches always have children do events with the nativity. Characters include the famous Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus. You also have the floating angels and the wise men who have important roles in these scenes. With the animals you have camels, goats, horses, lambs.
When it comes to making the nativity scenes, they are usually made by hand by the children of the church. This allows them to take pride in what they did for themselves.
Christmas themed costume parties are very popular now. Just throw a party and have everyone dress up in the character they love the most and have a wonderful theme party. Dressing up isn’t just for Halloween and kids anymore.
Remember that the Christmas season is for fun and being at a themed party where everyone wears a Christmas costume will be festive and will be remembered for a long time.
