Making a refrigerator costume

    29 ratings       Rate this article:  1  2  3  4  5 

How many witches, ghosts, werewolves, and Batman costumes will you see during Halloween parties and on trick or treat outings?

You can stand out from the crowd by turning into a refrigerator!

  • Pick up a used refrigerator box from an appliance store, such as Best Buy.
  • Cut handholds in the sides to lift and maneuver the box. You could also attach straps so that the box is carried on your shoulders.
  • Cut out the door(s). Since these boxes can be large and unwieldy, you might want to have a friend inside to help maneuver. Then you could become a side-by-side refrigerator!
  • Use a small, lightweight board to brace along the bottom of the door side of the box. Use duct tape, which will be your friend on this project.
  • Cut out an ice dispenser to use as a view port. A second person could use a TV screen as a view port on the other door. For safety, also cut small view holes in the sides and back.
  • Glue on cardboard gift wrap tubing for the outside door handle(s).
  • Paint and adorn the outside to look like a refrigerator.
  • Paint the inside white, and adorn the inside walls and inside of the door(s) with food photos from magazines
  • When the doors open, turn on a flashlight or mount a battery-operated light inside.
  • Inside, wear all white clothes.
