Why not recycle them?

davy_jones_costume_adultCostumes that is – people go out and spend a fortune on them each year and with more and more events where people are dressing up either for fun or because they are required to it can seem never ending! Most people also seem to have this idea that an outfit or costume can only be worn once.

So why not find a way to recycle or return them – and by recycle I don’t mean literally, I mean like maybe creat a swap group at your work or in your group of friend – so when you are done with a costume hand it in and select a new one from the others your friends have handed in themselves.

I found a site that has loads of information on holiday costume returns at Costume-returns.com – they let you know exactly what items are returnable and what are not. Mascots for example cannot be returned.

The site also has loads of links to other related sites and I found lots of really cool costume sites from there. With halloween now over I guess it’s time to start thinking about New Years Eve as that’s the next event I would usually dress up in a costume for :)
