This homemade costume for couples entered our 2014 Halloween Costume Contest.

A word from Samantha, the 'Bonnie & Clyde' costume creator:

My boyfriend and I decided to dress up as Bonnie and Clyde this Halloween. We were inspired by a TV series about the couple and the fact that they met their demise here in Dallas, where we reside! Most of our costume was clothes that we already had in our closet, but we also bought a few pieces from party shops and spray-painted our fake weapons. Our favorite part of the costume was a homemade wanted poster! We've seen other couple dress as Bonnie and Clyde, but we wanted to make our costumes special and unique. The wanted poster was a huge hit with everybody and definitely made us standout! Just like Bonnie and Clyde would've wanted....

How was the poster made?

I used a hard cardboard for the border and cut the hole in the middle. Then found 𠇊ged-looking” paper to glue on top. I printed the letters in black, cut them out and then mod podged then letters on top (although you may be able to find stickers). Then finally burned the edges of the paper with a lighter.

I'd say it took about 2-3 hours in total, but definitely worth it :)

Very cool. Thanks for the inspo. However, Bonnie and Clyde died in Louisiana.
