TRICK or TREAT 2016
Its my first time to experience Trick or Treat, as well as Cassie. :)
To be honest, Halloween is the least of my favorite occasions (before) because im scared of ghosts, spirits and all the stories and movies that are being shown during this time. matatakutin kasi ako.hehe
But now that I have a child, i realized Halloween can be a lot of fun too.
Because on this day -
You can be who you want to be - legally. :)
You can be a Superhero, your favorite cartoon character or even the deadliest killer you can think of.
Its all about the costume, imagination and creativity. :)
This year - i decided that Cassie and I will be Tinkerbells, and Tatay will be Peter Pan :)
Why?
its the cheapest and most available costume that i can think of. :)
FIRST - I checked out Cassie’s closet. I was trying to figure out what can i use as her costume to minimize the cost.
I saw one red dress (possible for Mulan) and one pink and this one. White on top and light green at the bottom. i thought that it can be a dress for Fairy.
So with that, I realized that Cassie and I will be Tinkerbells and Tatay will be Peter Pan.
CASSIE’s ATTIRE
Cassie’s wings, headband and wand - was bought from Divisoria for Php180.00/set.
Cassie’s dress was a gift for her during her birthday.
Cost of Cassie’s total attire is Php 180.00 :)
FOR TATAY
Tatay’s shirt is Php 30 from UKAY.
It has prints so we he worn it reversed to hide the prints.
I cut the bottom part and the sleeves to make it look worn out.
His brown pants is from his closet.
And his hat is a Green Felt Paper that i cut out triangularly and place a dried leaf (from our garden) on the side.
Total Cost for Tatay’s attire is PHP 30.00 :)
FOR ME
My Green dress is an old one from my closet (thankful it still fits).
My wings is from Divisoria. Php 80.00.
My hair was tied with plain black rubber band but i wrapped it with a Green cloth - that was cut from Tatay’s shirt.
My attire’s worth is PHP 80.00 :)
Thus, our Cost for our attires all in all is = Php 290.00!
Hurray for the savings! :)
This is the exciting part - CANDIES :)
We took part and open our gates for the giving of Candies.
We packed sets of Candies in brown paper bag with a note “Trick or Treat 2016″
And honestly, the packing itself is already a lot of fun, because Cassie was enjoying scattering all the Candies and throwing them everywhere :)
Plus, on the day itself, it was FUN roaming around the Village with your costume and going from House to house to get some pieces of Candies. :)
Kung tutuusin, pwde ka naman bumili nalang ng Candy at ilagay sa Pail mo.
But the “Joy and Fun” part of all this are...
Roaming around, meeting new friends and enjoying your Halloween costumes together.
yung mapapagod ka sa kaka-ikot, searching for a house that will make your pail earn some candies. Enjoying the thrill of seeing different Halloween costumes and decors, plus, meeting new friends along the way. :)
Now, i look forward to the next Halloween :)
Honestly, now we are thinking what would our family be next year :)
And we hope to be able to experience the essence of Trick or Treat again :)
