Then whatever I was missing I tried to borrow form someone else or buy at a cheap store. Now I'm all ready for Halloween. Trick or Treat!

Take ideas from them and write them down. Then go around looking for the items you liked. But don't spend a fortune on this because it's only for halloween! :-) Report Spam or Abuse RE: Pirate Costume Idea Post By Becki in Indiana (Guest Post) (10/15/2007) Another good prop is a telescope -- paint a cardboard tube from a roll of paper towel, or carry a child's kaleidoscope.

Have fun.

Really any big short, with a big belt (or rope) and an earring and dark pants with or without stockings - and shoes with a buckle (or boots) and maybe a period military jacket thrown on can make a pirate - Once I used an Avon bottle shaped like a gun of the time -but now you can find those things in the dollar store!

Find an old pair of jeans or slacks and roll them up to your knees, or cut jagged edges in them. Wear knee high socks, tights or a pair of long johns under the pants. Find an old pair of shoes or boots. Find a shirt that is a few sizes too big and then wear a belt or sash over the shirt so that is nice and baggy. Wear a bandanna on your head and make your own eye patch using string and cardboard (just paint the cardboard black). Finally, get some clip-on hoop earrings to finish off the costume. Answers: RE: Pirate Costume Idea Pirate costumes are a lot of fun and are incredibly easy to make. all you need is: A bandanna Thick ribbon old black pants or jeans a striped shirt or white blouse eye patch (or use black felt and string) big wooden beads hoop earrings black and red eyeliner take the shirt and pants and fray the edges, put the bandanna on the pirates head and the thick ribbon (preferably red) and tie it around the pirates waste as a sash, dress up with some beads and draw some scars with the eye liner. To make a sword cut a sword shape out of cardboard and wrap it in foil. for extra effect carry around a old bottle and put a stuffed bird (from any craft store) and attach it to your shoulder with wire (10/23/2006) By mad Report Spam or Abuse
