I decided to have fun and join my girls in the town Halloween bash. I decided to go as a piece of furniture. What better to go as then a bedside table from an Ol’ Lady’s house…LOL
For this homemade bed side table with lamp costume, I took an old box and turned it upside down and cut it to look like it had legs. I then painted it brown with black outlining and glued drawer knobs to it. I stuck pantyhose out the “top” drawer to liven up the effect. I then painted a lace doily on top and glued various items to be fitting for an ol’ lady: pill bottle, bobby pins, fake prescription paper, flower and a pic of the ol’ lady’s hubby. Too bad I didn’t have any dentures otherwise I would have added those too… hehehe.
I then made a homemade Victorian lampshade out of coat hangers and fancy fabric with bead embellishments. “Hey! where’s the nearest REST HOME???” The ol’ Lady’s furniture has run off!!!
so creative! good job!
The box really looks like wood– what a great job! Very creative! Too Cool!!
I have seen similar costumes. When someone asks you who you are, you answer ” a ONE_NIGHT STAND!!
