We mostly bought or put together costumes from things they already owned. Once in a while I made or embellished when we couldnt find what we wanted for a reasonable price, but that was mostly easy things like decorating a too-plain witch's hat for my daughter or making a costume from a cardboard box when my son wanted to go as a Rubik's cube. I came from a family where we always created costumes from things we had around the house, and I remember wanting store-bought costumes as a kid so that's what I did for my kids.
