How to Pick a Clown Costume

Choosing a clown costume for either a Halloween party, for your job at the circus, or for a birthday party can be a fun event. When you pick your clown costume, you want to be sure that the costume is reflective of the clown's personality. For example, if you want to be a fairy clown, choose some wings. If your clown is going to be silly, choose some funny props.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. Choose a clown costume that fits the personality that you want your clown to convey. If you are going to be a rainbow clown, be sure to buy clothing that is very colorful and sparkly.

2. Pick out some makeup to accent your clown costume. This is a very important part of your costume. You may choose to paint your entire face, or just paint on some hearts, rainbows, or flowers on your face. You may want to buy some glitter for your face too.

3. Accessorize your clown costume with some fun props to help your routine go a bit more smoothly. If you plan on doing some magic, pick out a magic hat, some colorful scarves, and some playing cards.

4. Choose some shoes that match your outfit. Some clowns like to wear oversized shoes, while still others like to go barefoot. Decide if this option is for you.

5. Get creative. You don't want to look like all the other clowns in your area, so purchase some accessories and clothing so that you will stand out. If you are unique, people will remember you.
