Halloween and Party Costumes Made by Debbie Colgrove Through the Years

By Debbie Colgrove, About.com Guide

This was a year of card board boxes and pie plates. We added an old distributor cap on the top box and ran the wires to the ears (tart size pie plates). We taped flash lights inside the box to light up colored panels in the front pie plate. An old car antenna on the shoulder made him a remote control robot. In future years we added dryer vent hoses over the arms to make the robot even more authentic.
