Article: Choose a gown or long t-shirt very light in color. A nice dress, robe or nightgown makes for a great angel costume, but a long t-shirt can also look the part with the right perks; the trick is to achieve an elegant and/or flowing effect. A light color will help keep your costume "angelic." Aim for white, light blue, a light yellow or mint green for color. Color hues that are warm, inviting, and comforting mimic light sources that have the same effect. Go all out this year and make your angel costume do the same. Remember, you're an angel the flagship of goodness and kindness. Try your best to keep the gown as modest as possible (no white cocktail dresses) or else run the risk of being a devil in disguise! Decide on what type of wings you'd like your angel costume to have. Wings come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and materials that are only limited by your imagination. The type of wing you choose will determine what resources you'll need in making them a reality. Does your angel costume have a fairy wings? Maybe your angel costume is a bit more traditional and requires standard angel wings? Or maybe you're aiming for something more unique and would like to have balloon wings? Go all out this year and have a memorable set of wings that will have your friends asking how they were made. Wings only have to be as fancy as you choose them to be. A simple, inexpensive idea is to gather poster board material and cut it into the right shape. With the right amount of tweaks, these can look just as good and be crafted without breaking the bank. It's not necessary for the colors of the wings to match your gown exactly, but aim to keep the colors on a similar scale to really unite the costume. You can also go the exact opposite route to have contrasting wings that really stand out. To get those feathery wings, purchase artificial white feathers and glue a whole bunch of them onto a half heart cardboard, repeat for the other wing. Imagine what sort of halo you'd like for your angel costume and get to work on making it a reality. Like wings, a halo can come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors that is only limited by your imagination and ability to craft it. A simple, inexpensive idea is using a gold or silver pipe cleaner. It's easy to bend one of decent length into the shape of a halo. What's more, it's easy to combine several into a halo of decent length and girth. You can try basic combinations of common household items to create the halo, such as gold paper and a wire that you can tie it on, or a wire and gold pipe cleaner. Halloween, party supply stores, and even larger grocery stores carry several types of glow-stick and glowing ring materials perfect for crafting halos.
