Here’s 5 Halloween costumes to make in 5 minutes with just a printer

Halloween is tomorrow which means everyone can finally debut their costumes that have taken extensive planning and time.

But you still don’t have anything put together.

Not to fear — our reporters are here with five simple costumes you can put together in just five minutes with the help of a printer.

1. The ceiling fan

For this costume, all you need is a regular set of clothes and a print out of “Go ceiling!” If you have some pom-poms, that’s an added bonus. Cheer on the ceiling to become the best ceiling fan for Halloween.

2. It’s raining men!

Dress up in your best rain coat and rain boots for this costume. Then, cover an umbrella in photos of men. If you don’t have a rain coat or boots, you can simply decorate the umbrella. If you don’t have any of these items, put enough mousse in your hair to make it look wet and tape the photos to your clothes.

3. Fork in the road

This costume doesn’t really need a printer unless you don’t have a fork. If you don’t have a fork, print out a photo of a fork. Cut out rectangles and attach them to the middle of your shirt. Then, pick a spot to attach the fork. Your shirt will look like a road, and there will be a fork in it. Voila!

4. When life gives you lemons

Print out photos of lemons and the word “life” to create an easy but clever costume. Attach the word “life” to the middle of your shirt. Then, attach as many lemons as you want (we recommend 3 to 5). If you have the time, stop by the store and grab a few lemons to give out on Halloween.

5. Formal apology

This costume requires a little more formal attire. Dress up in your nicest clothes, and print out the word “apology.” Attach the word “apology” to front of your outfit to complete your formal apology costume.
