Halloween is all about the surprise and creativity that goes into costume making. People will spend months in preparation for Halloween gathering supplies and materials to handmake the costume they've imagined. As a result, the hard work can be displayed at parties and later on Halloween night where the gratification of having a great costume derives from the number of compliments and candy gathered. The best way to highlight the hard work and dedication put into costume design is by hosting a costume contest. There, you will be able to judge contestants based on originality, homemade effort, how scary, and the, funniest. Each category will have a winner therefore a perfect prize to match the occasion would be to create a spooky basket! Inside the spooky basket, you can place an array of all kinds of treats such as chocolate, granola bars, lollipops, and Krispy treats. These snacks are easy-to-carry and since they are small they can be shared with everyone. Let's say your no giving out gifts during a costume contest rather you want it to be more personalized.
